The subscription griffins of 1934 are evenly matched and there seems to be a likelihood of the honours in the principal events falling to different stables.
It will be recalled that the presence of Racing Boy and Bistre in the 1932. lot, rather spoiled the racing so far as subscription griffins were concerned. Last year things were slightly better, although Warrington had more than his fair share of the spoils.

For the 1934 season, it seems that things would be mare satisfactory and if the training form is any criterion, then it looks as if the task of picking winners in races confined to subscription griffins will be very difficult indeed.

Below will be found some notes on promising subscription griffins of the day.
WHAT ABOUT SOLDIER OF ITALY?
Ar the recent auction, the tit-bit of the sale was "Can Catchy", which had been drawn by the late Mr. Ho Leung. The pony is dis- tinetly good and I suppose that was the reason why, in the early, stages, so many of the owners were "anxious to make a bid for him, for this pony appears to be a very good thing for the Valleys. When the bidding became brisk, however, there were, only two bld- ders and the ultimate buyer, Mr. Lij Shlu Pang, bad to pay over $1,000 for this candidate. He has ance named him Soldier of Italy.
This pony has been responsible for some good track work, and while I would not say that he is the best subscription griffin in training, Soldier of Italy strikes me as being a bargain at the price paid for him at the auction.

To date he has done the best mile, taking 2.17 over the journey. Admittedly the finish was
moves impressive, but the bay
of his freely and in the course mile gallop he took 1.06 for the Intermediate half mile, and looking over the training times, I find that with one exception no other pony has done the half mile under this time.
SARABANDE
good sprrater, though for all uns can say he might turn out to be a stayer as well. King Willow is a name to bear in mind, and if Y.-S. Chang rides him, his chances will improve a hundred per cen for Chang is in a class by himself. with subscription griffins. I re- member him riding Buchanan, Gallant Fox, Jan Stewer to victory, and one can't forget how Racing Boy (also ridden by him) cleaned up all the big races in 1932.
CHESTERFIELD
the end of his training gallops and his progress during the next few weeks will be interesting to watch.
'RED FOX
be in Miss Shenton seems to luck this season, for after drawing a good Australian pony in Fanling Fox, she has gone and drawn one of the equally good China pony subs, in Red Fox, a thestnut of 13.2. This pony has been very consistent in his work at the sand track and looks to me Uke a good bet in the Valley Stakes.

KITSAP
Mrs. Dunbar has a promising candidate in Kitsap, a., bay of 14 hands. The pony, however, does not look good enough when com- pared with Sarabande and Bran Tub but Kitsap will be prominent in some of the minor races and should be. remembered. His best mile has been in 221; so far and I have seen him, put in a very convincing last quarter of 31 on one occasion.

Jibsheet is coming along nicely
