HEAVY RAIN MARS MACAO RACE MEETING

HOGMANAY CARRIES OFF GOVERNOR'S CUP WITH

GREATEST OF EASE

Heavy rain, combined with the scarcity of runners in some of the more important events, contrived to bring out a smaller attendance at Macao yesterday afternoon than otherwise would have been the case, for a fine programme had been arranged with the Governor's Cup as its centrepiece.

In this event some well known ponies competed but owing to the fact that Hogmanay, was reputed to be a mudlark he was the only pony in the race backed with any confidence, which he subsequently backed up by winning by many lengths.
