THE GREAT YEAR 



This was not the only notable win at the meeting. 

 He had been sent for the Coronation Cup, which has 

 such a brilliant list of winners — Zinfandel, Pretty 

 Polly (twice), The White Knight (twice), Sir Martin, 

 Lemberg, Stedfast and Prince Palatine. Both the 

 other starters were well fancied, for though no more 

 than even money could be had about He, Galloper 

 Light was backed at 5 to 2, Dansellon at 3 to 1. It 

 was a very near thing between the couple first named, 

 He defeating the three-year-old by no more than a 

 head, the margin by which, it may be incidentally 

 remarked, Galloper Light had beaten Tangiers — the 

 winner giving 8 lb. — for the Payne Stakes. This 

 was all to the credit of He.
