HEADS LIST

Trainer Giesler Most Successful

With the racing season dying ■ fast there is no chance of the most successful trainer of the season . being dislodged from his position. AN top of the list' this season is the "Wingatui mentor, Charlie Giesler, who "lias succeeded m bringing home the bacon on no t

fewer than 36 occasions. By no means a young man, nor yet an old one, Giesler has had ■ great; s u'c cess this season with his team, but to ' get- that successhe has not hesi-. tated toY travel away from, his own

part of the earth.

! Horses m the care of the Wingatui trainer won all manner; of races—hunters' events/maidens, big sprints. and principal flat handicaps: ; At Kurow, last October, Giesler won five out of the §ix galloping events, and m the sixth, a steeplechase, he did not have a runner. JDuring the season Allan Cambridge was the principal patron of the stable but he has now gone out of the game —not permanently we hope. a Second on the list is Fred Ellis with 25% successes, while Frank Higgo.tt and Sam Jamieson are third with 25 each. ,-. . ■-,':''■■ . *
