Wed 29 June | beat Scottish Argonauts | ¾ L | 1.56* | 3.17* | 6.52 |
"Quintin, who meet Isis today in what could well be the effective final, had a great struggle against Scottish Argonauts, who started at 46, to gain an early lead. The Argonauts spurted again and again to hold off Quintin, but Quintin drew level at the mile, and came through to win" [The Times] "Scottish Argonauts led by ½ length at the ¼ mile, ¾ length at the Barrier, ½ length at Fawley and a canvas at the Mile. Quintin gradually closed up, led by ¼ length at the 1 1/8 mile and won a good race." [HRR] | |||||

See photograph. "The best race of the day in the Thames Cup was between Isis and Quintin, with no more than a quarter of a length to choose until the milepost. Strength and fitness then told, and Isis came away to win by what looked a little more than the half length verdict." [The Times] "Both rowed 38 or more all the way. Isis led by 1/3 length at the ¼ mile and the ½ mile and by ¼ length at the ¾ mile. They then spurted and were ½ length ahead at the 1 1/8 mile." [HRR] |
