SIRES WHICH HAVE BEEN MOST SUCCESSFUL WITH WINNING TWO- YEAR-OLDS IN RECENT YEARS In the matter of sending two-year-olds into racing, Star Shoots record is something remarkable. His twenty-seven iu 1910 lias no parallel here or abroad. Tlie record previously had been Ogden.s nineteen in 1914, a number which supplanted Cesarions eighteen in 1910. Ogden again had nineteen in 1910, the same number standing, to. Sweeps1 credit in 1917. Star Shoots 129 winning two-year-olds from and including 1910 captured a total of 13,757. Broomsticks fifty-four in the same length of time wou S0,442. The average of money won per head is ,057 for Star Shoot and ,452 for Broomstick, a showing decidedly in favor of tlie latter of tlie two long-time rivals. Others of our prominent sires which have good records in the number of their winning two-year-olds and money won by them arc Peep oDay, Dick Welles, Yankee, Celt, Sweep and Peter Quince. Uncle and Olambala are also prominent in money won. The following tabulation presents facts well worth consideration: Total No. Total Sires. 1910. 1911. 1912. 1913. 1914. 1915. 191C. 1917. 191S.
