•h * THIRTY HORSES MORE THAN FIVE YEARS OF AGE WHICH COMPORTED THEMSELVES NOBLY LAST YEAR l Of tin- efficient horses over five years of age engaged in our racing of last year. Short Grass was easily the leader in a.maunt of money won. as will as showing some notably meritorious efTorts in con-lest- with our leading handicap hors:s. Second to him was another veteran of high degree, rare old Borrow, which i.mi still cirry high weight and run fast. Following tie. se two lii:e racers the ether* in the list of thirty best winners, with the exception of leochares. are mostly selling platers, but selling platen of the kind any owner would be willing to give a place in his stable. Horses able to win from S-1.000 to ; 7.000 in a racing seasons campaigning are n MM too plentiful anywhere and such as Monot -icy. Sleeth. Keweaaa and others in this list are highly desfaraMe. As for Leochares. aside from his ability to pay his own way. be is so fast that one cannot but wonder why Mr. Sanford sold him. Here is the thirty in the list of best winning veterans: Horse. Col.
