MR. W. T. STANTON WINS POLO SCURRY ON TARGET.
[BY MORNING DEW."]"
In spite of much that was written on Spearmint's chances against Zorban in the Third Aggregate Stakes, the latter won in effortless fashion on Saturday. Mr. Harriman, who rode the favourite, timed his mount beautifully and never so much as urged the pony in the straight when. it was still behind Spearmint a furlong from home. Zorhan simply romped in most confidently and proved once again that he is certainly the heat animal in Hong Kong since the annual meeting.
The intermittent rain during the afternoon, coupled with the sodden state of the course, with its subsequent heavy going, was responsible for the failure of several favourites, resulting “ in big dividends, Shanghai Beau, Fifty Fifty, Mountain Oak and Silver Queen were some of the unexpected ones to turn up, and if the rain comes on again to-day there should be a goodly proportion of outsiders sharing the honours.
The attendance, in view of the uncompromising weather, left little to he desired, and a word of credit is due to the starter who so efficiently carried out his duties. The starting of races" was not so much delayed as previously, and the latest race was finished well before 7 p.m. The Folo Pony Scurry, went to Mr. Stanton, who was undoubtedly mounted on the best pony-Target.
Mr. Heard was the most successful jockey of the day, riding two winners, a second and three thirds in seven outings. Mr. Balteel had two wins and Mr. Harriman a win and three second places.· `-
