Halo 



Halo came early in the history of the colours. This 

 filly, who was to become the dam of Holy Smoke, 

 showed up well in her first season. She was out five 

 times, making what must be considered a highly pro- 

 mising first appearance, third to Game Chick for the 

 Princess Cup at the Newmarket First July. Game 

 Chick won half a dozen races worth ;^932o. Halo was 

 then thrice consecutively successful, taking the Lambton 

 Stakes at Stockton, the Badminton Plate at York and 

 the Sallow Maiden Plate at Gatwick in a field of 

 thirteen ; but she was not equal to beating her opponents 

 in the Snailwell, for here she met the speedy Chacornac, 

 and amongst others Dieudonne, winner of the Middle 

 Park Plate. Next season Halo did not keep up her 

 record, though she secured the Ditch Mile Handicap. 



Pain Bis 



Pain Bis was another of the early ones, a son of 

 Bread Knife and Pansy. He, too, would surely have 

 won races had this been made a main object. He 

 started in the Great Surrey Foal Stakes at Epsom on 

 the day after Ard Patrick's Derby, and then tried his 

 luck in a Biennial at Ascot, which went to Lord 

 Falmouth's invincible filly Quintessence. In 1903 he 

 was beaten a neck by Imperious for the Heath High- 

 Weight Handicap at the Newmarket Craven Meeting,
