It is hoped that his colors will be much b more prominent during the current year. As winning ,. owner, his stakes amounted to SlO.O.iO. I. Arnold follows fairly closely with 4,975. for which h amount the winning handicapper. Peridelle. is largely responsible, whilst E. II. Sinclair stands third on the list with 4,910 to his credit, Russett. the voung lightweight, was the most suc-i c- cessful joekev. having steered seventy-seven winners fs out of 350 mounts. Shaw comes a good second, bc-i c" ing only eleven behind, but since his sixty-six suc-i c- cesses were gained from 227 mounts, his percentage of wins is better than that of tho popular Jight-" weight. Middlelon. who comes third, has also a good average, having ridden sixty-three wins out or 271 mounts. Maussc. who is fourth on the list, rode forty-six winners during the season. It may lie stated, however, that the majority of Shaw s successes were gained in the Cape Colony, Coining to the list of winning sires for the year, Campanajo comes an easy first, his progeny winning S"S 890 Perigord comes out witli, 0,500: Uniform third with 3,790: whilst next in order come Rae- biini. 3,505: Aurum II.. 1,505, and Veracity. l 100 I " The season has proved the prowess of mares as racers Peridelle. a mare with a remarkablo turn of sneed and winner of the Johanneshnrg Handicap, captured in stakes the sum of 3,500. and others of the weaker sex follow in the stakes list to the exclusion of tho opposite sex. in tills order: Albyncs. ;L"o Aura. ,900. and Formla, 1908.sh,500 The best stake winners among the males were Baluarte. . 375- Corrlccrian. of Durban fame. 80,250. and Ripple, SG.250. I Thoo who have supported Rhodora for the Cam-n bridgeshlre will bo glad to learn that the filly Is progressing in the most satisfactory manner. Since her" victories at the Curragh early in the past month, she has not caused her owner or trainer a moments concern. Hardly any other competitor will be in finer trim on the day of the contest. For the past few weeks sho has, been sheeted in her box. never previously having worn clothing, and this iilan appears to agree with her admirably. Her co-it now wears a beautifully bright appearance. and many would not now recognize her. so greatly has she improved. Rhodora is, almost certain to be ridden bv S. Donoghue, upon whose services Mr Croker will have first clai next year. M Ruau. the French minister of agriculture, has 1nst been interviewed by a representative of Le Jockey respecting the alleged falling off in the re-w ceints at tie mutuels and the decisions of the Courts of Vppcal which have permitted lets to bo made among owners according to the Penal le which grants an exception in the case of horse racing. M. Ruaii has said that the decrease in the receipts, apparent than real, might correctly be attrl luted more to the very bad leather which prevailed dur-his the early vait ot the season and Dfoyqa 01S4S- fro troifs In evt goi of of l:;ti had years going ,C ., tain 0! lie j.iv law. ne wli when to all outdoor sports, and also lo. the decrease-In the number of horses running iu cross-country-events. Ho added that although the takings In the-government lotteries had decreased some 15.000.00l francs, compared with the figures of last year, he every hope that the average of 300.000.000 Jo 305.000.000 of francs obtained during the past six would be reached. Referring to the betting on at different race courses, he said that in deference to the Ideas expressed by owners a cer tolerance had been shown, but that it was im possible for him to sanction any step which would contrary to existing regulations as laid down by but that, on the other hand, should it become necessary for him to intervene, he would only do so properly armed with all due authority.
