Of the three sons of the present Sovereign who have graced the race course at Happy Valley with their attendance, the latest to come, H.R.H. the Duke of Glou- cester, was the first to ride in, an official race. This occurred on Saturday when the Royal visitor, on the last day of his stay here. en route to Japan as head of the 13. "Garter Mission," postponed the hour of his official departure in order to enjoy four mounts.
a
Considering the fact that His Royal Highness had ridden China pony only on Thursday- and that in a polo match-and had not galloped round the track, he did exceedingly well. His dis- play of horsemanship was con- vincing, his starting (there being no "gate" as is usual on the "flat" at Home) excellent, and his judg- ment shrewd.
Weighing out in the first four of the eight events on the card, His Highness was never made favourite, although he received considerable aupport from punters, especially among Chinese and in the public enclosure.
His Grat mount finished third, then he was unplaced twice, and his) last ride also disappointed in a field of three.
Although the start had been put off for half an hour in order to give His Royal Highness time to attend: the Chinese luncheon, he was down on the course very early, accom- panied by members of his staff and by H.E. the Governor (Sir Cect) Clementi, K.C.M.G.) and His Excel-- lency's personal staff.
