KEEN RACING ON SECOND DAY OF EASTER MEETING: CONFUSION BAY & BURFORD IN DEAD-HEAT

Guinness Time Pays The Biggest Win Dividend

In strong contrast to the damp and dismal conditions in which the opening day of the "Easter meeting of the Bongkong Jockey Club was fun, the second day's pro- gramme was held in delightful weather yesterday when there was a large crowd at the Valley.

The track, however, was still slightly soft and the times returned were, therefore, somewhat slow. The racing was. very keen, nevertheless, and there were some close and ex- citing finishes.
