SOME VETERANS OF THE TURF. The table attached is one that will furnish the gossips of the turf plenty of material for out of season converse. It was compiled oat of mere curiosity at first to disprove the slop-and-slob-ber talk about iron borseism around Blitzen. As investigation followed the broadened curiosity, and general information was sought. In consequence nearly 300 horses and their doings since 1891 were put on paper, and though, from time to time, many were dropped, the racing figures of eighty-seven horse3 for eight years were left. For them all races were referred to. The records in tabulated form, given herewith, was the result. It is full of interest, though not as complete as it should be. The table shows the eight years doings of horses of class and selling platers of the regular turf and the action of many animals now on the outlaw list. The doings of the latter band on the proscribed courses are not included. The ages given are those of the horses if alive in 1899. Some are dead. Before Ivanhoe figured in the table he had raced four years. He has been used as an outlaw since 1895. Previous to 1891 the old horse had ran sixty-nine races, as follows : Ypar Races 1st 2nd 3rd Unp 1887 4 2 0 11 1888 20 3 4 5 8 1 1889 16 1 3 3 9 1890 29 9 1 4 5 Censor ran 194 races, winning fifty-four from 1891 to 1895. He is running yet as an outlaw, Charade ran 141 and won thirty. Eclipse 114, with forty-one wins.

Previous to the tabled record he had raced for six seasons as follows : Years. Races. Won. Yfars. Races. Won. 1886 13 7 1888 30 12 1885 5 0 1889 14 6 1887 28 9 1890 39 16 Thus in fourteen years the old horse ran 344 races and won fifty of them. His action was twelve seasons long. Loan ran one season and two races before the figures begin. Neither were wins. Some of his Canadian races are not in print. Many horses whose action was as keen as those tabulated have raced in America during the past ten years. The figures are given only as a sample and will be followed by others which will include the rest of the horses which have won many races. The scope of the table may be conceived from the fact that to compile its figures 13.305 races were examined and their results, embracing eight years of busy racing, are shown by the figures. 1891. 1892. 1893. 1894. 1895. 1896. 1897. 1898.
