During the J year iust passed A. -T- .Toynor and John 'J 'Schlosser have saddled between them K, ' eiglitv-four winners, which is quite a 1 . record. Of these winners, forty-eight f. I have been from tho string -of H. P. K "Whitney, fourteen from the Belniout lot I 3nd the remainder belong to various M I owners, including Joyner and Fred m Johnson. . , , ., P' Theso two noted trainers had quite a f; i eood string from which to select, but in any event it is quite a record to hand ' out to tho English trainers when they 11 reach Newmarket. Schlosser had a most IK reasonable offer to take a string or HI horses to California this winter, but he HI f, has decided to go to. England with K ( Jovner to assist in training the Whitney BU strW. which will campaign there nest I I year. . ... - Martin Nathanson is hero with a pocket full of stake books for the Oak-laud Oak-laud meeting. In all there are twenty. .', one fixtures, for which sGo.OOO will be J ( added by the association. The amounts ' run down from the Burns handicap, with l' , t $10,000 added, to the lowest sum ot i " $2000, which will bo added in fourteen (J 1 of the vents- , L n n A rtt With tweutv-ono stakes at Oakland J and about twentj' at Los Angeles, there V will be more than forty fixtures for horsemen who go to the coast this win- ' tcr. It. is so arranged by tho. sccrc- I ' taries that none of the stakes will con- ( flict, as the Los Angeles fixtures will vft t bo sandwiched in between those at Oak- land so that horsemen will have ample B time and opportunity to prepare for the V entire list at both tracks. Mr. iS'athanson says that m all his ex- I, perienco he has never had so many m- I nuiries for stake blanks, many of them 5 from owners who have never before at- tempted to race in the winter, also .men ( of prominence with fashionable strings. jr Judging from the outlook it will take P j a good horse to win on tho coast.
