THE LEADING WINNING THREEYEAROLDS Fair Play Heads the Big List of ThirtyOne That Have Won 5000 or More Headed by the peerless Colin and his hardly less redoubtable stable companion Celt the best three I yearolds iif ISJOSwere unquestionably high class race horses Tlie accidents that retired Colin and Celt I ill too early in the season save others a chance anil gave Mr Belmouts sterling eolt Fair Play the I premiership in the matter of money winning He has been consistently sood from the outset of his raptnir I this year and his grand performance hi miming a mile and a quarter in 203s at Gravesend a wecl with 122 pounds on his back shows him to be still in perfect form and a horse to be proud of Ills envia ¬ ble total of ii2tiT 0 was chiefly reached In winning the Brooklyn Derby Coney Island Jockey Club Stakes I Lawrence Realization and First Special I ISecond Second to Fair Play In money won is invincible Colin and liad he remained sound and in good form there is no room for doubt that lie would by this time have been far and away the greatest money winner yf American turf history possibly of all turf history His first start this year was in the Withers Stakes t Itelinont Iark wiiich he won vastly over a heavy track from Fair Ilay King Tames Dorante Question Mark and Chapultepee Next lie won the Belmont from Fair Ilay King Tames and Uolxrt Cooper and should have won easily but had to be shaken up to win by i head from Fair Ilay because Xotter mistook the finish linn and had eased him up His next md last race was for the Tidal Stakes at SheepsbeadBay June 2 which lie won in n canter from Dorante Stamina and Chapultepec Then he fell lame and finally was tired and turned out He is said to be all right now and his reappearance at Belmont Park would l e enthusiastically welcomed Xo intimation as to whether he will be started again this year or not has been fortlKomiuj from the stable Small but every inch a race horse King James is third in the list and distinctly a credit to his sire plaudit Battling with the best of the year he has won but three races yet has only twice been unplaced At the finish of nearly every one of his races lie lias been found fighting away with bulldog courage and tenacity and nearly always able to secure a portion of the spoils of the race He should become a great favorite at Oakland next winter Notwithstanding his high rank King James lias won but one stake race this year the Annual Champion at Sheepshcad Bay but running second and third inmahy of the most ImiHtrtant events of the year has told Heavily In his fivor fivorThat That tlie western gelding Pinkola is fourth is due to his carrying off the rich Empire City Handicap hut he is a good racer and a terror in iwnvy going Celt was out but twice tills year and won twice the Jockey Club WelghtforAge Uace fit Belmont Park and the Brooklyn Handicap In the latter ho gave Fair ilav seven pounds and as easy a heating as Colin ever gave him Stamina was easily the best three vcarold filly but not tlie equal it the1 best ftp lit or ten colts Priscillian was a revelation and probably ranks next to Colin and Celt Tlie fact that he has never been beaten ami really never fully extended renders it difficult to place him in comparison with the Kerne cracks He is a horse of tremendous speed speedlii lii In the facing racing of the yearto date thirtyone tnreevearc threeyearolds
