King's Filly Fails At Ascot Races
Only One Favourite Successful
London, June 13. The weather was dull and cool at Ascot to-day and the Royal Process- ion was greatly missed, but the presence of the Dukes and Duchesses of Gloucester and Kent and the Prin- cess Royal made the meeting a truly royal one.
A large crowd was greatly disap- pointed inanclolly and otherwise at the failure of the King's two-year- old filly, Great Truth, in the Queen Mary Sakes, for which it started a 3-1 favourite, the race being won by Lord Lonsdale's Snowberry, starting at 4-1 and ridden by Gordon Richards.
Robert Lazard's French coil, MacKann, proved his reputation as the best miler in France by easily winning the Queen Anne Stakes, starting at 0-4. In this race, the trained but American-bred English
