Royal Ascot Moves To Newmarket

LONDON, July i (Reuter). Some of the glorica of Royal Ascot will, be revived' at New- market on Wednesday and Thurs- day where substitute races for those.normally held on the famions Berkshire Heath will be run.

With the exception of the Derby winner, Owen Tudor, which is unlikely to run again until the St Leger in September, all the leading horses are enguged for the valuable prizes offer- ed by the Ascot authorities who, though unable to use their own course which is serving other purposes, are anxious to maintain such events ng the Coventry Stakes and Queen Mary Stakes for two-year-olds, St James Palace Stokes for three-year-olds and the Gold Cup."
