The winners divided. racing ABROAD NOT TAKING RISKS rt is gathered from the latest London Snorting Life that the American National .Jockey Club proposes to institute. an international race at Arlington Park in July, if it can obtain the co-operation of the leading sportsmeip of Great Britain and the Continent. The proposed race will be modelled on the Ascot Gold Cup, and the added money is suggested as 100,000 dollars. Mr. and Mr* Hertz (Heigh Count owners) have offered to augment the stake with, an additional 100.000 dollars if Inversion is a, challenger. Inversion, owned hv Mr. J. Reid Walker, beat Heigh Count in the Ascot Gold Cup. but Mr. Walker is not to bn tempted by dollars, and lie lias refused to nominate Inversion, stating that he will gh to the stud, and already the subscription list is large. ENGLISH STATISTICS. Up to August 12 English racing statistics show that H. 11. Aga Khan is the leading owner. With 10 horses he had won 18 races worth £27,266. Major Eh MeCahnont is next on the list. He won fivo races with three horses, that returned him £21,563. Among the breeders, Mr. J. J. Maher showed the I liest results. Three horses from his stud won six races to the value of £22,244; but Maior MeCahnont is not very far behind him. Ho bred three winners that for five starts accounted for £21,592. Tetratema- is easily the most successful sire. Fourteen of his progeny won 24 races, worth £48,658. The four-year-old grey horse Royal Minstrel won three v.n'es, that.. brought in £16.174. Mr. Jinks also won three races, accumulating £15,450: and the. Derby winner, Trigo, wjih cwo wins, mafic his owner the richer with £12,408. THOROUGHBRED GAMBLES Night Raid, a compnrtivcly young stallion, sire of Nightman'll and I’luir Lap, whose• running at Kandwick recently so distinguished them, says the Sun, is another illustration of What a gamble is the buying of thoroughbreds. For all his excellent breeding. Night Raid could win only two races in Sydney, a Maiden Handicap at Canterbury Park and the Chelmsford Handicap at Kandwick, when P. Brown rode him to dead-heat with Tremolo. He ran so disappointingly in more important races that Mr. A. IP. Wade sold him' for stud purposes in Now Zealand, and two'or three years afterwards purchased the high-performed Top Gallant for his stud at Boronvboln, where- lie-has-got useful winners. He probably would not mind having Night Raid there now. Mr. Wade’s luck with Night Raid was ho better than that with Amounis. He gave £3OOO and a contingency to J. W. Cook for the Magpie gelding, hoping to .win the .Derbies with him. After lie had failed lie let the horse go at autcion for only 1800 guineas, and has seen him run brilliantly since, to win -£22;301 10s for Air. W. PearS’oll • • A Sydney owner, Mr. 11. G. Kirkpatrick, who, during ,a trip to New Zealand, gave £2OOO for Gay Ballerina, and got Ids money back in stakes'in a few wee.ks, had previously offered £SOOO for Niglitmareh, after, he End won the New Zealand Derby, but, the colt was not for sale. Tile racehorse Welkne, owned by Mr. B. Goldwater and trained by J. Thorpe, at Ellerslic, had to bo destroyed on Wednesday as the result of injuries received through a motor-car colliding with him, on the Great. South road at Penrose. It appears that Welkne was out doing walking exorcise and a mdtipr-car, which was proceeding in tho same direction, struck him behind. The. horse had his pelvis broken, and it was found, necessary to shoot him. This is very had luck for his owner and trainer, as Welkne-showed every promise of - getting on the winning list before long. He. was by the Welkin from Angelina, and was raced by Mr. W. G. Stead before being acquired.by Mr. Goldwater.—Star.
