AN OFF WEEK IN ENGLISH RACING. Change in Date of Closing of Great French Stakes — St. Fiusquin Passes Cyllene in English Sire List. londou. Eng., July S. — The past week has been devoted to meetings of interest enough to their own localities, but not of commanding importance. Salisbury provided some good racing, as It always does, and Uaglleld P..rk. Haydock cark. Pontefract and Nottingham were other points of uctlvity. Next week tne venue changes to Newmarket and between the sales and the racing their is always sufficient occurring at Headquarters to bold the attention oi all couiers. The "Kulletiu ilfficiel." or French Racing Calendar, publishes the proposition, made by the stewards of the Societe dKncouragement to the committee at its sitting, tending to retard the period fixed for closing the engagements for the CbgBtlUy Oaks and Derby, and consequently those for the Grand Prize of Paris. Ioiiiicrlv, according to the stipulations of the .lock. i cinli of May 17. ltMil, the period iixed was the lirst id July, as there was a desire to induce owners WhS tor tbe most part were breeders, to make I he entries before they had had time to try their youngsters, while maintaining this principle the committee has thought it advisable to consult the interests of those who have withdrawn their colors and limited their sporting proclivities to breed iug for the market, awaiting better times, and defer the nominations until after the Deauville bloodstock sales. Consequently the entries far the important events enumerated and Iixed for the year 1912. instead of being made, as usual, on July 5, arc not due until Tuesday. September 0. l.llo. The yearlings will therefore be sold at Deauville this year without having incurred any liability for the three important races of their three year-old career, and buyers will have the option of entering them or not until the stipulated date in September. No doubt the idea has arisen through the omission Of many horses such as Gros Papa and others which were left out last year through the early period fixed for their Batatas t ion. Hagopeaa, by Hagioscope, out of Lenity, was foil led ill 1863. Last Sunday this eigh teeny ear-old horse won the Jockey Flat Race, one and a half miles, at Rosenheim in Ceiuiany. beating two three-year-olds, to one of which he gave eight pounds, while to the other, which finished last, the veteran conceded twenty-three patsndS. In comparison with Hagopcan. Dean Swili is a mere youngster. Ilago-pean was bred by Lord Dowue. and it will be remembered that Lenity was by Rend Or, out of Clean-ence, breeding which may, or may not, have been incestuous. The Austrian jockey. G. Janek. has been arrested on suspicion of having caused an automobile accident whi-h resulted in loss of life. Returning from the races at Alag to Budapest he ran his motor car at the rate of sixty miles an hour and came into collision with a market cart. His friend, Adolpli Ilirsch, was one of the occupants of the car, and the axle of the cart was forced by the impact into Hirschs breast, causing his death shortly afterward. Janek himself also sustained serious injuries. He has been very successful in Austria-Hungary, and has frequently ridden in this country. Madame Cheiemetelf was exceedingly generous after the victory of her horse. Nuage, in the Grand Prix, and she sent donations to the Jockeys Hospital at Chaatllly. ta the benefit fund of the Societe dEn-eouragemeiit. to the Sporting Press Renevolent Fund, to the Association of the Pari-.Mutuel clerks and officials, and also sent S.oot francs to be distributed among the poor of Paris. The colt by St. Pi aaaatlll, out of Clare, bought by Mr. Cobb at the Newmarket sales for 0,OOU, has joined OleaseatS string at Chilton. Warren Towers, the Newmarket residence of the late Sir Daniel Cooper, bus been secured by Mr. G A. Prentice, the well-known race horse owner. J. D. Ormond. of Karamu. Hawkes Bay. Now Zealand, has purchased in England the horse Hv-mettus. By Cyllene. out of Sweet Balsam, Hymet-tus is well bred. He is expected to arrive in New Zealand in August and will take up stud duty at his new owners place. J. Reilt. whose engagement with his- German owner was broken by mutual consent, has returned to France and Obtained his license to ride, being engaged as leading Jockey for Frank J. Gould, for whom Percy l.ynliam trains. Reiffs first mount was on Lo Remendinlo. which compelled him before and after the race to take a seat on the bare, cold ground, and. getting away, had to be caught before his jockey remounted, could return to accomplish the formality of weighing in.
