Turbulent Year in Racing Stats From Kirk's Guide 1880
Statistics from Kirk's Guide to the Turf for 1880 recount 1,272 actual races won in the United States and dominion of Canada after removing six dead heats and two void races. Of these, 1,125 were by horses with known pedigrees and 147 by unknowns. 104 of the known-pedigree wins were in the United States and Canada, with 23 abroad. The report notes reductions vs 1878, citing fewer heats and limited domestic meetings. It also includes a quirky English note about a costly Turkish bridge project and delays causing government and naval waste.
