Headlight Easily Victor in the Champions: No Competitor Able to Extend Him Tsingtao, Sept. 27.
Noel Davis returaed on Sunday from Chinwangtao, Headlight captored another cham. pions' race at the local track yesterday afternoon, dashing to a splendid victory in the mile and a quarter Autumn champions' race, 'The result was largely expected as no other' pony brought here has ever been able to match the pace set by General Sutton's fyer. It was expected, however, that R'u Stable's Dalny and Br. J. B. Lok's Attachment, ridden by the owner, would be able to give Headlight 'a close tussle. Dalny did make things interesting, but was a length and half behind at the finish. It looked as if Headlight could have widened the gap had he been urged by his rider, Mr. Sokoloff. The latter, who has been the kindling sensation of the meeting, was content to win by such a margin. The time was fast, being less than a second under the course record.
Veteroek, also ridden by Mr. Sokoloff, had the distinction of breaking the only record of the meeting, sprinting the half-mile in 57-3/5 seconds, two-fifths of cond under Purple Lightning' mark.
