Hajano will only have to race as well as he did on Tuesday when he finished a close third to Allspice and Hurricane Squire to win the first leg, the Whitestone Handicap, to be run over 3200 m.

should be well within his ca-i pabilities. He had little in; his favour at Addington and: there was much merit in his placing, as he fought, on strongly after forcing the pace for the last 1700 m.
