S.A.J.C. Profit as Queensland Turf Club Meets Impress
The Queensland Turf Crove enjoyed a fine October day with 11255 pounds totalisator turnover, up 825 on last year. Jemedah won the Flying Handicap by a neck, Lordacre edged Sheila R. for the sprint, and Bronze Maid led the October Handicap before Ladur Girl, Glint Lad, and Cairn Wallace contested a thrilling finish. Cosmos won the Derby with Shacko second, Russian Princess triumphed in the Novice, and Master Warken claimed the Queensland Guineas in a fast 1:40 mile. Cosmos emerged as a strong staying hope for Adelaide partners and was re-sold after initial sale attempts.

Cosmos Second to outsider in Spring Handicap at Caulfield
The draft recounts Cosmos losing a tight Spring Handicap effort as he failed to lead from start due to a loose rein, finishing second to Bob Ottawa after a tangled early stage. Trainer J Patterson plans a Melbourne Derby and possibly a Melbourne Cup bid if decisions allow. Other races see Gileen, Cock of the Heath, and Bir Swee in a close welter finish, while two-year-olds highlight St Speed’s dominance over Morphettville Plate winners Stagegirl and Isle of Arran in late strides. The amended list of racing dates under the Federal scheme reduces outside metropolitan racing by 25 percent with limited days allotted to clubs nationwide.
