By
J. J BOYLE
A start for The Clippie in the Canterbury Jockey Club’s South hland Three-Year-Old Championship Stakes seemed likely vesterllav morning Bv then she had shaken off the •oreness in a foreleg that was bothering her after she won the
Inglewood Stakes at Rangiora ( last week. But to compensate for' work missed since the Rangiora ■ race she galloped 1200 m on the I No. 6 grass. Ridden by her part-owner. Rayl Dennis. The Clippie was carrv-1 ing about 73kg when she .sprinted her 1200 m in Imin ; ■22 sec. She quickened readily fori i her last 600 in 39.
Mr Ay Bee, top-weight in to- ■; day’s George Adams Handicap, iI went about his work attractively when sprinted down the straight jon the No. 6 grass. ■| Mr Av Bee’s Wingatui trainer,! I Tone Prendergast, came north j ■ on Saturday and had a longer! trip than he bargained for after i a wheel bearing on his trailer! 1 float gave trouble.
