A garbled world of horse racing notes cites five furlongs on a candle like track, mentions Sarking chasing a 134 Tarvons mark, and logs divers furlongs for Thettle wren. It notes Tethra linked to Six Fifty in a wind-up gallop and Eximes near a mile on winders, with unclear dates or places.
The note describes a practice shed key, site names, and an evening meeting around 3 o'clock. It references a supervisory role by Seayth and oversight by Sir Har, with material kept in order. Details are garbled and names may be misspelled.
The fragmentary notice references Christi aa Ryan and Behae Tellinquishad Washoe and mentions sacral evitnas and various unclear terms. It lacks coherent actions, dates, or jurisdictions and does not present a clear legal or public notice. Further readable details are required for a proper summary.
