CASTLE PEAK HANDICAP

One of the best finishes seen in Happy Valley for many a long day was provided in the Castle Peak Handicap when Wild Life (Mr. D. Black finished with an excellent burst of speed to win the Castle Peak Handicap from Gladiator (Mr. F. Marshall) who was a short head in front of Bear Claw (Mr. S. L Yuen). The finish was very thrill- ing, the issue being in doubt till the very end."

Oak Bay. (Mr. W. H. S. Davis) and Gladiator ran side by side for three parts of the race but after the Rock was passed Bear Claw moved up and ran together with the two leading ponies. Then at the Dis- tance Post Wild Life came up like a streak and challenged the leaders strongly, eventually winning by a head.
