This coveted cup is presented by the Commander-in-Chief and Officers, China Fleet. Distance is 1% mile and it will be well competed for, though T think the "Cire" string of griffins will again show they are hard to beat. And though Vim, who ran second in the Leger on Saturday, will weigh out with a 2 lb. penalty I think Fairylight, with his 6 lb. penalty, will be the winner.
"The eighth race is also for 1939 Griffins, and here Hindhead will be seen to advantage, and' as a result Of the race be eligible to start in the Champions on Wednesday, The ninth and last race is at 9 furlongs, and here may be seen-competing Ancient Ensign, Busted Straight, Fancylight, Merry Jester, White Parade, and others. On Saturday's running, White Parade' should win, therefore I name him to do so.
