The Australians
Little Audrey still seems to lay claim to the title of "champion fiyer" of the 1998 Australian subs- cription ponies though Annabella should be considered as a very worthy challenger. These ponies are both very fast and should do well in the sprint events, especially The Sydney Maidens. Tornado Star, who fully justifies the name, appeals to me quite a lot and I am sure the trainer is now more than compensated for the trouble and patience he took in breaking in this lively chestnut mare.

The draw was made earlier in the week and the tournament is on the knock-out system.
The first match "of the day win be between the Recreio Ladles and the Hong Kong Ladies. The latter should enter the semi-finals as they have a better team. "The re- turn of Miss M. Remedios should give the Recreio attack impetus though it is doubtful whether they will get very far against the steady defence of the former Caer Clark Cup holders with such stalwarts as. Miss E. M.

R.A.M.C. ASSOCIATION.
Interest in the Hong Kong Derby. the Blue Riband, of the local turf, has been intensifed lately due to several creditable gallops by a few of the lesser known candidates. Moonlight View, despite a number of fairly good grials over the mile did not create much interest until last week when this black gelding was sent over the Derby course (1-1/2 miles) and did exceptionally well. Taking 3.18-4/5 for the full distance. the last half mile was done in 1.02-4/5 and the last quar- ter covered in 31.4/5 seconds; a truly remarkable performance and one that few, if any, of the rall fans and enthusiasts thought this pony capable of performing.
