Countryman is nicely placed on 3<jyds, but will reouire to be on liis best behaviour to finish in front of Golden Devon and Prince Lyons. Fifteen, useful trotters are engaged in the New Brighton Trotting Handicap. and although Escapade is conceding 10S yards to those in front of her, she is such a good reliable mare that the task does not look beyond her abilitv.
