SPECTACULAR FINISH
Doncaster, Sept. 13.
The Maharajah Gackwar of Baroda won Britain's last classic of the season, the St. Leger, with his colt, Sayajirao after one of the most specta- cular finishes in the long history of the race. Only half a mile from homme Sayajirao was the last of a field of eleven starters, and his supporters must have feared the worst. But, superbly ridden by his Australian-born jockey, Edgar Britt, he hit the front two furlongs from home after an amazing dash from the rear and warded off a determined last-minute chal- lenge from the French invader Arbar, to win by a head, with the favourite, the Aga Khan's Migoli, three lengths further away third, and the Derby winner, Pearl Diver, fourth.
