There are several horses entered who seem to have great chances, making the race as difficult as a problem in Euclid—but my selection will most certainly be "there, or thereabouts," which is a comforting, if somewhat vague reflection.
Yours truly, LADY GAY.
Duke of York Stakes Selection.
The muse is dull!—the day is dead!
And vain is all endeavour
To light afresh the poet's spark—
I can't find a rhyme for the winner,
Iddesleigh,
P.S.—Really it's most thoughtless of owners to harass one with such names!
