THE TIGER
In the first section of the Island Bay Handicap The Tiger appears to have the best chance, although the handicapper has seen at to load him with top weight. The victory of Gold Currency in Macao is still fresh in the minds of those ho visited the Aeria Preta course recently and no doubt not a few people will back this candidate. Personally I don't think he will win, though a place is not impro- bable.

BRECHIN FANCIED The race for "B" Class over six furlongs should provide a close tussle between Brechin (Mr. Botel- ho), Gladiator (Mr. Heard), Don (Mr. Deltz), Soldier of China (Mr. Soares) and possibly Bright View (Mr. Laing).
With regard frankly, I don't think he will win with the weight' allotted to him. Were the, distance a little longer. I should feel more opimistic about. his chances, but six furlongs is not his distance.
Brechin with only 152 pounds in the saddle should not be very far away. As a matter of fact his his chances are distinctly bright. Gladiator is a bit of a sprinter and if Mr. Heard can get this pony in front in the earlier stages of the race he might even win, but it will be a job to head Brechin off.
Of the chances of Don and Soldier of China, I prefer the lat- ter, who is going out with Mr. Soares in the saddle. Spinaway, and Prima Donna, High Speed Mayflower should not worry the
