HONOUR AGAIN TO-DAY?
MEETS SYDNEY’S BEST LIMERICK AND THE STAKES SYDNEY, Tuesday. The meeting to-morrow between Limerick, Gothic, and Mollison in the All-Aged Stakes is arousing considerable interest. The merits of Holdfast and Honour, who are to try conclusions in the Champagne Stakes, are also causing equally earnest discussion in racing circles. The All-Aged Stakes, of £3,000, to be run over a mile at weight-for-age, is one of the big events of the Australian Jockey Club’s autumn meeting, and, with many leading performers engaged, and the New Zealand champion Limerick included, the issue of the contest will be awaited with very keen interest. The following is a list of the horses engaged:
Limerick (8.11) won the race last year in 1.395, defeating Gothic (8.12), Greenline (8.5), Vaals (9.1), and Amounis (8.12).
