t WINNING TWO-YEAR-OLDS Ballot Sends Largest Number of Successful Juveniles in 1923. Sir Martin Asserts His Quality In the Stud. Sun Briar and nigh Time Meet with Remarkable Success. To Ballot, the Castleton-bred son of "Voter Cerito, belongs the distinction of sending the largest number of winning two-year-olds into the racing of 1923 up to the first of November. Ballot was a smashing race horse himself, one of the great collection of stars that carried the silks of the late James R. Keene, and was raced with marked success both in this country and England. Although Ballot has not sired as good a race horse as he washimself, his sons and daughters are of the sturdy, dependable type, and have kept their daddys name prominent among our successful American stallions. Ballot has fourteen winning two-year-olds to his credit this year, with Diogenes, the Hopeful Stakes victor, the leader in respect to money won. Chilhowee, Mr. Mutt, Fabian and Stanwix are other young Ballots that raced with distinction this year. Altogether the fourteen winning Ballot two-year-olds have earned 6,616. Back in 1908 John E. Madden introduced to the American racing public a two-year-old colt by Ogden Lady Sterling, named Sir Martin, that proved to be the champion of the year and of so much promise that Louis "Winans, an American living in England, purchased him in hopes of winning the Epsom Derby. How the American colt stumbled and fell at Tattenham Corner when it looked like certain victory in that world famous race is now a matter of turf his-history. Sir Martin is now back at Hamburg Place, where he was bred, and with more favorable opportunities should prove a big success in the stud. He has twelve winning two-year-olds in this years racing and one of them is the acknowledged queen of the juveniles, the sparkling filly Happy Thoughts. "Wrack, the imported stallion, which has firmly established himself as a successful stock horse, also has twelve winning two-year-old representatives, none of which has as yet shown more than ordinary ability. Sun Briar, the champion two-year-old of 1917, and one of the extremely fast racers of recent years, did not take long to show his quality as a producer of high-class race horses. Certain it is, judging from the fine band of two-year-olds that represented him In the racing of 1923, Sun Briar will be a pronounced success in the stud. Of the eleven winning juveniles to the credit of Sun Briar Sunayr, Sun Pal and Sunspero were the largest money winners, but all are quite promising and should make their marks next year as three-year-olds. Sires with ten winners each included . Black Toney, Polymelian and Whisk Broom II., the first-mentioned being represented by such smashers as Black Gold, Sue Donovan, Befuddle, Cherokee Lee and Beau Butler. Colonel "Vennie, Huon II., Spanish Prince II., Ultimus and Vulcain. are the sires with nine winners each to their credit. Then come Dick Finnell, Fair Play, Light Brigade, Marathon, Peter Quince, Seth and Transvaal, each with eight winners. Among the sires with six winners each is High Time, the chestnut son of Ultimus Noonday, by Domino, that gave to the racing of 1923 the sensational and unbeaten Sara-zen. High Time is one of our youngest stallions and, judging him from the standpoint of Sarazen and Time Exposure, another promising youngster, should be a greater success in the stud than his daddy, the dead Ultimus. The complete records of the winning two-year-olds from January 1, to and including the racing of October 31, grouped under their sires, are here presented: SIRE WITH FOURTEEN WINNERS.
