RABBI WELL ADVERTISED

. The two-year-old Synagogue was responsible for 'two brilliant efforts in winning the nursery handicaps oni the first two ;days of the Wellington Meeting, and he is aii' excellent advertisement for his sire, Rabbi, who, like Synagogue, was trained by T". R. George. Rabbi was a good performer over a middle distance, and Synagogue should develop into something more than-a pure sprinter. ■ •

:. The success was Rabbi's first as a sire; but there will be plenty more for him. The only, .other of his progeny yet to' have raced is George's own > youngster Zionist, who had a couple of runs at Trentham in .October. .''.'. . ;.

■' There is a, strong flavour of the Stony-* hurst Stud in Synagogue's pedigree.' His sire and dam (Lady Ruth, by Tractor) both came .from Clanranald mares.. Rabbi is a son. of Rachel, by Kilbroney from_ Eebekah, by Bezonian from Snowstell (a' sister to Fleetfoot and Broadsword),' by Clanranald from Safeguard. Lady Ruth is a daughter of Queen Ruth, by Rokfiby front Pretty Face, by Olanranalcl from Delusive, the dam of Counterfeit, whose daughter; Miss Mimic, produced Copyist, a useful performer this season. ;
