COMMENT ON NEW RECORDS

SYDNEY, April 16. The “Sunday Sun” says that Winooka’s Doncaster win will be long remembered. “Never at any stage,” it says, “were his friends uneasy. Everything went according to plan. This worthy son of a worthy sire humped his great weight of 9.13 to victory in record time, completely justifying his trainer’s expectations and pre-post declaration: ‘Records are made to bo broken, and my horse will do it.’ ” The “Sun” also comments on Eaton Wood’s world’s record in the Hurdles. It remarks: “His time of 3.35 for two miles would have been quite a creditable performance in the Melbourne Cup a few years ago.” THE WILLIAMSTOWN MEETING GREENHORN WINS TRIAL MELBOURNE, April 16.
