LEADING AMERICAN JOCKEYS Dublin Taylor, Americas leading jockey in number of winners at present, was halted slightly in his rush toward the 200 mark when he moved from Latonia to Arlington Park. Taylor had his worst week in recent months when he only scored with two horses, making his years total 151 winners. He maintained his thirty-winner margin over Silvio Coucci, however, the Bronx star riding the same number of winners as Taylor and holding his one winner advantage over Eddie Litzenberger. The latter also scored twice last week. H. Hughes made the best record among the thirty leaders when he piloted thirteen winners during the six days of racing. Following are the records of the thirty leading American jockeys from January 1 up to and including the racing of last Saturday. Last Jockey. Mts. 1st. 2d 3d. UnpPCWk.
