Having read in my youth of the disqualification of a half-dead Italian called Dorando at the White City in 1908, and having watched a stretcher-case Englishman called Jim Poters carted off to hospital in Vancouver in 1954, this column has conviction that Marathon runners are the crazy men of athletics.

Market And The
Form Leaves Leger Wide Open
Says RICHARD BAERLEIN
The first call-over on the St. Leger (September 12) | suggests that the race is worth considering in same detail. The three-year-olds engaged in the race appear quite the worst selection since the war and there must be the possibility of some long-priced candidates finding sufficient form to beat those which have been promoted to the head of the market.
The Queen's gallant colt, High Veldt. has won two raees over a mile.
In the first he beat Rustam by a length, and in the second defeated Prepayment by three, quarters of a length.
