Town Survey was backrd down lo a short priee last Saturday due to ihe fact that hc had schooied hriliiantly at To Hapa. He w as always in* a handy position nnd had cvcry chance, but his i'encing was pateh.v. W'iien he put in a run and threatcned to give trouble hc came to gricf at the second to last fenre. Town Survey would cerlainly heneflt by thc run and has only to jnmp better at Hawera to take a power of heating in the Hack and Hiuiters' Hurdles.
