At his only appearance last season he finished second to Sunny Nelson, m the Selma Trot at the Ashburton Racing Clubs meeting on May 5. in the fast time of 4min 31sec from a smin Isec mark. At his first start this season he finished fourth to Right Royal, Implacable and County Clare in the Wakanui Handicap at the Ashburton Trottting Club’s meeting on Boxing Day. Taken to the Geraldine meeting, Lyndale gave nothing else i a chance when he won the first division of the Domain Trot by six lengths from Double Deck. He started in the Winchester Trot on the same day, but unfortunately he took no part in the race as his driver, G. McKendry, thought it was a false start when the field went away. Most opposition tp Lyndale should come from County Clare, which will appreciate the mile and a quarter journey, Double Deck, News Agent, and Royal Pageantry.
