AUCKLAND RACING CLUB SUMMER MEETING.

last night general entries in connection ritb the Auckland Racing Club Summer Meeting fell clue. They total 324. The ttitade entries include Tally Ho, Conqueror, Altair, Chasseur, Waiuku and Muscatel. Both Blarney and Tire are missing from |c list, so it looks ominous so far as filling their Auckland Cup engagement is (Mcerned. THE AUCKLAND CUP.

I With regard to the Auckland Cup, the ie_t and final payment is not due until fe day of decision of the race. Waiuku, lk top weight, lias not yet put in an appearance, but he is clue here one day next week. He continue.o to be in great avoir with both his party, and the public, too. Nestor is coming on well, and his jrosress in training up to the day of faision of the race will be keenly watched. Daystaris also doing as well as could be feiied, but the hard ground is against liia, and so far as Castor's son is con- || cerned plenty of rain is required for one of H_is "poor feet." After Coronet's gallop ■of Thursday morning he must have ill good outside chance, aud I Siball be quite prepared to hear o! Mm being supported before the day; in fact, there has been quiet nibbles at him during the last two days, and yesterday a ragerof 200 to 10 was written to a Christtl_tir.li turfite. The favourite St. Paul H looks well, and is training on as well as Slis many admirers could wish. Both |i Mares and Panoply show to advantage ■it the long tasks that have been apHprtioned them, and if they fail-it will not IpK.or the want of condition. McManemin Sks both in great form. I still think that ■per St. Paul or Waiuku will account for llßerace, but my preference is for the first Jimed.
