According to the system of reck- oning jockeys' winning mounts, regardless ot the number of times they ride, Sam Loates is an easy first with 160 wins out of 731 mounts. His riding was one of the features of the second half of Loteprednol Ophthalmic the season, and Loteprednol Tobramycin no one who witnessed them is likely to forget the matches he rode against the American jockeys, especially Sloan. Madden, first in 1898, is this year second with 130 wins in 807 mounts. M. Cannon is third with 120 wins in 468 mounts. T.

The Deoember Sales— This annual function, presided over by Mr. Tattersall, always tells its own tales, some of which provide food for reflection. Under the hammer there is no sentiment, and the sharp rap of that imple- ment puts an end to many a fond vision. But other valid reasons than failure and disappointment brought some well-known animals into the sale ring. As is the case whenever brood stock is to be sold, the foreign element was there, and Germany and France will be the richer by some of our best blood. Airs and Graces, named from the way she paced the paddock in her early youth, fetched 3,000 guineas, and goes to France, M. Blanc being the pur- chaser. This very handsome mare one was able to contrast with another fine specimen in Eager, who fetched 3,500 guineas, and is to be seen out iagain at from five to seven furlongs. The putting up of Mr. Jersey's lot seems to suggest that the racecourse will no longer compete with the stage for her favour, although Merman was not for sale. Aurum we knew was to be relegated to the stud. The reserve of Maluma and Uni- form was not reached, but five others were sold. Several owners were weeding out, the Duke of Westminster, as usual, being one, and Royal Emblem passed into the hands of Mr. Weatherby, for stud purposes, of course. That Brio should fetch 1,450 guineas surprised me. The purchaser was M. Ephrussi, so, in future, French money and not English Mall be lost over him, if he is ever raced again. Count Lehndorf, whom I saw described as '* that well-known sportsman," as thongi the Count bought for himself in stead of for his Government, foi breeding purposes, always hac something to say when a goo< brood mare was up, and his chie purchases were Gold Dream, b] Bend Or, and covered by Ayrshf (1,150 guineas).

Mr. Naylor, wb bred some time before he b^aii{ to race in 1859, did his country good turn in buying Stockwell who would otherwise have gon< to France. Success on the Tur came to him very quickly, for he won the Oaks in 1862 with Feu de Joie and the Derby in the following year with Macaroni, bought from the then Duke of Westminster, beating Lord Clifden in a very exciting finish. By this success he won ;f 100,000 in hard cash from the ring. Stockwell, by the perversity of fate, bred Mr. Naylor nothing of consequence, Caterer, the only good one he had, breaking down in training when JFavourite for the Derby, won by The Marquis (also a Stockwell), after finishing second for the Two Thousand Guineas.
