With 0,038 won as a two-year-old, he has amassed as the earnlugs of two years of racing 84,SS8. If good fortune attends him in 1900 he will pass Dominos total winnings of 93,330 and take his place at the head of the list of American winning horses.

Perverse, the best two-year-old filly of the year and a smasher, took 3,990 in five starts and the Uylug Artful 3,320 In three, nearly all won by her wouderful race in the Brighton Handicap. Roseben, champion sprinter of the year and winner of more races than auy other horse of, 1905, made a good showing with 2,0S0, in view of the fact that in the main his successes were achieved in purses. In 1904 fifteen horses won less than 0,000 and more than 5,000. In 1905 but six horses came under the same classification. In 1904 twelve horses won less than 5,000 and more than 5,000.

In 1904 the winners of less than 0,000 and more than ,000 were -13 in number and 50 in 1905.
