NOTES OF ENGLISH RACING C .1,; :; How Gallice Was Replaced and Bought Americans Still Buying Yearlings. BY E. E. COUSSELL. LONDON, Eng., Oct. 27. .The winner of the Ccsarewitch has some interest, for America. When the British Bloodstock Agency bought Gallice for Mr.. A. B. Hancock, Mrs Robinson was disappointed because her husband sold and said she herself would buy a mare at the December sales. She managed to pick Simonath, carrying Bracket. Sir IT. Cunllffe-Owcn refused an offer of 50,000 for Orpheus when the colt won the Champion Stakes. In answer to the inquiry die said that 00,000 would not buy him, which, of course, meant he was not for sale at any price. Galloper Light jarred himself recently and went to the stud this wcekv. Jle goes to Southcourtt Leigh-:, ton Buzzard, the Rothschilds stud, and will stand in the same box that was occupied by St. Frus-qutn for so many years. Mr. Rothschild lias a fine yearling brother named Beacon. He is a better looking horse than Galloper .Light, lieing more of the Sunstar type. - Mr. Sanford bought a Charles OMalley yearling last week, and, if the strikes will permit, lie will be shipped with the Snnder-Snow Marten yearling filly on the Manhattan early in. November Just now it looks as though there will be no Cambridgeshire, and perhaps no racing the remainder of the season. We are all hoping things will bo more normal before the dates scheduled for the big sales in December at Newmarket. Mr. Sanford waits here for these sales and I hear other prominent American breeders are coming over to attend them.
