O’Neil, and 8 to 1 against any other. Shane O’Neil with K.C. and No Name 
got away together, and ran in close company for two-thirds of the distance, when 
K.C. dropped back beaten, and No Name took his place, while Kathleen consider¬ 
ably improved her position, but had no chance whatever of catching Shane O’Neil, 
who came sailing away from the bend into the straight, and won with ease by 
ten lengths ; Kathleen was a bad third. Nellie fourth, Chance fifth, and The 
G-eneral last.

Betting: 5 to 2 each against Chopette and Hawkwood, 7 to 2 against Rocket, 
6 to 1 against Queen’s Birthday, and 10 to 1 against any other. Rocket for a 
short distance showed the way to Hawkwood and Chopette, but prior to reaching 
the water he was pulled back into fourth place, and so they came on past the 
Stand, but Hawkwood came to grief shortly afterwards, and Rocket again assumed 
the lead and, making all the remainder of the running, won easily by five lengths. 
Bovril was third, and Holmwood, the only other that passed the post, was fourth.
