REMARKABLE AMOUNT OF MONEY DISTRIBUTED THROUGH THE ASCOT MEETING + + Some time prior to the recent Ascot meeting in England Daily Racing Form called attention to the fact, peculiar to tills great meeting, that its entire program is one of stake races exclusively. As an English writer puts it. it is a meeting where people ••think in thousands." and tlie values are something wonderful. As a result none but the iM-st horses are -.ecu in action there. Racers of moderate class have no I names* at Ascot. The amount of money distributed daily is something to make an American owners mouth water. An ex|Misitlon of the daily items makes interesting reading and are given in detail here. The Americans did not fare any t M well at till- Ascot mot ting, but Mr. Keeiie has the satisfaction of having won the most valuable race yet credited to an American owner in F.nglanil this year when Wedding Pells galloped homo in front in the Forty Seventh New Riennial Stakes. In the table betew each race of the meeting, the placed horses, weights and values to the winners are given and the daily returns are simply astonishing. June 15. Race. Winner. A. Wt. Second. A. Wt.
