As a result of the encouraging entries, fields should be much larger than usual and if the public display the same keen interest. there should be a very large attendance, with probable strong sup port from the Hongkong racing fraternity view of the summer recess here.

HOBART HANDICAP

On paper Subpoena should be the logical one to follow in this event, which is also over six fur. longs. Incidentally, every event: on the programme is over this same distance. This pony will benefit by the flag start in Macao! as at the last meeting she did not seem to take too well to the gute at the Valley,

Buckfastleigh is slowly improv ing in form and should be capable of securing a place. The remain- ing position should be fought out between Rising Star. Dick Turpin and High Hat. The latter may be

worth taking as the outsider in this face.

LAPPA HANDICAP This will be the best race of the afternoon and I think Blue Field will be the eventual winner, with strong opposition from Lancashire Lass &.Odeon. Jennifer looks rather promising at 133 lbs, while Oscar Zylch should not be overlooked as he won quite convincingly at the Whitsun Meeting.
