CHEAP HORSE
Hazlett's Judgment Was Sound (From "N.Z. Truth's" Dunedin Rep.) There is probably not a better judge of a jumper anywhere m the country than Lou Ha'zlett, and he knew his onions.when ,he bought Craigmore. THE sale was prompted by a brilliant schooling effort on the part of the Saxby gelding a few mornings before the Wingatui meeting opened, the price being 300 guineas, an x advance of 260 guineas on -whal Con. White gave for him when the late A, B. Armour's horses were sold. Craigmore is a younger half-brother by Saxby to that game little 'chaser, Thistlecrown, and while he is no oilpainting, he is a ball of muscle and a striking example of the virtues of hill .training. ' He made no race of the Trial Hurdles at Wingatui and could have won by half an hour. He never made a blunder and indicated that country would be. ho trouble to him. ••_>■■ First • start, first win, makes him a cheap horse.
