The Dons were soundly beaten with only Reg Luckhurst first past the post. Swedish star Olle Nygren
was his only support with young Trevor Hedge unable to finish in three of his four outings.
Clive Featherby (pictured on the front of the programme) rode to an untroubled maximum with Billy
Bales backing him up soundly with a paid maximum. David Crane was also set for his own paid maximum
but suffered a retirement in his last ride.
