AFTERNOON UPSETS

OF

FI FA AND IRON GREY WIN THE

“DOUBLES”

Liberty Bay's New Record

Half For Mile And

(BY "MORNING DEW")

Favourites had a distinctly bad day on Saturday with the result that good dividends were the rule rather than the exception.

Liberty Bay and Iron Grey were the only favourites who were triumphant. The former won the St. Andrew's Stakes over a mile and a half in record time, while the lat ter, as predicted, had no difficulty in accounting for Swale in the Novices event.

The biggest dividend of the day was paid by Don who won the "B Class race over a mile in 2.00.3, beating a very good field in one of the most spectacular finishes seen for some time.

Lady Peel's candidate, Lucy Glitters scored a popu. lar win in the Coogee Handicap when she accounted for "some of the best Australian ponies in the Colony.

Punters were very badly hit when the favourites for the fourth race, (The Panther and King Salmon) were both beaten by Fi Fa. This was the first leg of the "Doubles and although the second leg fell to Iron Grey, a hot favourite, the Doubles" paid $103..
