Jockey Greenfield Aims for Bigger Pay After France Triumph
New York publicizes Samuel Thompson Greenfield, the Californian teen who won the Prix des Glaces in France and returns with plans for a richer future. The rider, born in New York, earned about 12,000 dollars last year for Pfizer in Europe and predicts Willie Shaw will receive a record 20,000 dollars annual salary. Greenfield praises American jockeys abroad and notes racing-legal debates as Albany considers a repeal of the Percy Gray act.

Albany Tomorrow Aims to Weaken Percy-Gray Gambling Law
District Attorney Jerome heads to Albany to propose amendments to the Percy Gray law. He seeks to turn horse race betting into a misdemeanor, restrict or end racing in New York, and replace gambling income with a fixed state appropriation for agricultural societies. The plan targets track bookmaking and the civil remedy provision, aiming to reduce racing profits and shift funding to agriculture.
