RACING

BY "NOMAD"

Opinions will differ as to which was the best place of riding on Sat urday. Many will perhaps say that Rosy Morn's victory was due in a great measure to Deitz' horseman ahip. Others will tell you that no ΟΠΟ else but Frost could have brought Warrington first past the "post in the Suba St. Leger and yet others will tell you that Heard's win on No Fear was as meritorious As any of the other successes. Proulx rode both the winners in the five furlongs race and in both "in- atances certainly showed

good riding at the start when he got his mounts in front almost in the first stride. All this goes to show that there is plenty of good sport to be seen at our race meetings and that the riding is of a high standard. I know that many will disagree with me that the best bit of riding seen On Saturday was S. Y. Sung's effort on Vigilance. I have never seen a sprinter handled in a better man ner in a wg race than the way Sucg look after Frost taken the slightest gamble, Vigilance.

No doubt a number of people are congratulating themselves on having backed the "Doubles" for the first time, but have they looked at it in the way I have set out!
