A very hot sunny day & only a little wind. On the course in the morning seeing about chairs & final
3 arrangements. The meeting was a great success, some really exciting finishes only two favourites won & the
huge crowd behaved well & there were no incidents. M sat with HH, also the Russell Browns, she did very
a well & made about ten pounds. Oleandar won a race, without any effort & Filfie came second in one. After
the races we had about 60 people for a cocktail party at the house, on the veranda & terrace, some stayed on a
long time, quite a good party.
