BRIGADIER BILL ANNEXES WANGANUI STEEPLECHASE
Century Hurdles to Mister Gamp
PAITONU AND KEDDAR CHIEF FLAT WINNERS
Bleak, though tine weather was the lot of the Wanganui Jockey Club for the first, day of the winter meeting yesterday . and the fixture, from the racing point of view, must he accounted a success, though the favourites right throughout the day were unfortunately chosen. Brigadier Bill followed up his last year’s success in the Wanganui Steeplechase, giving a convincing display that was all but faultless and Mister Gamp had a similarly easy victory in the Century Hurdles. Paitonu was easily first home in the Connolly Handicap., from the little fancied Lady Limond and Keddar beat Limited by a good margin in the sprint. The tote handled £20,776 10s for the seven races, as against £22,503 10s last year.
