TWO CHAMPIONS TO BE DECIDED TODAY

POLAR STAR AND WOODLAND STAG

DUE FOR RETURN MATCH THIS AFTERNOON

SUBS CHAMPIONS VERY OPEN: WARRING TON AND JINGLE SHOULD START FAVOURITES

(BY ** MORNING DEW**)

To-day racegoers will see the last of the Annual Race Meeting, and" with eight races on the card there is promise of interesting things during the afternoon, particularly in the handicaps where big "dividends are foreshadowed,

The main attraction of the siternoon is of course the subscrip- tion griffins champions. This race is likely to draw at least eight to ten starters and with honours evenly distributed in this class carlier in the meeting, it seems probably that the backing will be well sprinkled amongst the different candidates."

Polar Star and Woodland Stag are due fon al return match this. afternoon in the Australian Ponies Champions. Woodland Stag won the last time when these two met over a slightly shorter "dis- tanea than will be run this afternoon, and it looks as though an- other sterling dual is ahead.

Flemington Plate, There is no telling who may win this race for Australian ponies which have started and have not won as well as for ponies which have not won more than $1,000 in 1939.
