as he was sent for the New Coventry won by Diadem, 

 whom he was not at all likely to beat! His one other 

 appearance that season was in a field of twenty-one for 

 the Princess Plate. In 1917 he only made a solitary 

 attempt on the flat, unplaced to Trinity Square at 

 Windsor, and in 191 8 the best he did was to finish 

 second to Corydon for a four-year-old Hurdle Handicap 

 at Manchester. He is a good looking colt from whom 

 something may be expected, though it is to be feared 

 that he is disinclined to do his best.

From this son of St. Frusquin and TuUia there is 

 reason to hope much at the time of writing. He is a 

 contemporary of Svindune, but did not run as a two- 

 year-old. As a three in 1917 he showed respectable 

 form when third to Roubaix for the Wood Ditton 

 Stakes, and for the Hastings Plate he also ran distinctly 

 well, second to Argosy. This colt was giving Tudwal 

 7 lb. and beat him a length and a half, but Coq d'Or, 

 Pamfleta, Sunset Glow and Wildwood were behind and 

 much was thought of Argosy at the time. 



As a four-year-old St. Tudwal's occupations were 

 varied. He began with a hurdle race at Sandown in 

 March, followed on by another hurdle handicap at Man- 

 chester, where, however, his owner's Svindune also ran 

 and a declaration to win was made in the latter's favour. 

 I think Svindune ought to have taken the race for
