KEMPIONS BRILLIANT CAREER IN INDIA. Through the thoughtful courtesy of Mr. E. E. Conssell. secretary of the British Rlood Stock Agency. Limited. Daily Racing Form is enabled to repair a deficiency in an exhibit of the earnings of the progeny of Rroomstiek. published last March. In a note to Daily Racing Form from London, under date of April 12. Mr. Conssell said: "In your issue of March 21, a very interesting article about Rroomsticks career at the stud appeared. The writer stated he was aware that Kempion had won valuable races in India, but the figures were not available. I therefore supply the omission. It will enable you to complete Bream-sticks record, as Kempion was a very brilliant colt in India in the season of 1913-14. You will note that altogether he has won eleven races worth 4,007 ill stakes. Also placed many times. This sum of course easilv brings Rroomsticks figures over the 00,000 mark."
