EAGLE FARM EVENT
• (N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) BRISBANE. Versailles and Bore Head are disputing favouritism for today’s Sir Winston Churchill Stakes at Eagle Farm. Bookmakers were impressed by Versailles’s solid trackwork j during the week. Richetta, the New Zealand mare, and Hyde, winner of last Saturday's James Barnes Plate at Randwick, are sharing second favouritism, five and threequarter points shorter than Versailles and Bore Head. Versailles has scored two wins and two seconds in his last two starts. Richetta. winner of the rich Miller’s Lager Handicap at Randwick at Easter, is nicely weighted with 8-9 in tomorrow s race, which is over a mile and three furlongs. Hyde, by Jekyll, scored a convincing win in the Barnes Plate at Sydney last Saturday.
