LEADING TWO-YEAR-OLD WINNERS SINCE 1879. It is assured that II. C. Hallcnbecks Worth will be the leading two-year-old winner of 1010. This good son of Knight of the Thistle and Miss Hauovcr Is not only the chief money-winner of his own age, but has won more money than any other thoroughbred of any ago in America this year. No stakes remain to be decided that are of sufficient importance to affect the result of the years racing so far as the two vear-old premiership is couccrned. The total to Worths credit is about on a par with the earnings of tho champion, two-year-olds of tho early eighties and makes a sorry showing as compared with tho more atlluent davs of the turf in America. It affords :t striking illustration of the fearful falling off in intake values and racing opportunities that has followed the passage of restrictive legislation aimed at racing in various sections of the United States. The record of the winnings of the chief American two-voar-ohls of each year since Sensation first touched the 0,000 mark in 1S70 is as follows: Year Horse. Sts. 1st. 2d. od.Unp.
