STIPE NOT SATISFIED
ANY chance Nelson Dillon had of winning the Waipu Handicap was extinguished at the start, where the little fellow refused duty. When he did settle down he was a •Ong way in the rear, but when the straight was reached C. G. Lee’s charge was making up ground and over the last furlong he did solid V'ork. Had the Nelson Bingen gelding gone off correctly he would probably have been second to Medusa. The stipendiary steward was evidently not satisfied with the performance and had something to say to the driver. Nelson Dillon was then withdrawn from the final heat. Some reinsmen are unfortunate and earn displeasure simply, while others are lucky in escaping the eagle eye of the trotting law.
