Excepting in maces where winners are barred, it looks as though there is now not very much chance of any outsiders turning up in races for the second lot of subscription griffins. The ponies which have won so far are Gay Butterfly (1), De Minimis (2) National Day (2) and Vigilance (1). Of these four ponies, Gay Butterfly has been placed once in addition to his win,

If the suggest comes too late for the present jacst- ing, it is worth considering for fu- ture meetings.

Of the matches decided, the most interest- ing and koerly-contested was, the one between Chinese Athletic and South China on Wednesday.
