. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. TWENTY-FIFTH DAY-. -FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1. SIT WAS a blues-provoking day, with leaden skies, and late in the after- noon a fog obscured every- thing a sixteenth of a mile away. It was a good day for surprises and mud-Iarks.° and a fair-sized crowd went out to see the races. Favorites fared badly pretty much all day, for only one of them got home in front, and be (Bordeaux) ras not a pronounced choice, Eicardo ranking with him. 'bus the pencilers had a lot the best of it. The successful jockeys to-doy were Irving.SIoan and Madi- dd. The former piloted no less than three horses first past he post and one third out of the four mounts he had—a f'onderful showing, truly. Georgetown won the first race in beautiful style after get- ng away third. He went to the front early in the action, nd was not to be headed. Valparaiso and Crawford had a reat struggle for place, the latter securing it in the gamest ishion by a head. Crawford was played for thousands, and as at 6 to 5 in the betting, Georgetown 3 to 1. Green Hock is a great mud horse, beyond all doubt, but ice-players did not know it until the race was over. He was 115 to 1 in the betting, and simply romped away from his eld, winning very easily. Blizzard was an even-money ivorite in this race, and the best he could do was run up lird. April, the runner-up, was at 20 to 1 for place at the lose, and was really as big a surprise as Green Hock. Zampost, to cap the climax, beat the very speedy filly igress, and again crushed the talent. Verily this Zampost a mud-lark. He eats mud, and seems to like it. Tigress, te favorite, and Zampost raced away in front, and, try as le might, the little filly could never reach the son of Post uard and Zamora. Sloan gave up the game less than a xteenth from home, and it was worth a good deal to see impost come away and win with his mouth wide open. The fourth race was one of the best betting affairs we have en in the last few days. There were seven starters,
