Friesland scored a convincing win m the Tonks Stakes at the Egmont Racing Club’s meeting on Saturday. Always well placed, handy to the pacemakers Grateful and Dungarvan, he took charge in the straight, and comfortably fought off One Whetu and Spiral. The latter pair had moved up prominently on the home turn, and they just headed Dungarvan on the post. The winner was well handicapped and had the additional advantage of a 51b. allowance. He was always going very freely, and had to be held hard to keep him from running to the front. Dungarvan had every chance but did not run on nor. did Grateful. One Whetu and Spiral were consistent without having any chance with the winner. Hazoor could not handle the going and was never promirent.
