I 1 , : c i . : . i ENGLISH CROSS COUNTRY JOCKEYS. Steepleehasing and hnrdle racing plays a much more important part on the English turf than it does in this country, being carried on steadily from the close of flat racing at Manchester in November to the March following. The result is more horses in the illegitimate branch of the sport, and a period of active and continuous employment for riders. many of whom, professional and amateur, are ae- complished horsemen. Their greater chance to mak:- a respectable living is illustrated by the many mounts of the principal riders, the record for 1907 being: Leading Professionals. Jockeys. Mounts. Lost. Won. Mason.
