AMERICAN HORSES IS ENGLAND. American-bred horses cut a vary respectable figure in England last year, though successful in capturing only one of what are considered the leading events of the English turf. The stake referred to is the Middle Park Plate, won by Caiman. Most of the success achieved fell either to Mr. Pierre Lorillards separate stable or to that in which Tie was jointly interested with Lord William Beresford. The Horse Fancier has compiled the following account of the doings of all the American horses that won during the year. Mr. Lorillards stable showing was as follows : Races.

Glancing at the more important successes, we find that in Mr. Loriliards lot Myakka won the Lancaster Nursery at Manchester, the First October and Prendergast at Newmarket, besides dead-heating for the Great Sapling Plate at Sandown Park. Dominie II. scored his principal successes in the Exeter, Granby Plate and Chereley at Newmarket. Elfin won the Bur-well at Newmarket, the St. Albans Handicap at Nottingham, and the Newmarket October Welter Handicap. Sandia won the second year of the Thirty-fifth New Biennial at Ascot, of which he also won the first running in 1897. Chinook won the Nassau Stakes, the big filly event of Goodwood week. Illogics chief success was in the valuable Waterloo Selling Nursery Handicap at Kempton Park, while Dracos victory for Mr. Lorillard was in the Autumn i Selling Plate at Hurst Park. Of Lord Beresfords American-bred winners, , Caiman is easily first in importance, as well as i in money won, by his victory in the Middle i Park Plate. Previous to this, he had won a very - nice stake, the Glearwell, earlier in the same i week, and a fortnight later he ran Frontier to a head for the Dewhurst Plate at nine pounds i disadvantage in the weights. Tarolintas brace i of successes was scored in rapid succession at ; , i , i i - i i i ; Lowes, where she won the Astley Stakes and Priory Stakes on successive days at the Summer Meeting. Diakka won only the Esher Handicap Stakes at Sandown Park in the spring, as ! the handicappers took good care of him. Jiffy II. scored her principal success in the Eton Handicap at Windsor. Mr. August Belmont won three races with the American-bred three-ynar-old Bridegroom II., by Rayon dOr St. Bridget, by St. Simon. The colts most important success for the. "scarlet, maroon sleeves, black cap" was the Peveril of the Peak Stakes at Derby. The total value of Bridegroom II. s wins for Mr. Belmont was ,685, but, as we all know, when the colt passed into tin hands of Mr. L. da Rothschild, being thereafter known as Golden Bridge, she scored throe important successes in the First and Second Limekiln at Newmarket and the Lancashire Handicap at Manchester. Mr. Richard Croker won the Hassocks Plate at Brighton with the American bred two-year-old filly Wantage Belle, by Loyalist Wanda. The race was worth 30. Mr. Croker also won the Exning Plate at Newmarket with his colt Knickerbocker, who, being by Dobbins Flirt, has a pedigree thoroughly reminiscent of the early days of the "Yale blue, gold tassel," in this country, although Knickerbocker was sired and foaled in England. Mr. James R. Koene won the Dullingham Plate, worth ,150, with his four-year-old colt St. Cloud II., by Candlemas Belle of Maynard, at the Newmarket Second July Meeting.
