HONG KONG DAILY PRESS, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1930.
CHINESE OWNERS' DAY AT HAPPY
VALLEY
"ZORHAN WINS AGGREGATE STAKES BY SIX LENGTHS:
EASILY ACCOUNTS FOR PRIDE OF TSINGTAO.
HEAVÝ COURSE AND GOING AGAINST FAVOURITES: NATIONALIST - II.
AND HERODOM DISAPPOINT.
CHRISTMAS BELLE PAYS BIG DIVIDEND.
Saturday's racing certainly proved conclusively that Mr. Chan Tin Sion has the best stable in Hong Kong. His representative Zorhan won the Aggregate Stakes in convincing fashion, ac 'counting for Pride of Tsingtao without any effort as I predicted. Another representative from this stable won tho "A" Clasa handicap over à mils and a quarter by several lengths from Mike and Nationalist II, and in fact his running was so good that there nover was any doubt from the Go" that he was running in a class by himself. In the other "A" Cines handicap over three-quarters of a milo Winsomma, Stag fought Royal Flush over every inch of the ground in the straight and lost on the post by the smallest of margins conceivable. Mr. A. J. P. Heard won this event on Royal Flush, and the horsemanship of this experienced jockey was a great factor in dopriving Winsome Stag of victory.
f
Just prior to the start a small but continuous shower fell, and its effect on the course was to make it very heavy. Consequently, times were on the,alow side. The biggest dividond of the day was paid by Christmas Belle in tho "B" Class six furlongs handicap,
The pony was brought homo by Mr. Backhouse, a much-improved jockey, to pay over 8330 per ticket,
Chiness owners, it will be seen from the results,, won six out of the nine races on the
card,
