Racing Notes from the West Worded for War Relief Fund
Sporting notes describe fundraising races to aid the war effort with proceeds supporting patriotic needs. The program features gallopers from local clubs, trainers, and owners backing the event amid talk of curtailment to aid labour shortages, while races at Moorefield and Coonamble draw crowds and spotlight horses like Lady Neith and Loyal Lad. The piece also notes travels of racing figures, race outcomes, and conditions at venues, with general optimism for continued support and attendance.
