SELECTIONS FOR CANTON AND FANLING
TWO FINE RACE MEETINGS
LOCAL GRAND NATIONAL
OPENING OF NEW CANTON: COURSE
(By "Ringtail".)
It is, perhaps, a little unfortunate that the Canton and Fanling race meetings clash to-morrow, for both offer such enticing fare for the turf enthusiast, that he will have a difficult job making up his mind. which event to patronisc.
Especial interest centres in the Canton meeting, for it sees the opening of the new course at Shek-Pai. A considerable amount of detail has been worked out in connexion with it, and not only has a good course been prepared, with a sod embankment-probably the only one of its kind in the East. but the comfort of the racegoers has received attention, and com- modious stands have been erected.
The main event is the Mayor's 'Cup race, and a fine race is assur- ed. I rather fancy Royal Flush as the winner, with Powerful King) and Amoy offering strong chal- lengers.

Yesterday the 1st. H.KS. Bat- tery in their Mamak tournament game with the Medway on the Marina were only able to force a draw and as a result are out of the running for the league champion- ship.
The result came rather as a sur- prise in view of the poor hockey, the Medway have been playing lately. Yesterday, however, they turned up trumps and in the first half had the better of the ex-" changes, netting once without re- ply, through Holmes. Although
