Driving finish exciting There was an exciting finish in the driving contest, in which the course had been made more testing by narrowing the obstacles. The Lilley brothers, who have been long-standing supporters of the harness section at the Canterbury Show, gave an excellent display of controlled, precision driving to finish first and second over-all. Although Fleetwood, driven by J. R. Lilley, had the best score yesterday, the over-all score of Captivation, driven by J. R. Lilley, made him the winner of this new and interesting contest.
