It will be noticed that in the absence of Mr. D. S. Li the Fatshan stable crack is being entrusted to Mr. Chang. In spite of the general opinion that Able Amazon will break the record held by Night Star. Woodland Stag is going to be a very serious menace. He is in excel- lent condition and the distance best suits him. Night Star has a habit of being off colour on one day and at her best the next, so she will re- quire watching.
