other around for a lap and n half
With Ryan holding Spears IN on the
pole Goullet stalled until the final
twelfth was reached. Starting his
final effort on the last turn, he had
just enough speed to hold Spears
safe.
Clark's victory in the two-mile
handicap was brilliant, but there was
evidence of a big train that the riders
called the "Oriental Limited" six
Australians making up the combina-
ton. To the naked eye it appeared
as though Spears, Grenda, Clark.
Mcnamara, Goullet and Paddy Hehir
made up the train. Spears carried
the field of backmarkers up to with
in few yards of the limit bunch on
the first mile. Then Grenda took up
the burden and carried the train
around and into the lead. On the
next lap, George Cameron, the engi-
neer of another train, carried
bunch of wooden coaches" around
the "Oriental" and led for two laps.
Two laps from the finish. Grenda took
the "Orientaf around to the front
again and the Cameron train was
wrecked, the old wooden Coaches
being unable to withstand the i'm
pact of speed displayed by the
Oriental" At the bell Grenda was
leading. when Mcnamara made his
bid and got around Clark who was
in second position. Jackie backed out
and went around on the baekstretch
and won by five lengths. Grenda
finished second, with Mcnamara
third, Gordon Walker was fourth
and Goullet finished fifth, the "Ori-
entail" taking first second, third and
fifth money.
Amateur Champion Donald McDou-
gall rode a remarkable race in the
half-mile amateur handicap and wop
after he appeared to be hopelessly
beaten. On the backstretch the
champion was sewed in q field of
fourteen riders, but by a high ride
all the way. in which his elbows
rubbed the top of the fence, he Won
by a foot from Tommy Smith, who
was second, and John Brennan, who
took third place.
The champion was beaten by
Ernest Ohrt and Walter Schlee, the
latest sensation of the amateur di-
vision, in the three mile open. Nc
Dougall finished third. Ohrt led for
the final lap and carried the field at
such speed McDougall could not get
around.
The match between Goullet and
Frank Cavanagh resulted in an easy
victory for Cavanagh. who took the
match in straight heats without being
extended to any extent Goullet was
plainly off form and Cavanagh said
before the race that he was not feel
ing right. Cavanagh might have
been bad, but Goullet was worse.
Both heats were ridden in the COM
paratively fast time of IL 2-5 seconds
for the final eighths. The sum-
