Salome

 

"Salome" has raced consistently and has improved over the last twelve months.  She prefers light winds when close hauled but revels in hard running conditions.

She was ninth in her division in the 1968 Hobart Race, second in Division 2 in the Montagu Island Race, 1969, and gained both line and handicap honours in her division in the 1969 Woollahra Cup.  She must definitely be regarded as a possible Division 2 placegetter in this race.
