COLOMBO SURPRISE AT ASCOT
Beaten At Five To One On. By Flamenco
(Special Air Mail Service)
-Londen, June 20.
The first day of Ascot had its sensational feature, perhaps more so than in any average year. There was the defeat in the seventh and concluding race of Colombo, the horse that needs no introduction to readers, writes a correspondent. At 5 to 1 on he could not beat Lord Rosebery's Flamenco, whose art ing price was 100 to 0.
Their Majesties the King and Queen purposely "waited Colombo's race. As a rule they leave the Royal Enclosure before
the last race.

The first of the handicaps, the Ascot Stakes, had an astounding result when won by the 25 to 2 chance, Hands Off, with all the Another fancied horses 'routed, outsider to score was Duplicate, who for Sir Charles Byde, won The Gold Vase. The two-year- olds were staunch in the sense that the winners of the Coven- try Stakes and Queen Mary Stakes were great public fancies.
To-day prudent backers will play lightly where the Royal Hunt Cup is concerned. The maker of the handicap, Mr. Arthur Fawcett, is as much battled as most of us to find the winner of the problem which he created.
My own view is that if I had to make a backing book I would have to support at the right prices about a dozen horses and then, perhaps experience the devasta- ting sensation of having missed the winner..

Before Baby comes
The expectant mother should be careful to remember that she must supply all the calcium needed to form her baby's bones and tissues.
