NIGHT STAR'S SUPREMACY CHALLENGED

KEEN RACING ANTICIPATED THIS

AFTERNOON: EVERY EVENT VERY OPEN

MUDLARKS MAY HAVE A GOOD DAY

(BY ** MORNING DEW '')'

Followers of local racing have been looking forward to the race meeting this afternoon as the entries and handicaps are of such a character that some very fine sport might be confidently expected. There is not a single certanty for the afternoon, except perhips in the case of Don in the novices event.

The best Australian ponies will clash over e zix hurlongs spriat and Night Star will be carrying top weight this time. He well fancied and should win,

It is not anticipated that times will be on the fast side "* the rain during the past two days is sure to affect the going. Should it be dritshing this siternoon, there is a distinct likelihooda cone or more big dividends, as so far, the ponies which have been acing- this season have not been given any opportunity to prove that they are mudlarks.

Mirs Bay Handicap, There are no less than twenty-six entries in this race for "C" Class candidates over 1 mile and it is therefore anticipated that the field will be quite big: Opinion is very divided as to where the winner will be found. Many think that Marquis Hall wil supply the answer as it is considered that he is a bit too good to be in the "C" Class. Dee, it is learned, is not starting in this event. Street Singer did poorly the last time he ran (on March 18) but he will be running with 10 pounds less and the distance is slightly shorter to-day, so he might redeem himself. Alexandra Hall has been a very consistent per- former so far and there is no rea son why he should not be pro- minent in today's race.
