* . , + WHAT THE PROGENY OF THE TWENTY LEADING AMERICAN SIRES OF THIS YEAR HAVE WON TO MARCH 31 T. , ■ i i ■ i i ! • • I ■ So far this year the sons and daughters of Marta Santa have raced so industriously and so effectively for the credit of their daddy, that he is now leading the American sire list. Moreover, such a sum is already accumulated in his name that he is practically certain to figure high up iu the list when the statistics of 1916 are compiled. For the whole of last year his progeny won a total of 9,007. which placed him ninth in the list of twenty. Now at this early date he stands credited with 0,345 and is far in advance of his nearest rival, which just now is Dick Welles. This latter old-time Chicago favorite has fared well of recent years and rumor has it some of his two-year-olds coming on are of great speed and promise. He begat a Kentucky Derby winner in Wintergreen early in his stud career, but has sired nothing of equal prominence since. Next to Dick Welles is the reliable and ever prominent Star Shoot, and close up to him in money won. but only a few hundreds in advance of McGee and Marathon. It is interesting to note that the two veterans. Cesarion and Sain, hold places in the select list of twenty, while the three-times premier. Broomstick, is not represented. However, so far as the latter is concerned, few of his progeny took part in the winter racing. He will be heard from presently when the big money of the turf is being contended for.
