A GREAT YEAR 



the reappearance of Dominion, who came out for the 

 Craven Stakes, the principal item of the Craven 

 Meeting, a race which has fallen to classic winners, 

 Scot Free, the well-named son of MacGregor and 

 Celibacy, Jeddah, Slieve Gallion, Neil Gow, Kenny- 

 more, as also Thurio, winner of the Grand Prix, and 

 Morion of the Gold Cup. Dominion was not much 

 fancied, starting at the long price of ioo to 7. He 

 finished a highly respectable third to Buchan and 

 Bruff Bridge, a length and a half and three-quarters of 

 a length being the verdict. This was by no means 

 altogether discouraging, as there was much room for 

 improvement in the colt. For the rest Royal Welsh, 

 a 2 to 1 chance for the Three-Year-Old Handicap, 

 failed by two heads.
