For the first leg of the Dally Double, which is confined to "D" Class ponies, I think the finish will be fought out between Sunlight View (Pih). Plain View (Encar-

It will not be easy to pick a winner here and successful holders of tickets on the first leg will have some difficulty in completing their Dally Double. I particularly like Golden Cow of late and consider his chatices very bright. Ascot Vale has to carry 168 lbs. but it does not completely ruin this black's chances.
Bressay is another danger with only 154 lbs. to shoulder. Shilling Time will probably be taken out by Mr. Encamacao and the combina- tion is sure to and strong support. Emergency Call, Willy Nilly, Mats- dor and The Leopard are about the most promising among the balance.
