ARE TOO BIG

Awful Fields At Levin

There is* not a mpre : popular meeting m the southern end of the North Island than Levin, but if the club is going to spring on to the crowd fields like those which will be seen on Saturday the fixture will soon lose its popularity. THE Levin course is not made for big 1 fields. It has too many turns and bends. Yet for Saturday's meeting there is.a terrific card. V k - ..:- The : big event is the mile and a-quarter handicap and consequent on his win at Waverley' over the same distarice Ferriden will 'be favorite.! -Tqm Green is to have, the ride. • Paiko has to be considered 7 and this is just the sort of race Blimp can hold his. own m. t ...... However, if there is not: too fast a pace set Fernden should succeed, wit h Paiko as a dan■gerous v one. In a mob, of maidens totalling twenty-seven it will be a real week's work to get the winner. How about Joie de ,Val? Auctioneer and Tunbridge should be able to clean up that collection m the High Weight. If they fail there is a job on the farm ahead, of them. There is a horse called Nightmare m the hack seven and that is what most of the riders will have when the barrier lifts. To get this field away will be a work of art.. If Banbridge and Warfille jump cleanly they should show up. . • y Hunting Boy showed up m the soft stuff at Trentham and that would. give him a chance fn the MakoMako Handicap; Lady Rene and Pythia are two ,with more than average speed. ' The public will not go past Playground m the Lake Handicap and fpr second string they will back Cluny.
