CONSISTENCY OF KILMANAGH
| Fow 'chasers have a better record than ■the llaslhigs-trained mare Kilmanagh, who is to contest the Metropolitan Steeplechase at Awapuni on Saturday. In 15 starts over eountry she has had four wins, six seconds, three thirds and a Jifth, this oue in the Grand Xational : Steeplechase. Her record is all the more meritoriOus becau.se of the fact that she is never ridden in her jumping races with wliip or spur and, as she is onlv a six-ycar-old, it is unlikeiy that , the best has yet been secn of her as it : stccplechaser. As a result of her suc- \ eess in the June Steeplechase at Hast- , iugs last Saturday, Kilmanagh has been riscn to 9.9 in the maia jumping event ' at Awapuni, but she still reads leuiently treated in view of hei' past perfonnances.
