Azote, which ran unsuccessfully in the Derby this year, broke its leg during an obstacle race at St. Rouen, and had to be shot, says a Morning Leader telegram. Azotes racing career was brief and inglorious. He ran six times and his best performance in a race was to finish fourth, und on that occasion there were only five runners. There is as much interest now in certain jockeys as there is in the racing itself, and especially Mainland Higgs. the two left in the running for the, jockey premiership. Their friends provide them with excellent chances for gaining brackets and naturally this is reflected in the betting. Prince Carl Kinsky has tendered his resignation of the presidency of the Austrian Jockey Club on private grounds, says Deutscher Sport. The prince first became famous as a sportsman when he rode his mare. Zoedone. to victory in the Grand National of 1SS3. Bayardo has won all the seven races he has contested this year with the greatest ease anil earned during the season for his owner. Mr. Fairic. 1,540 in stakes. He is one of tho best two-year-olds to ever win the Dewhurst Plate since Its establishment in 1875, although the list of winners includes Bal Gal, Chamant, Donovan, Dutch Oven, Friars Balsam. Kislwr. Meddler. Ornie. Ormonde. Paradox, Pilgrimage. Rock Sand, St. FrUsquln and Wheel of Fortune. Bayardo does not run again this year, and if he goes on all right will win the classic races of next year for certain.
