GAY LAP LAME AGAIN
The fact that Gay Lap had only been I in work a short .time and wai displayin" signs of soreness no doubt accounted for the double-figure dividend returned him! when he won.,.the Waharoii. Handicap at Matamata last Saturday. He was never further back than fourth at any part of the race, and outclassed the field when his rider shook him up.half-way down the running. , Unfortunately this brilliant galloperl again pulled up very lame after the race, and it looks as though his trainer, R. Mateer, will have a difficult'task in keep-' ing him. going throughout the remainder of .the season. The lameness was evidently quite serious, as he was.scratched on Monday for his Rotorua engagement.
