SIRE SUPREMACY SETTLED Man o War, by his Kenilworth Cup victory or. last Tuesday, has once and for all definitely settled the question of the 1920 sire supremacy. Seventeen of the progeny of his sire. Fair Play, have already this year won In first moneys along over 23,000. Broomstick, the runner-up, has not as much i .as 20,000 to his credit, therefore no matter the result of the Latonia Championship Stakes, the position of Fair Play as leading sire is unassailable. Rock Sand now leads Meddler for brood mare sfre honors, his daughters having bred the winners of over 20,000 as: against the 45,000 which the sons and daughters of Meddler mares have wou. Just twenty of Rock. Sands daughters,- out of a possible thirty-two, are this yeur productive of twenty-four winners of sixty-seven races worth the above amount.
