PRESIDENT HALL RUNS
EVE TO A DEAD HEAT: GRIFFINS ENTIRELY OUTCLASSED.
TONBRIDGE WINS THE SUBSCRIPTION GRIFFINS' CHAMPIONS.
FULL RESULTS AND FIGURES OF SATURDAY'S RACING:
AT HAPPY VALLEY.
[BY MORNING DEW."]
The last of the five days' meeting of the Hong Kong Jockey Club provided plenty of thrills for racing enthusiasts: In the Hong Kong Handicap "A" Class, President Hall and Boxing Eve, ran'a great race over a mile and a quarter, and were level on passing the winning post. President Hall was well-fancied to win, but some of those who saw Boxing Eve running on Wed- netdny last fancied him, and the decision of the judges-a dead heat-naturally pleased support- ers of both camps. Incidentally, some of the best griffins of this year (Wisdom Stag, Pepper- mint, etc.) accepted for this race, but were entirely outclassed.
The Subscription Griffine Champions proved nuother thrilling race. to win, but he lost by a length and a half to Mrs. Pearce's Tonbridge. place.
י
Tango was well fancied
Loch Fyne took third
The weather was ideal for racing, and the attendance left nöthing to be desired. The dresses of the ladies-both Western and Oriental-added plenty of colour and gaiety to the meet- ing, and, on the whole, the meeting for 1930 is a memorable one both for the racing and the huge attendance.
THE RACING.
The "Hay and Corn" Stakes, Cream Cracker took a flying start in this race, but was no match for Armony, who passed him easily at the Rock, and, gradually increasing the lead, inished comfortably with two and a half lengths to spare.
The Jamaica, who was badly placed at the start, made up a good deal of ground at the concluding stages of the race.
The "Loltarers" Staken. Picallili got away with Gay Caballero, and these two ponies led in the straight when Picalili drew ahead and won comfortably. Witty Stag also joined issue in the straight with Gay Caballero, but
the latter held him off by half
|length." Abel was a good fourth.
The “All Out" Stakes.
San Francisco took advantage of a good start to establish a lead of four lengths. Fair Sport was next and King's Courier, and his stable companion King's Counsel brought up the rear. In the straight Fair Sport caught up with San Francisco, and, running easily, won by three lengths. King's Courier was third, four lengths behind.
