(United Frees Assn—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) Cambridgeshire Stakes 100 to 1 Chance Wins Reed 12 3 p.mLondon, Oct. 26 It is 16 years ’since 100 to 1 chances were first and third in an important handicap, The bookmakers had the time of their lives. Scarcely a backer named the winner, though one lucky man named the two horses in the special tote pool and got £1775 for an outlay of 10s. Pullover was only entered because a brother and a sister had a friendly bet whether Pal o' Mine, which was owned by Sir Edward Tate, or his sister’s Pullover was the best at the weights.
