A fitting wind-up to the excitement of a race day is a visit to the Coronet Theatre, and a glimpse of Harold Lloyd in his comedy High and Dizzy. If that doesn't cap the climax, then nothing else will. So far, he has had the audience at each performance giving gasps squeals of mingled horror amazement.
