- Andrew_Tilles abstract "Andrew "Cap" Tilles (Nov. 25, 1865 - Nov. 22, 1951) was an American business magnate and philanthropist. At an early age, Tilles adopted his childhood nickname of Cap, which he used for the rest of his life. Tilles was co-founder and president of a St. Louis, Missouri based investment syndicate that dominated the US horse racing industry in the early 20th century. The media nicknamed the partnership "The Big Three" for their monopolization of the Midwestern and Southern tracks. However, Tilles preferred "C.A.T.", after the three principal partners: Louis A. Cella, Samuel W. Adler, and C. A. Tilles. As President, Tilles acquired 25 horse racing tracks across the United States, the most of any person in US history. By World War One, the Big Three had acquired most every major non-coastal horse race track in the country, with the exception of Hawthorne Race Course in Chicago and Churchill Downs. Tilles revolutionized the horse racing industry, introducing electricity to the game, developing the modern system of licensing book makers, and holding the first ever recorded instance of night racing.Tilles was also associated with the cigar, real estate, stock, and brokerage businesses. In particular, Tilles made a personal fortune in real estate, owning lucrative properties for development and sale along the famed Loop of Delmar Boulevard in St. Louis, Missouri. In later years, Tilles turned towards philanthropy, which among other charitable acts, initiated a sizable foundation for the education of poor children, as well as funding and developing three separate municipal parks that remain in use to this day.".
