TOPPLED OVER
But Aberfeldy Will Do Better (From. "N.Z. Truth's" Special Auckland Rep.) ; Aberfeldy stripped a much better horse for the Northern. Hurdles than he di.d. for the Century. LJIS people were confident of his ability to win. A fall at the initial fence was probably the last thing expected, but Aberfeldy is not the first to topple out at the initial obstacle m that particular race. • ■ • There was no one to blame but Aberfeldy m connection with the fall, which was extremely unfortunate. However, such a mistake will hardly occur again so early m an important event. . '• Aberfeldy can be expected to loom into the picture from now on. HURDLES HARDER UP NORTH MOT one of the three visitors stood up n m the Northern Hurdles, which all goes to show that it is a different matter clearing the Ellerslie . fences from those to toe negotiated further south.
