close up. Old Merchant seems to be
in a soft spot. The lads who nurse
the split watches are awfully
sweet on the old boy and advise me
to make it strong. You all know
what that means. Blarney Stone is
fair. Link Boy should trim Tribune

Close fit in the fourth between
Dorius and william Oldt. Personally
fancy the chances of the former
slightly best, but a limb play on
either would be almost sure to con-
meet with the Jack" Topmast and
Stamp are of the improving sort and
will be knocking at the door. Paris
Maid only has to run one of her
good races in order to hurl dirt in
the faces of her opponents from end

enough. Sandy Mac is at his best
now and that last race was no huke.
Master Bill will have his troubles
defeating Docod for the short end
of it. The latter has been working
like a house ahre. Distinction for
