"Racing has come into its own in this state. The wholesome manner in which the sport lias been conducted by the Kentucky Jockey Club, its liberality toward the horsemen and its efforts to provide the highest caliber of competition for the public have placed racing in this section on a plane never before attnined. Just as every meeting this year has eclipsed previous ones, so will the autumn meeting at the Downs surpass all former fall meetings at this track."
