According to a late English exchange, the American jockey D. Maher is doing remarkably well this season. Up to July 24 he had won no less than £54,374 17s in stakes for his various employers as the result of 47 successful rides. In addition to the Eclipse Stakes/ and the National Breeders’ Produce Stakes, he has ridden the winners of such valuable races as the Kempton “Jubilee,” the Derby and Oaks at Epsom, the Manchester Cup and the Coventry Stakes, Coronation Stakes, and Gold Cup at Ascot. Last season he earned 8s for his employers in 101 races, and he should considerably exceed this sum before the end of the present season. Otto Madden, who won the valuable Princess of Wales’ Stakes, has won £24,960 10s, the next biggest winners being W. A. Higgs 10s), B. Dillon 10s), and H. Jones (£16,682 ss).
