J. - . . , 4, JOHN SANF0KD ENJOYS PROFITABLE YEAR IN RACING WITH STABLE OF YOUNG HORSES : : i The total of G,14S won by the fashionable stable of J. Sanford during the year 1917 is due in large measure to the success of two-year-olds carrying the Sanford colors. More than 4,000 of the stables winnings are credited to this division and bad Tippity Witchet joined the Sanford colors earlier in the racing season this amount would have. been greatly swelled, as also would the earnings of the stable. Unfortunately for the stable, Tippity Witchet ran only one race under the Sanford ownership. That was in the Walden Stakes, at Pimlico, November 10. a few hours after the great Broomstick gelding had been purchased by Sanford for 0,500 at the Brighton Stable dispersal sale. To the disappointment of his new owner, Tippity Witchet was handily disposed.,of by War Cloud in this, his last race as a two-year-old. Stitch in Time, a two-year-old lilly by Dalhotisie Pins and Needles, with ,500 to her credit, "heads the list of winners in the Sanford stable. Of this amount ,900 was earned as the result of her victories in the Astoria Dinner Stakes at Aqueduct and the Kentucky Selling Stakes at Saratoga. Wawbeeks victory in the Damoiselle Stakes at Empire City added ,235 to the stables winnings and placed the Bock-ton filly second in the money column. George Smith, Meteorite. Gex and Madame Curie all earned more than ,000 and the remainder of the stables dividends were divided between ten representatives. The more attractive money offerings of the various racing associations during the year 1917 is rellected in the increased earnings of the Sanford stable Over 1915, when the figures show a total of only 5,330.
