As was generally anticipated. It looks as if the Auckland Cup would attract a Beld of about 15, and the race should be one of the best in the history of tho event- Antoinette, as expected, has dropped out, while the retirement of WaUnaceru, Monoplane, and Multiply was a foregone conclusion, and Lhe only surprise was the non-acceptance of Labour Day. Ngatlmaru remains in unexpectedly, aud has not yet reached lhe scene of action, but. with the exception of Tiresome, which Is trained at Taka|.i:na, a.id which .s reported to be going ivpll, the otbers are all ai. headquarters. Tiiepday will be tbe last fast day, and the work should be very interesting. The Tc Kr-iti 'Racinic Club have Issued tbe progTKmtne for their annul! meetias, which Is Died for February Rtb.

The few showers that fell last evening made the conditions perfect for training i operations at EUerslie this morning, :ind ! the work on the whole was of a decidedly I juuslde the trestles, the sand, middle grass I md tan were all open, the work registered ! an the various tracks being as follows : — COURSE PHOPEIt.

Glennllan, alone, ran down five furlongs from the new post tn 1.7. Devastation was going much easier than Advocate at the end of six furlongs, run in 1.21 1-3. A similar task was allotted Mowbray, Mnrtel and Peg, the trio finishing in that order at Intervals of about a length in 1.22 i-o. Monoline and Tripoli were companions in a five-furlong sprint, which they covered in 1.7 3-5, the former pleasing most. Scorch, with the assistance of Cloudy Dawn over the Inst six furlongs, galloped seven furlongs in 1.33, the last six furlongs taking 1.20. The pair finished together. The Cup candidates Santa Uosa (H. Watson) and Domino (O'Shea) trotted round to the mile and a-quarter post, and then jumped oil together. Watchchain (Conqnest) joined in at the mile post, and he and Santa Rosa raced away together two or three lengths in front of Domino. The pair clapped on the pace, and when the post was reached Santa Rosa had a length the best of Watchchain, with Domino some lengths away. The pace set was very solid and there was no loafing on the road, the gallop being one of the best recorded at EUerslie.
