HILDRETH TO SHIFT
RACING ACTIVITIES
TO ENGLISH TURF
Louis Winans Has Made Him OF.
fer to Train His
Stable. AZ
NEW YORK. Sept. s.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.
TT was news IN racing circles to-
day hat Sam c. Hildreth, the
leading winning owner of the
American turf this season, will in all
probability campaign in England next
year. Moreover. he may go abroad not
as an owner, but as a trainer. He has
under consideration an offer from
Louis winans to take charge of the
latter's stable In Great Britain next
year.
Hildreth has no wealth nor source of
income other than what he makes by
his own brain and hands, and as the
outlook for racing in this country next
season is not sharply enough defined to
warrant the maintenance of a big
string of horses, he has expressed HIM
self as not unwilling to go abroad and
accept at a big salary the position OF
trainer.
At any rate, Hildreth will this fall
dispose of his present string of racers,
r~eserving only Fitz Herbert, the cham
pion racer of America, and Novelty, the
Futurity winner.
