It is stated on good authority says a London, Kngland, paper, that the King of Spain, who is taking an ever-increasing interest jn the sport of horse-nacing, proposes to be pre- sent at the Ascot Meeting this year, and it is not improbable that his own colors may be carried. As His Majesty's visit will be a private one, he will doul'tless come as the Duc de Toledo, under which title he races in Spain. He may also take advant- age of this private visit to England to go to Newmarket, the headquart- ers, of the British Turf, to have a look round some of the leading stables there. King Alfonso has thoughout his life shown himself to be so keen and enthusiastic a sports- man of the highest type that this vis- it to England for the purpose of getting a closer insight into the way horse-racing is carried on in this country will be welcomed by every- body New International Schedule.
