MR. HARRIMAN AGAIN IN FORM: HEADS WINNING" LIST.

HIAWATHA PROVES INVULNERABLE.

[By "MORNING DEW."]

The race for the Aggregate Stakes on Saturday at the Seventh Extra Meeting of the Hoag Kong Jockey Club will be long remembered by those who saw it. Neither Chesapeake Bay_nor Christmas Chimes was made favourite, the public preferring the lightly weighted Winsome Stag. In spite of his weight, however, Winsome Stag was hard pressed and only managed to win by half a length in a thrilling race described below. Christmas Chimes ran atcond and thereby won the Aggregate Cup for the most consistent performance during the season.

Mr. Harriman again headed the list of winning jockeys be accuring two first, two seconds and a third Mr. Harriman was never unplaced, starting only five times during the afternoon. Mr. Soares rode two winners, Mr. Heard a winner and two seconds, Mr. Laing (a novice) a winner and a second, Mr. Cave won the novice race and obtained a third in the "D" Class and Mr. Newbiggin won the curtain-raiser!

Dividends on the whole were satisfactory and the day's sport was not marred by ent or incident and the support from the public was very good.
