. i i + * i HORSES WHICH GAVE A RESPECTED KENTUCKY TURFMAN A PLACE IN THE FRONT RANK OF WINNING OWNERS 4, 4. | Owners vouchsafed the proud satisfaction of embracing two winners of more than 0,000 in their • string this year were few. It fell to Thomas C. McDowell to enjoy that singular pleasure in what was probably his most successful year, financially, as a turfman. The two capital mares. Star Jasmine and I Waterbkossom, were his nioney-erirning stars. The older of the two. Star Jasmine, has always been able to pay her way in good company, but this year she fairly surpassed herself. The fleet-footed Waterblossom w;«s probably only second to Regret among the three-year-old fillies of the year and, keeping in mind Mr. McDowells extremely good fortune with high-class mares, should prove able to do great things for him in s the racing of next year. In Checks he had one of the good two-year-olds of western racing and one that was racing in fine form at the end of his campaign, always a hopeful augury of excellence as a three-year- j old.
