FORM AT NATIONAL MEETING
Sir, —Can you explain why no protest was made following the wins of Findon and Wane on the final day of the Canterbury Jockey Club’s meeting, when both horses ran unplaced and were apparently outclassed at their previous starts, In the absence of any protest, are there no means by which punters, scrupulously following the form displayed at the meeting, can have their interests protected?— Yours, etc., DECEIVED. August 17, 1947. [This letter was referred to the secretary of the Canterbury Jockey Club (Mr F. T. H. Bell), who said that the fact that the stipendiary stewards held no inquiry indicated that they were satisfied with the running of the horses mentioned.]
