could be called a national habit.
From time to time in the last half
century several American owners have
strived to capture some of England's
most important races and their efforts
have not been unrewarded In the
course OF these years American-bred
horses have won The Two Thousand
Guineas, The One Thousand Guineas,
The EPSON Derby, The EPSON Oaks,
The Doncaster st. Leger, The San
down Eclipse Stakes, The Jockey Club
Stakes, The Grand National Steeple-
chase and The Coronation Cup.
Ascot Gold Cup Elusive.
A much-sought-after English classic.
The Ascot Gold Cup. has been the
hardest Of all for American owners
to capture. In 1929 Mrs. John Hertz
shipped her American champion,
Reign Count, to England and he fin
ished second in the Ascot Gold Cup
In 1885 the imported Alcazar ran
second and in 1886 William Wood
wards great colt Omaha proved him.
self one Of the best stayers in Eng
land, finishing second in the Ascot
Gold Cup after one of the most sem
sational finishes in the history Of that
noted race. Omaha was a most un-
luckily beaten horse.
Let's turn the pages of turf his
tory back five years. 1t was in 1893
during the month of October, with the
races at Laurel, that a shipment of
some 20 foals just weaned from their
mothers were walking along the road
from Bowie Station to the Beiair
Farm. One Of them, a rather awk-
ward and rangy bay colt, out of
Flambino by Gallant Fox, was point
ed out as the most likely prospect of
the lot. This foal, ladies and gentle
men, was none other than Flares.
Flares = Joy to Woodward.
Flares quickly developed into a
strapping big colt and gave such
promise that William Woodward, mas
ter of Belair, shipped him to England
and the Newmarket Stables OF Capt.
Cecil Boyd -Rochfort. He was given
plenty of time to develop and started
only twice as a 2-year-old. These
races were high-class affairs but
Flares was only getting education. At
3 he still was a maiden and still
growing like a weed. This year he
graduated, winning the Newmarket
Stakes at mile and quarter and
finished second in the Champion
Stakes. following this up with VIC
tory in the Ormonde Plate. He
started six times in all at 5.
In 1887 Flares went port
ward eight times and five
times he raced to clean-cut VIC
tories.
His wins were accomplished in the
Burwell Stakes at III miles, the
Prince of Wales Stakes at the same
route. The Dullingham Stakes also
at the IL -mile distance was his next
score, followed by victory in the 134-
mile Lowther Stakes. He closed his
campaign by winning the X mile
Champion Stakes.
This year he started in that most
coveted of all cup races, the Ascot
Gold Cup. Ten thoroughbreds accept

edge in this top-heavy field. Gifted

Fighting Fox "Quits" After
Seven FurIongs-Four

NEW YORK, July 16.-Shattering
a track record In her first triumph of
the year, william Ziegler. jr.'s 6-year-
Old mare Esposa today defeated IL
other stalwarts of the turf in the
$4,000 Butler Handicap at Empire
City.
With Lucky Nicky" Wall on her
back. the daughter of Espino tri-
umphed by half length to pay to l
after running the mile and three-six-
teenths in 1:573s, three-flfths Of a
second faster than the record estab-
lished by Good Gamble in winning
the 1896 running of the stake.
Mrs. Louise Viau's Rex Flag, a
20-to-l chance, was second, followed
by Mrs. Parker Corning's Thanksgiv-
ing and Ogden Phipps' Teufel The
first four horses crossed the line half
lengths apart.
Fighting Fox Disappoints.
Esposa, which closed out her 1887
campaign by whipping the mighty
Seabiscuit, earned $l9,4o0 for her
first victory in six starts this season.
William Woodward's Swear -old star
Fighting Fox, coupled with Teufel and
Isolater and favorite at to S, failed
to run back to his recent encouraging
race behind Stagehand. Gallant Fox's
brother made most of the running only
to curl up at the end of furlongs.
He finally finished tenth.
Thanksgiving led around the first
turn but was replaced by Fighting Fox
on the backstretch. Mrs. Ethel D.
Jacobs 9-year-old Action also was a
vital factor in the early stages while
Rex Flag showed more speed than
usual to stay within close range.
Esposa Proves Game.
Meanwhile, Esposa was in tight
quarters going around the first turn
but Wall, who has habit of
winning big stakes, got her clear of
trouble entering the backstretch. Wall
steered the shortest way home and
when the Fox called quits at the top
of the stretch, Esposa gained a narrow
lead.
Rex Flag, Thanksgiving and Teufel
were still in the thick of the fight
but Esposa, with her well-known bull
dog courage, refused to give an inch
