April r. i-leclal. The outlook for Charles Koliler s racing en terprise In Kngland Is not too hopeful. Kvery one thought the antagonism to American owners disappeared when I'.lchard Croker was Invited to continue his activities at Newmarket, after be ing unceremoniously asked by the Joekey Club to take bis horses and him self elsewhere. Hut for some reason, which Is not clearly disclosed, this same body now refuses to license Sam C. Hlldretli as a trainer In Knglund. so that If Charles Kohler's horses are to make an appear ance on the Kngllsh track during the coming season they must be saddled by a trainerlready licensed. This action of the Jockey Club Is deeply resented by many of the leading "sports." who feel that racing In Kng land Is already sufficiently handicapped without such Irritating Interferences on the part of the body that ought to en courage and support the enterprise of "new blood." As Kohler has no Idea of repudiat ing his trainer, and as the Jockey Club magnates do not appear to have any ob jection to blm as an owner, he means to try other pla' s. He will ue France as a training ground and have his horses saddled in F.ngland by one or other of the American trainers already estab lished here x France Boom Craft ff fhe Air. Baltimore American.
