Dhrt Brothers Defeat the Herders and Questionable Judging

At the Sports Ground the second carnival night drew about 6000 as Dhrt Brothers beat the Herders in a five mile scratch race. Alf Grenda won his fourth straight five mile event, while McBeath edged Spencer for second amid disputed judging. The Big match between Hans and George Horder and Ohrt ended with controversy as Ohrt was crowned winner despite strong Horder margins, spurring calls of resignation from one judge. Osteritter secured his first handicap win in Australia with a sharp finish from the 70 yard mark, and Leech returned to victory in the league’s open mile handicap after a long layoff.
