THE PUNTER
FOR
FULL SEASON'S STATISTICS FOR TO-DAY'S RACE MEETING
THE
THE following statistics for the season (Including all ponies in official races at the Valley and Macao), essential to every punter, have been compiled to date to give the average man who knows little or nothing about form the chance of saving a few dollars from rash and reckless betting. The punter is strongly ad- vised not to back the leading jockeys in every race-that does not generally pay at the Valley-but a glance at the list should give some indication of whether the pony the particular jockey is taking out is worth backing or not.
