Turf chronicle notes on racing punishment and studs
An early 19th century style Turf column discusses the Jockey Club reprimand of trainer Percy Peck for ground work abuses, notes on Lord Durkin's horses, and a five shilling fine. It recalls Lon Darker’s high regard in the Club, lists Maltman’s lease and Moonee Valley victory, and surveys Victorian breeding success and English expert notices on horse surgery.
