THIRTY LEADING AMERICAN JOCKEYS Seldom does a rider in the course of a weeks racing meet with the success that crowned jockey L. Lykes efforts last week. His score for that period was eleven winners. Earl Sande, the star of the eastern brigade, continued his onward rush to the top and added eight more to his fast-climbing total. He is now in fifth position aud, despite the big lead of the stars of the winter racing, is rapidly overhauling them. In that true index of a riders ability, the percentage column. Sande surpasses them all with the exceptionally high mark of 35 per cent. The records of the thirty leaders, from January 1 to and including the races of Saturday last, are as follows: I Jockev.
