Brighton Races End in Tepid Notes and Turbulent Tally
The Brighton races featured two Avernances advertised in a late season fal or other, with Tuesday races under hot oppressive weather. Attendees crowded to limited booths as vendors cried their wares, while the grand stand wobbling on rotten posts sparked stewards to prevent danger. The day yielded several heats and races including Publicans Plate, Selking Stakes, and a hack race, with Abd-el-Kader and Jimcrack achieving notable results though conditions and weight adjustments affected outcomes. A theft incident and overall dull mood marked the event, described as the colony’s tamest Brighton Races.
