perience. -Harmakis and Litholin, two
successful second choices, Were well
backed with smart money, but there
was little support for the remaining

sands at 4 to 2, was SO bad that a
judicial investigation is scheduled for

suspended by the Judges for a series of
unsatisfactory rides, the elimination of
