GRAMPIAN AS HURDLER
. Grampian, who recently won at- long odds on a visit to Otaki, has since been placed under the care of P. McGrath at Riccarton, In his previous racing he was trained by his owner, Mr. E. G. Power, of Southbrook, but now it is intended to try him out as a jumper, a role at which he might well make good. Now seven years old, Grampian has shown ability to stay on. as one might expect from a son of Robespierre and a mare who is half-sister to Arikiwai and Pilliewinkie, and these arc very useful qualities in a hurdler. He may have another run on the flat at Ashburton, but then will be turned to hurdling.
