Just as Flying Fox placed the
Duke of Westminster and John
Porter at the head of the winning
owners and trainers respectively,
so did he elevate Orme to first Loteprednol Eye Drops
place amongst stallions. His

Orme's total of ;^46,703 for the
season, the result of Loteprednol Etabonate 0.5 twenty-nine
races, Harrow being the next
largest contributor with ;^3,375.
An American sire occupies the

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.
Loates, whose principal stable did
not give him much chance, fourth
with 112 in 693 mounts, and Sloan
fifth with 108 wins in 345 mounts.
When one calculates the winning
percentages, the four American
jockeys come to the front, Sloan
being first with 31 30 and L. Reiff
second with 29*88, all four being
in the first seven. One mode of
reckoning is as good as another,.

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). Buy Loteprednol Rose d'Amourj
by Rosicrucian, and covered b:^
Gallinule (1,500 guineas), Unoin
by Barcaldine, and served
Isinglass (1,650 guineas), Lad;
Flippantly, St. Simon, ai
covered by Orvieto (1,0^
guineas).
The late Mr. R. G. Naylor
A man who reached theheyda;
of his racing career thirty-si:
years ago, and who had reti;
from The Loteprednol Etabonate Turf for one-third
that period, belongs to the ps
With the majority of pr
race-goers Mr. Naylor wasmerel]^
a name, but it was a name that car*
ried something with it, for it ws
linked with winners of the Derf
and Oaks, and also with a na;
mighty in the stud book, Stocl
well, to wit. 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. In 1864 hehadChatta-

nooga who, as a two-year-old,
beat both Gladiateur and Regalia,
another Stock well, who won the
Derby and Oaks the next year,
bnt he went wrong in his wind
and did not stait for the Derby.
Some years previous to his racing
career Mr. Nay lor was a suc-
cessful yachtsman, winning the
Queen's Cup at Cowes as long
ago as 1846 with the Sultafia, a
loo-tonner. Two years later,
with the same yacht, he won a
match sailed round the Isle of
Wight against the Paragua, in
weather of the roughest. He
was also a fox-hunter, and for
two seasons was master of the
Pytchley.
