GREAT NORTHERN DOUBLE FANCY
Already a strong pre-post favourite for the G-reat Northern Hurdles and Steeplechase double, the accomplished jumper Brookby Song is likely -to firm still further '-'■in popularity after his essav over the Ellerslie country with five other 'chasers on Saturday morning (states the Auckland Star). The writer continued: ^'Whereas the Hunting Song gelding, ridden by his usual jockey, Jack C-liaplin, gave a well-nigh perfect display of jumping, one of his most serious rivals, the South Islander Page's Raid, gave an unimpressive exhibition. The Dozer also went well, while among the hurdlers the southerner • Prize Ring and the Takaninitrained Spirillum were seen in very ' f avourabl'e light. ' }
