Piggott, British champion in 1964 and Meadow Court's rider in its last three outings, is still committed to ride Bally Russe, a 100-to-1 shot owned by Noel Murless of Newmarket, Eng- land. But indications are that Murless will scratch his colt during the weekend on the basis of a poor run two weeks ago. One of London's leading book- makers predicts that only nine of tie 23 iiorses stili- entered-in the 1%-mile race, the last of the five British classics, will reach the starting gate. Bally Russe is not included in the list. Paddy Prendergast, Meadow Court's veteran trainer, said in a telephone interview from his home at Curragh, Ireland, Wed- nesday he would know by the weekend whether Piggott would be available. He declined to mame any other riders he has in mind if Bally Russe does run. OWNERS WILL WATCH Meadow Court, .winner of more than £105,00 0($315,000) in five starts this year, will be watched at the Yorkshire track by his co-owners, Calgary pub- lisher Max Bell, Vancouver oil- man Frank McMahon and singer Bing Crosby. They are expected to decide then whether the chestnut colt will run in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in s Handicap? "top condition' and should have: no trouble with the distance, two furlongs more than any race he has run in up to now. Convamore, English - owned runner-up to Meadow Court in the Irish Sweeps Derby June 26, has been made second choice at a distant 8 to 1 with another English colt, Cambridge, third at 12 to 1. ; fine ambassadors, "It's refreshing to hear a guy like him talking to people like us about sport. He certainly de- serves an attentive audience be- cause he has an uncanny knack of hitting things right on the button." Dyson is one of the most in- spiring men in amateur sports in Canada. He's in his third year of a five-year contract when his contract expires. The parks branch estimates the demand for camping facili- ties--which it attributes in part to better roads both in and around the parklands and in part to greater leisure time--is growing at the rate of 15 per cent a year.
