SPRINT FIELD

Quality In Three-year-old Handicap / (By "The Toff.") THE big sprint at Addington on Saturday is the popular Craven Handicap, to be run over a mile and aquarter. It is a 2.45 class. In a big field, the front-markers usually have the better of the argument. ; Harvest Child is among them, so is Talent, which ran second at Forbury over a .similar distance. King Pointer is a good horse when he is right, but according to Ms Forbury essays he'is not right. Most danger may come from the 24 yards division, from which Concliff will toe a dangerous opponent. [ Kingcraft also is on 24 yards behind. l and it may not be surprising to find Concliff, Kingcraft and Harvest Child fighting out the money. Unfortunately the Champion Three-year-old Handicap has attracted few starters. Ngingongingo and Royal Silk .should finish m the money.

T IBERAL, which led from end to end *-' m the King George Handicap at Forbury, is a plain-looking six-year-old, gelding by Coldstre.am Bells 'from a mare by Wallace L. To make the pace all the way against a strong wind m 4.37 2/5 for the two miles is a pretty useful performance.
