REID'S TEAM OF FOUR [BY TELEGRAPH —OWN CORRESPONDENT] HASTINGS, Friday Tlio trainer 8. J. Reid intends taking n team of four, Nora Grcgor, Ivar, Kathbclla and Brunhild, to the naikalo moo tins next week, leaving on Tuesday. AH are in fair order, hut all. excepting Kathbella, disappointed at their last" starts. Nora Gregor was held in high esteem here prior to the Trentham meeting, her admirers claiming her to be the most brilliant two-vear-old in the Dominion, oven if sho were not the best. Her gallops over short courses were outstanding, so at Trentham at her one start sho carried good support, but was badly beaten. Sho returned looking only a shadow of tho fillv who had left 10 days before. Since then she has freshened up. Ivar also disappointed at Trentham, hut he is growing very fast. When he develops ho inig.it furnish into one of tlie best handicap horses up to a mile in the Dominion. Kathbclla is one of the best hack sprinters in the Dominion and, after running second at Wellington to Density with more weight than sho has been awarded by the Waikato hnndicapper, she may prove the best of Reid's quartette.
