"CHERRY AND BLACK" 



there Is n't one good horse in fifty bred by the sale 

 studs. The good ones are bred in the private studs, 

 some of them very small studs." 



"When you retired from racing in 1886 you had just 

 begun breeding good ones." 



"Oh, yes. I suppose I made a mistake selling the 

 breeding stock. Just recall how many good ones I had 

 bred— Dewdrop, Wanda, Exile, Flirt, Sleipner, Sirocco, 

 Cholula, Chimera, Quito, Savanac, Hiawasse, Pontiac, 

 Gerald and I don't know how many more. Of course, 

 most of my mares were old, but I would have soon had 

 a crop of younger ones. I notice Lord Falmouth never 

 raced his fillies after they were three years old, but bred 

 them, and hereafter I shall observe that policy."
