RIPLEY ‘The career of a jockey who rides “on the flat” is measured by his ability to keep his poundage in check. The bane of hia life is in- | creasing weight. When he reaches man’s estate old Dame Nature no} longer is to be denied, and he is confronted with the necessity of engaging in some other department ot the sport if he would continue to be identified with It. Some become “touts” and “tipsters.” The better type take out a trainer's license and condition thoroughbreds for racing or become steeplechase riders. Ten years ago one of the leading | Jockeys on the American turf was Vincent Powers, In 1908 and 1909 he was rated at the top of the list of the most successful riders. In those two years he brought some- thing lke 600 mounts down in front. At that time there were more good riders than there are to day, and Powers was ranked with the very best of them, Then he be- gan to take on wetght It became more and more difficult for him to ride at a low scale. When this happened was Powers downhearted? He was not. He promptly became a steeplechase “Jock.” The success Por achieved on the flat he duplicated in the Jumps. A jumper is pounds better horse when Vince is in the rider is in the pilot house. He has the same vogue among steeple- chase lovers that Johnny Loftus and Im Verne Fator and one or two others have on the flat, There are }Powers players just as there are al, VERY FEW AND FAR BETWEEN saddle than it is when some other | JOCKEYS ARE Loftus and Fator supporters. Powers heads the list of steeple- chase riders thus far this season. | He has not had as many mounts as some of his rivals, but he has a better winning percentage. Powers was to the turf born. He is 27 years old now, His father, G0 on the half-mile and fair ground tracks throughout the country When he was only 13 and weighed but 80 pounds Vince rode his dad's horses in these scrub races Powers is now under contract t Mrs, Harry Payne Whitney, who races in the name of the Greentree stable, Contrary to popular belief, ers does not consider the chase sport more hazardous than the flat, The average thinks that a jumping jockey takes his life in his hands every time h puts his mount at a hurdle. Vir disagrees with thie view.
