MARTON JOCKEY CLUB

AUTUMN MEETING FIELDS. LIST OF NOMINATIONS. Marking as it docs the close of the autumn racing campaign and the opening of winter racing, the Marton Jockey Club’s meeting on Saturday, April 21, assumes considerable importance. Owners of hurdlers and steeplechasers will be anxious to sec their charges in action, in order to get a “line’’ on the season’s prospects. Racing chibs with winter programmes will also be interested, because through Marton may be obtained an idea of how winter meetings arc going to be patronised by owners and trainers and the racing public. The fields which are promised for this month’s meeting at Marton arc eminently satisfactory, there having been an excellent response on the part of owners. In the Marton Steeplechase there are some newcomers to the lepping game as well as such well-known performers as Aurora Borealis, Copey, Winnagan, Riotous and Callamart. The hurdlers nominated include High Faintin’, Consent, Knollmere and Easterly, to name only a quartette of useful performers over the battens.
