BIG WINNINGS IN ENGLISH RACING. Owners and Horses Led by W. Hall Walker and Lally. In England, as in this country, the racing season of 1007 is in the declining stage, with one point of difference. There does not remain to be run in this country a race that will net the winner ,000, while in England a number are yet to be run of greater value than that sum. Still, the season there has, reached that stage where tables of statistics are in order and the big winners of the year are pretty well defined as they are here. Among owners. .Mr. W. Hall Walker stands out by himself. At latest advices his horses had won for him ,502.50. This cniuiKircs poorly with the enormous total of Mr. Keene s winnings, but. is sudicient to indicate that he may have stable earnings of over 00,000 when the season closes. Five other owners have stable winnings of more . than 0,000. In this country eleven owners have winnings of over 0,000. Ip to the most recent- advices the twenty leading owners in England made the following sliowing: Winning Races Owner. Horses. Won. Value. W. Hall Walker 7 12 ,502.50 W. t:.

As a three-year-old Lally was distinctly a disappointment, but he lias made amends in his four-year-old form and heads Englands winning horses with 7,775 to his credit. Four American horses have won more than this. The St. Leger winner. Wool Winder, is second to Lally with total winnings of 2,085. only the two having won as much as 0,000. The twenty principal winning horses are the following: Horse, Age and Pedigree. Won.

The twenty American loaders are made up of two live-year-olds, one fonr.ycar-old, eleven three-year-olds and six two-year-olds, the comparison seeming to show that horses older than three years old are given a better chance to earn money in rich stakes than in this country. However, it is not to be overlooked that our three-year-olds of 1007 are of extraordinary merit. Among the English stallions Gallinule is the premier, owing his supremacy to Slieve Gallion and The White Knight. Lally and Acclaim have given the dead sire, Amphion, second place. The sires witli progeny having won 0,000, rank- as follows: Sire and Pedigree. Won.
