Double Tenth Plate

LUCY GLITTERS HAS BIG TASK IN AUSTRALIAN - EVENT

(By "Morning Dew")

Interest in to-day's races at Happy Valley is heighten- ed by the fact that Diana Bay, Champion China pony of 1930, 1931 and 1932, will be meeting Trentbridge, the Derby winner of this year, over five furlongs in the Double Tenth Plate. The race will have to be won in record time.

The distribution of weights has made to-day's pro- gramme extremely interesting, and though it is possible For some of Saturday's winners to turn up again, it is unlikely that all the "also rans'' will again be left in the cold.

Lucy. Glitters will have a very big task in front of her this afternoon if she goes to the post with 170 pounds in the race for "B" Class Australian ponies.

Washington, Uct, 9. Uncommonly anxious eyes will fol- low the nation-wide "Buy Now" com- paign which is opening in the United States, to-day. General Hugh 8. Johnson and other leaders consider that failure will mean the collapse of the N. I. R. A. movement.

The journal Business Week" ports that construction activity has expanded and that the demand for taxtiles in renewed: but the strikes have visibly affected coal and steel production.

The journal "Econnata!” asserts that business has reached the turning point- and is now ripe to resume the advance which was arrested at the end of July.

Hence, the new drive begins hope

fully.

President Roosevelt is expected to roject inflation in favour of reducing the gold content of the dollar and also to modify the Securities Act to permit the re-opening of private capital mar- kets-Renter.

The opening race of the day will prove extremely interesting, now that the weights have been re-shuff led Brue Star has gone up to top weight at 188 pounds and candidly his win this afternoon will prove a surprise. Cossack's Beauty ought to find the shorter distance his liking and is my selection for the race. I thought The Tiger ran pretty well in his last outing and now that a few pounds has been taken off his load, he might be a handy place bet.

FESTIVAL EVE

There seem to be no reason why Festival Eve should not win the "D" Class race over a mile as he ran so well with two pounds less on Baturday over a slightly longer distance. Adam also has only 148 pounds to care for and should be able to repeat his exhibition of last week, Wembley Stag has had nine pounds taken on him and should be quite well up in this race, Warrington may start here instead of in the fifth race, but he does not look 'a winner to me.
