TOO FAR FOR LADY’S BOY?
W7"HEN acceptances were de- ** dared for the Waikato Hunt , meeting, Lady’s Boy retained his place in both the mile and aquarter and sprint events, but trainer T. Carmont stated that the Members’ Memorial Handicap is the mission of the Ellerslie representative. Since his success in the sprint on the opening day of the recent Ellerslie carnival, Lady’s Boy has accomplished all his work over a middle distance, and he should strip a fit horse in Monday’s engagement. But will Lady’s Boy get a distance of ground? He has raced well up to a mile, although he usually weakens in the latter stages, and to expect him to travel two furlongs farther and in receipt of only 91b from Prodice is asking something big of him.
