NEARLY A JOY PRICE
There was nearly a big surprise in the Beerescourt Hack at Te Rapa on Saturday. A big outsider in Ramblin' Kid vas second into the straight, and he didn't stop as most people thought he would. Rambi'n' Kid was beaten into third place, but had he won the lucky investors who put £l4 on the aged Winterbourne gelding would have been elevated to the seventh heaven. For the Ramblin' Kid was paying a dividend within the vicinity of a hundred and fifty of the brightest and best. As when Darkite won at Addington recently, it would have been enough to buy a certain brand of auto. If—but he didn’t win, and therefore the usual story about the Chinaman and of one who was given the wrong ticket was unnecessary.
