From the top of the till it was merely a question of wbat would be second and third.

Khaled, ridden right out to the bitter end, was next best. Gulf Stream, not so nard ridden at the finish, was pipped lor third place bv Radiotherapy, with Edward Tudor fifth. Luck Racing iuok thus gave Weston another big winner. Had Gordon Richards been available tor Khaled, Bobby Jones would have been on Happv Knight. Truly It is Weston's lucky year.

Happy Knight, half-brother to Happy Landing, so narrowly beaten in Ocean Derby, ran only once last year- Only an oversight prevented him being lafcen out of the Derby, because his owner thought be might not act on the Epsom course.

Charlton went out needing two points from their two remaining games Level on points with Birmingham and Villa they had a match in hand of both, and have a better goal average Beating MUlwall Villa go to the head of the table, but have now completed their programme and everything depends on the Charlton v. Wolves and Luton Birmingham games on Saturday. Charlton never looked likely to win. The same three men who beat them at Carter and It again, and each scored a Dully notched Char Position now is that consolation point, both Charlton and Birmingham must win on Saturday lor either of them to top the League.
