DEFAULTER “ONE OF THE BEST”
Australian Tributes By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. SYDNEY April 17. The “Sydney Morning Herald” saye that Defaulter showed his real class when he won the A.J.C. Plate at Randwick on Saturday. Many thought that Spear Chief and Mosaic delayed their runs against Defaulter for too long, but they overlooked the magnificent judgment displayed by L. J. Ellis. The time was the second slowest ever taken for the race. Defaulter must be recognized as one of the best three-year-olds ever bred in New Zealand. J. H. Abbs headed the list of winning trainers for the A.J.C. meeting with £7070, for which Mosaic was mainly responsible. Mr. H. D. Greenwood won £2075.
