There Are Only Two In It

THE weight-for-age race at Awapuni is decided on the second day of the meeting. The final payment left m eleven horses, but one or two of them have been left m by oversight. That's very plain. Down to bedrock, only two runners appear to have a chance of collecting the big end of the* stake — Gascony and Reremoana.' Prior to Woodville the race appeared at the mercy of Reremoana, but last week's running showed that Gascony is as brilliant as ever he .was. 7 '7 " The race calls for penalties and- allowances, but so far as Gascony an.d Reremoana are concerned they come m at weight-for-age, the race that Gascony won last week being hot big enough to warrant a penalty. 7 Reremoana will thus be giving Gascony one pound and it i$ very • doubtful if he can successfully do so.
