COLINS BIG WINNING POSSIBILITIES. May Go Into Winter Quarters with Earnings of Over 50,000 to His Credit. If Colins splendid speed, vigor and racing form in general remains undiminished to the end of the :season of 1!I07, it is quite possible that be may retires to winter quarters the winner of something in excess of 50,000. In the history of American racing only Colins grnndslre, Domino, has over won such a great sum and outside of Domino no two-year-old except His Highness has ever won as much as 00,000. Up to date Colin has won 0,S01. His future winning possibilities are involved in his success in the following stakes in which lie is engaged: At Slioepshcad Bay Futurity, probable net value 1,010 Flatbnsh Stakes, probable net value S.270 Great Eastern Handicap, probajile net value -5,025 S,S35 . At Gravesend Junior Champion Stakes, probable net value 2,000 0,S35 At Belmont Park Matron Stakes, for colts, probable net value .0,000 Nursery Handicap, for colts, probable net value 0,000 Champagne Stakes, for colts, probable net vhlue 5,000 1,000 At Brighton Beach 1,833 Produce Stakes, for colts, probable net value 1,000 Total -.2,835 Colin may not start in all of these rich, events, but there is no. apparent . reason why he . will not, outside of the chance that injury or loss of form may send him into retirement. In estimating the probabilities it must bo remembered that- his owner has deliberately gone on record with the statement that Colin is, in his opinion the best racehorse he ever owned. In view of the achievements of Foxhall, Domino and Sysonby, that is saying a great deal. From some men It would be taken as no more than an outburst of emotional enthusiasm. But Mr. Kcenc is a cool, well balanced man of groat experience and sagacity in turf affairs and such ,a statement from him is to be regarded with great respect. So all In all it is more than probable that Colins winnings will far exceed those of Ills Highness and put him next to Domino asa money-earner, s- Sensation was the first American two-year-old to win as much as 0,000 and Inelndlng liis year, the record from his time down to date shows the following as the chief winner of each year: Year.
