“NUMBER FIVE, PLEASE!”
Yes, that may be the lucky number at Ellerslie on Monday. Look at the number fives to support: Piet, a useful hack. Staghunter, a game youngster. Antrim Boy, a good sort.. Rapier, the Cup favourite. Red Comet, a promising hurdler. Paganelli, a brilliant sprinter. Patodawn, a good filly. And Laughing Prince, a fine colt. At the Waipa meeting last week number thirteen did a trot, winning three races at long odds and returning a 600 per cent profit. Number five for Monday looks distinctly promising. So, when in doubt, ask for number five!
