DEFAULTER PRAISED
GOOD JUDGMENT BY ELLIS United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received April 17, 6.30 p.m.) SYDNEY, April 17. "The Sydney Morning Herald” says: Defaulter showed his real class when he won the A.J.C. Plate on Saturday. Many thought Spear Chief and Mosaic delayed their runs against Defaulter for too long, but they overlooked the magnifleant judgment displayed by Ellis. The time was the second slowest ever taken for the race. Defaulter will return to New Zealand, recognised as one of the best three-year-olds ever bred there.
J. H. Abbs headed the list of winning trainers for the meeting with £7070, for which Mosaic was mostly responsible. H. D. Greenwood won £2075.
