the Associated Press by sports
leaders, based on 1880 prospects.
BY ALGERNON DAINGERFIELD
(Secretary Of the Jockey Club
NEW YORK, Jan. 1l-Pl-The
coming meeting OF the Miami JOG
key club at Hialeah Park stands out
as the greatest forward step TO be
made in American racing during
1880.
Outlook for the success OF the
Florida track under its new owner
ship Of Joseph Z. Widener and as
sociates is the brightest star ON the
turf's horizon. Winter racing has al
ways been a necessity, especially
to the owner. who is required TO
make his stable pay expenses. Un-
der new management Miami should
show to the citizens Of Florida what
real, high class racing is and can
be.
Calendar Prctentious
The schedule Of racing dates as
Just allotted by the Jockey club
shows the confidence OF the direc-
tors Of the parent turf governing
body of America in the success OF
the sport during the current year.
with the addition of IL racing days,
1t is the most pretcntious calendar
since 1906.
Entries TO the stakes just closed
by the Westminster and Saratoga
racing associations and the Mary
land Jockey club show a material
increase in the number OF NOM
inator5. Especially pleasing is the
class ownership. AS never before,
many women, prominent socially in
New York and elsewhere. are TO be
found among the nominators for the
principal stake events,
Breeding Interest
Notable also il the increase In
nominations for the produce stake
events to be run in 1891 and 1892.
This shows a real interest in breed
ing, which, after all, is the back
bone of racing.
To furnish better facilities to the
public and horSemcn, tracks all over
the country are undergoing i'm
proyements. With the continued bet
terment and Identification Of Bel
mont Park and Saratoga; New Or
leans added stakes and improved
courses, the year 1880 should be a
model one in turf history.
1929 Successful
The year Just past was success
full from every angle. There were
many great horses. especially two
year-olds, which augurs well for the
three-year-old stakes Of the current
year. Deaths among prominent
turfmen were OF course deplorable.
but others stand ready TO take their
places.
The reconstructed Arlington Park.
| Lincoln Fields. Washington Park
and Hawthorne brought racing in
the middle-west strongly to the fore.
Patronage afforded the Chicago
tracks proved that racing has been
revived permanently in the great
middle-west.
The registration OF foals the past
year was the greatest ever received
at the Jockey club. This indicates
that the supply OF horses for years
to come will be adequate for the in
creased number Of race courses.
On the Pacific coast the construc-
ton and opening OF the beautiful
Aqua Caliente course shows renew
ed interest In the sport OF the kings
among the far we~sterners. Aqua
Caliente is described as the most
beautiful racing plant in the world.

sportsmen all over the country. as
