Good Cowra entries noted with no local horses. Orange entries exceed 170 with about 25 per event, while Wellington trained horses are well represented. Restrictions curb crowds as trains and trams run at capacity, with many country carnivals likely abandoned. Yaralla leads Villiers talk, Dewar shows pace in Holiday Handicap, and Bathurst Trotting Club anticipates Boxing Day meets. Desert Gold’s NZ death recalls era, with other Sydney horses in form and potential double bets on Yaralla, The Miller, or Brazandt.

Petrol shortages drive sport shutdowns with clubs closing and night events axed. Racing schedules shrink to daytime only as air raid caution and wartime measures halt swimming, boxing, and gatherings. Miller and Rimweil contend in a handicap interval while Victoria’s Harold Badger survives a fall at Moonee Valley. Henry Mornement also mentioned.
