GREAT WINNERS OF EACH YEAR SINCE 1902. Last year it fell to a horse more than five years old, to figure as the chief money-earner of the year, the only case of the kind in the last fifteen years. In that space of time one four-year-old, seven three-year-olds and six two-year-olds have filled a similar role, showing conclusively that too many of the great prizes of the turf are for the young horses and too few for their elders. This year the fine two-year-old Campfire was so far in "front of the other ages, that they were hardly in sight. Not since 1910 has any horse in our racing -won so much money and, then, it was another grand two-year-old, Sam Hihlreth.s Novelty.
