Horses and sulkies were in a tangled mass for some minutes before they were separated. In the Manukau Handicap Excel broke, and swerved, and Silk Lady hit the sulky. Excell’s driver, A. J. Juiiau, was temporarily thrown out of the sulky and temporarily dazed, and the other driver, C. M. Morrison was caught by the foot and dragged about 100 yards. An inquiry was held, the conclusion being that the mishap was accidental.
