FAREWLL FUNCTION
C. C. Devine, G. B. Noble
The hope that Arania and False Step would show their true form at Yonkers Raceway, New York, in May, was expressed by Mr W. E. Desmond, president of the Canterbury Trotting Owners’ and Breeders’ Association, last evening. Mr Desmond was speaking at a function put on by his association to bid farewell to C. C. Devine and G. B. Noble, the respective trainers of False Step and Arania.
Caduceus had put New Zealand in the news at Yonkers last year and False Step and Arania would prove worthy
successors to that champion, said Mr Desmond. Mr Desmond expressed the best wishes of all members of his association to Devine and Noble before presenting them each with a travelling case. Messrs K. Scott and E. Paul also spoke, and the two trainers replied.
