Tower Hill Bracelet to Beach Parade

Tower Hill racing club met for its annual event at Tower Hill with a 42-horse field over two days. Mrs. A J Wedgwood remained patroness distributing trophies in the wool shed ballroom to about 180 attendees. Friday's program included pigeon shoots and a concert supper after trophy presentations, while evening dances capped the social portion. Top races included Mist and Celeste, with Breckenridge’s absence noted as a double winner.
