WILL BE GOOD

Lindbergh Showing, Improvement (By "The Toff") Backed down to a short prio», Lindbergh duly landed the Juven- s . ile Handicap 'at Christchurch by a length and a half. nONALD allowed him to bowl along *'' m third place over the first mile, which the leaders, Choysa and John Noble, compassed m 2!IS 4-5. Lindberg then moved him up to John Noble and Choysa at the far bend. Two furlongs from home John Noble was on the rails with Choysa and Lindbergh on the outside of him. Once m line for home, Lindbergh asserted himself and, taking charge at the distance post, he came on to win by a length. He was inclined to run m at the finish, and Donald had to pull his head round to keep him straight. Choysa and John Noble were placed under a hard drive over the last furlong, Choysa beating John Noble for second money. Choysa went a solid race and John Noble paces as if he will develop into a useful stake winner. Had he been patiently handled, he might have won, for during the middle stages of the contest he was taken over extra ground that cost him much more than he was beaten by.
