BROWN JACK AS HUNTER
When the result of the Goodwood Cup was cabled early in the month the number of. starters was given as four, and as that great stayer Brown Jack was not included in the three placings speculation arose whether he was the fourth runner. The latest exchanges from England, however, reveal that he was not to be paraded for the Goodwood Cup, which he won in 1030 and in which he finished second the next three years.
After the Ascot Meeting in June intentions were to race the versatile old liorso at Goodwood, but subsequently Sir Harold Wernher revised tiis plans and decided delinitcly to retire his champion from flat racing. Brown Jack was to have been shown at the Feruhie Horse. Show ut Market Harborousb this month, and lie is then to be schooled for hunting. Should lie take to fencing (ho was a hurdler early in his career) he will be hunted durin? the1 winter with the Fcrnhie.
