Major's grey Marmion 10st ib.
A fine field of thirteen ponies, out of nineteen entrants, came out for the Maloo Plate, three of the best ponies from one stable. But though the tipsters spotted some good ones in the crowd, they failed to hit the mark. Rhino, ridden by his sporting owner, landed the rhino for him very handsomely.
The start was arranged after some trouble, and as the shortness of the distance made it necessary to lose no time which might be made up afterwards, the race was a rattling good burat, Rhino led from the first, Kabidonokka and Cumyo Glan disputing the place with him. The former soon fell off, and Sauce and Little Billee put man appearance. With these, the lo and Cumro Glan, the race was made rou the corner, and as they entered the straight became a question whether Little Bilee would not, get the honours with which he had very generally been credited in advance. Hthino kept up to him on the straight however, and won comfortably by a half length. Sauce a bad third and Cumro Glan fourth. Time 60} sec.
