BEAULIVRE'S FORM
OWNER A HEAVY LOSER
(By Telesrapli—Press Association—Copyright.) SYDNEY, October 7.
As a result of public rumours and conjecture at the weekend regarding the Beaulivre incident in the Epsom Handicap, the A.J.C. stewards today made further inquiries and questioned the horse's owner, Mr. E. C. Harnett, who assured the stewards that he was a heavy loser and produced betting tickets and vouchers revealing that he had backed Beaulivre to win many thousands straight out and in doubles.
The stewards also heard evidence from the New Zealand jockey, A. E. Ellis, as to Beaulivre's running in the Metropolitan today and report that Ellis declared that Beaulivre could not have won even had the race been a mile. He finished distressed.
