PADISHAH NOT GOING TO ENGLAND. ‘(By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. It seems unlikely that the proposed visit of Padishah to England will be arranged. Mr J. A. Hennah, owner of the horse, said a wealthy New Zealander was prepared to take Padishah to England, paying all expenses, provided he was given a half-share in the horse for the trip, the idea being to race him in the Liverpool Grand National. Having thought it out from various angles. Mi- Hennah has decided against it. Had Padishah been younger it would have been worth while. The horse could have been hunted for the winter, while becoming acclimatised, and could then have taken on the Grand National Steeplechase under reasonable conditions.
