midway in the track across the back
stretch and he never let up as ho

Goullet full wheel length and Fog

the crowd. but nothing doing in that
line. Every ounce of leg muscle the
champion had was working, and ten
yards from the tape he flashed by
Goullet and won by almost a full

wonderful because he rode the centre
of the track for the whole last lap.
He received an ovation as he rode
around the track after the finish.
