The Ryle Park meeting was a success
from every point of view. Horsemen
and the general public were well

but the racing each day was excellent
and good things are in store for the
management another year.

most consistent horse doing business In
the "bushes'' this season and surely
look like a high-class horse to go to the

Two men held his arm n two other
