On May 25 Mr Henrys will have completed 46 years as the Canterbury Jockey Club’s weight adjustor. He is, in fact, the only handicapper the club has had, for, before his appointment. a committee of three stewards did the handicapping. A few years ago he made a trip to England, but except for that period of absence, he has never missed seeing a day’s racing by the Canterbury Jockey Club since he was appointed the club’s handicapper.
