Bredon is very lightly come from Jober, which is down to treated, but the distance may be just 148 lbs. thus receiving 16 lbs. from a little too far for its liking. I fancy Rob Roy and, with a change in Jockey Violet Queen to win, Zadiac giving it a (Mr. Raymond is riding), it may turn good fight, and Brutus for the other

minor position. out all for the good.

Lancashire Lass is fast, but it may not be able to last out the mile-over a much shorter distance, I would have no hesitation in nominating it for a win.

Expansion Time is coming on nicely, and, with Mr. Needa up, it should certainly be well backed, I think this combination is well worth a ticket each way. My nomination is: Rob Roy to win, with Jober giving it a good fight, of Expansion Time capable causing an upset. Lancashire Lass is the outsider.

RACE NO. 7: CLEAR WATER BAY HANDICAP: SIX FURLONGS,

The result of the second leg. of the Daily Double will be decided by ponies of "E" Class that have not won more than $650 in stakes.

Emergency Call, Mr. Encarnacao up, is my choice, which is based on its per- formance when it came second to Fei Ying in the Stonecutters Plate at the 6th Extra Meeting.

Double Chance (Mr. A. D. Coppin) is given top weight and, although it will be conceded an allowance of 5 lbs. with a Novice Jockey on top, I am inclined to leave it alone.
