UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR

BALLOON’S TRAGIC FATE I DEPLORABLE TORTURE SCENE I Balloon, whoso end. at Otaki last Saturday was tragic in the extreme, was perhaps one of the best of Gas bag’s disappointing stock to race, comments “Eangatira. ” He had had a full career, starting over 100 times in his four seasons, and had won ten races in all. He had just turned seven years. He was a chestnut gelding by Gasbag from the Sir Frisco mare, Narooma, and he was bred by Mr. W. Kirkland, of Foxton, to whose ownership he had reverted just over 12 months ago. In the early part of his career he was raced by Mr. J. II Hardwick and was trained at Foxton by J. Proctor. He became a very uncertain horse on tho flat, and Mr. Kirkland put him to jumping last season, a department at which he promised to be successful, though he was destined never to win a race over fence*. I His full record was as follows:

I Among Balloon’s best achievements ' was a double win in the Carnarvon | Hack. Cup at Fox ton, the first occal sion, us a three-yeur-old, giving him ! his first success. He also won tho | Rangitikei Cup. the Autumn Handicap at Tauherenikau, and the Masterton . Handicap. His only success last season was in a highweight event at Masterton. Jt is unnecessary to expatiate at large on the unfortunate tragedy thatclosed his career. The deplorable method of his dispatch at Otaki will never be forgotten by those who had tho misfortune to witness it. Instead of a quick death after he had broken a shoulder, he had to undergo fully live minutes or longer of wholly unnecessary torturo. Not only was there unpardonable delay in shooting him, but there was a shocking misdirection of aim in the two shots fired into him, and. as there was apparently no other ammunition. I the horse had to suffer the agony of a lingering death. It was a pitiful scone for any racing public to witness, particularly for that section of it that loves a thoroughbred. It is certainly the Otaki executive’s duty to see that, so lar as is within its power there shall be no recurrence of such a slaughter on its course again.
