The afternoon's rain storm forc- ed the postponement of last night's card. The card will be raced off this nftemoon. '

Neil Budlong. a strong. smooth pee: owned by Wellington Mao Neiu of Southport and reined by veteran driver Johnny Conroy was an easy winner of the 2.16 paoe, taking all three heats by a comfort- able margin.

Donald Rankin'.s Celia Sharon was equally as impressive in win- ning the three heats of the 2.19 trot. Cyril Smith drove Bar- bara Ann Queen to top honors in the 2.25 Pace, winning .he second and third heats after Bruce's Sister had won the open- ng heat.

The min started falling about he time the first heat left the itarting gate. It grew heavier :- bout the fourth heat and continu- ed raining throughout the remain- der of the card.

The officials considered postpon- ing the race after the sixth heat but decided to continue. Despite the rain and the resulting heavier track the horses continued to race ih good times and provided sever- al thrilling photo finishes. There were about 2,000 fans pruent.

Bruce's Sister. a three year old mare, owned by George Brookins of Kensington and rained by Don Macfleill. paced a brilliant mile to win the first heat of the 2.25 Pace.

She shot into the lead at the three quarter pole after Jay's Hope had set the pace for the first part of the mile. Barbara Ann Queen moved up in the stretch but fin- ished secomi by a nose.

Bruce's Sister set a new mark of 2.13 2-5. She lowered her mark by six seconds and her performance drew the compliments of the an- nouncer and piysiding Judge Dr 1". C. Dougan.

Barbara Ann Queen nosed out Cover -Up and Bruce's Sister to win the second heat. Yankee Joan went away on top followed by Bar- bara Ann Queen who went to top at the three-eighths pole.

Cover Up driver by James Mac- Gregor moved to the front at the 5-8 pole and stayed out front until near the wire. Barbara Ann Queen nosed past Cover Up on the stretch with BrucP's Sister moving up to finish third.

Cyril Smith took Barbara Ann Queen up from third position to win the third and final heat with Bruce's Sister finishing second.

Celia Sharon was an easy winner in the first heat of the 2.19 Trot. She shot out of the pack on the upper turn and came down the stretch under the wire almost three lengths out front. Waymark was second.

She had ii harder time in the; second heat. Bye For Now and Chet Lynn Clever raced with her tn the wire. Bye For Now finish- ed second but was placed third by the Judges for interference in the stretch.

Celia Sharon came up from third position to edge past Chet Lynn Clever at the wire winning the

Neil Budlong lead from wire to wire in winning every heat of the 2.16 Pace. He paced beautifully for Johnny Conroy and at no time did he appear pressed by the rest of the field.

He won the first heat in 2.14 and paced the second heat in 2.14 1-5 although the track was quite wet and looked heavy. The time of his third mile was 2.15.

Miss Dona Mac was I surprize second in the first heat while Col- onel 1-lansford was runner up in the second heat and Puturamic placed a good second in the final mile.

"But I coiild nottbe fit to ride in the races untll mid-October at the earliest. There would be no point in striving to do that because the principal owners for whom I ride have by that time retired their best horses for the year."

Sir Gordon, knighted June 1. 1953. has carried off Britain's champion Jockey title 26 times. His last victory 'as on the Queen's' horse Landau in the Rous memor- ial smkes at Ascot June 18.

He had a series of failure: for 25 years in the English Derby at Epsom Downs before he finally won last year aboard Plnzn.

Richards said he planned to re- fine to the life of a farmer.

Richards, who has won more than 35.800000 for owners. does not mean to forsake the track. He in- tends to concentrate on training and has taken over a stable at Beckhampton, Wiltshire.

It has been written and said a good many times that Dr. F. C. Dougan's announcing goes I 10118 way in the making of a horse race for the fans. Occasionally some- thing happens to make in more mindful of the fun. For example yesterday afternoon during the last heat there was some little trouble with the mike which pre- vented the Doctor from announcing the positions of the horses until they headed into the back stretch the first time around. We'll bet there were more people gazlns ll the stand to see what happened then there were watching the 91'0- cess of the race at that particular .

The Doctor has a remarkable ability for distinguishing horses and The ease with which no calls off new horses in a race is something at which we shall never cease to marvel. Today for example he will be announcing the progress of at least fifty different horses. Some of them will be horse which he has not seen before or seen only a very few times. Yet he'll appear as familiar with those horses as most hock y fans do with the play- ers on the r hockey team at the end of the season.

It has been said that when it comes to knowledge about racing horses and their background Dr. Dougan and Col. D. A. Macxinnon rank in in class away off by them- selves. Be that as it may we'll say (hat racing people owe a lot to both men. They have contributed muchi to the game. .
