RACING NOTES.
[BY RAPIER.]
There was nothing of interest-to record yesterday morning at Happy Valley as only a few half miles were done with exception of Peck who did a natie in 2.13.1.
The form of most of the ponies is pretty well known and owners are now faced with the problem of selecting the most suitable races for their ponies. There will be a certain amount of sparring amongst them on this important question.
