turing the Grand Prix de Paris and
the Arc de Triomphe stakes, the
two richest fixtures OF the French
turf, was the most successful owner
of the fiat racing season just CLOSED.
Upon Mr.. Mills also devolved the
honor of owning the acknowledged
champion horse of the year.
His Kantar, nervous, high
strung son OF Alcantara out of ka-
rabe, received the practically
unanimous vote of horsemen as "the
King of the French Turf for 1928"
And Kantar did not win the
Grand Prix, blue ribbon of the
French tracks. A favorite in the
future books to win the event, Kan
tar developed some ailment a few
days before the race and his stable
mate, Cri de Guerre, who had been
trained to make the early pace for
Kantar, ran to orders in the Grand
Prix, made all the early pace, and
forgot to stop and came on and won.
There are four really big races,
fixtures of the French 'ncing season.
in which the aristocratlc blue
blood of thoroughbreds may be test
ed and which owners strive to win.
They are: The French Derby at
Chantilly, the Grand Prix de Paris.
the Arc de Triomphe stokes and
the Municipal Council stakes, the
last three all being disputed at
Longchamp.
Two owners divided the victories.
Count de Rivaud'S LIE Correge was
first in the Derby and his Balmoral
gladdened the hearts OF the Paris
aldermen. who had backed his
chances Is to in the Municipal
Council stakes.
Mr.. Mills accounted for the other
two big races.
One American, one Frenchman,
ruled the French turf.
1t recalled the days before the
war, when the late w X. Wander
bilt was giving the Baron de Roth
schild. Edmond Blanc, Achille
Fould and other prominent French
stables q great race for first honors.
A. X. Macomber who purchased
the stable of Mr.. Vanderbilt, had a

turf. Ralph Beaver Strassburger
