' The Introductory Handicap, which opens - the day's programme. Is for maiden trotters, and Battery Bell's track form should make him favourite, with We Why and Bellsou also well backed. The Mangere Handicap, for saddle horses, over one mile and a Quarter, Is the next heat to Interest the public. In this there are a few speedy pacers, and it is no easy task to pick the winner. Johnny » Golddust (with R. Woods In the aaddlei is sure to be one of the fancied ones, while Peter Volo and iHypo should get a lot or support. In the Onehnnga Handicap, of two miles, Goldman, on the limit, may be favourite, , with Red Star following closely. The Jellicoe Handicap, of lOOOsovs., two V miles, for horses capable of stepping the I distance In 4.36 or better, should prove very Interesting, for tlie Issue is very open. Dean Dillon, Pitaroa, and Man-o'-war are a *: trio that should be well supported, f The Stewards' Handicap follows the big c race. Of the 16 acceptors the following .. three should find favour with backers: Gold sound. Anselm. and Pani. r In the Campbell Handicap, of 350sovg„ .1 Al Mack has been given every opportunity. . and may be favourite, but Pyramus and Hint are a hard pair to head off. t The Tramway Handicap, of one mile and h a-quarter. should see Nelson Derby favourg lte. with Lady Dunmore and Delaven Bill also well fancied. The final flutter on the nrogramme is the I- Electric Handicap, of one mile, and :Mulj waTee and -Mint Boy will get a lot of Dack- . Ins. and General will also have a good II following. ~ The fast track on Wednesday and Thurs- '- I day wag made good use of by the owners t- and trainers, and some Interesting work - I was accomplished. j Haricot (Fisher). Pyramus (Rae), and y Stormy Voyage (Glasheen) worked in coml- pany over two miles. The first-named n two pleased the onlookers, but Stormy Voyage went very badly all through. '' Nlta Bell (Julian) and Prize Pearl (Cung nlngham) were speeded up over one and a- -- quarter miles, the former defeating her if oppoueut by hnif-a-dozen lengths. This mare Is very well at present, and has eviie \ dently shaken off the soreness wbich r troubled her a few days ago. „ First Carbine (Kelsey) was given useful work In the hopples. '4 Woodvale (Shaw) worked a fast mlln In [8 saddle. The Wlldwood. Jr. gelding peril formed well, and it is a pity he Is not , reliable. s Kewpie fMcKendrlck) and Dick Dillon ) (Phipps) were companions over a two-mile j. journey. The performance of the former . was of a very ordinary nature, while Dick Dillon shaped well, and should win a race shortly. Nipper looks ns big as a prize bull, and a was worked a strong mile. in I Pitaroa (Shaw) was stepped cut over two miles, which lourney he covered in really t, good time, and his prospect In the big is race to-morrow looks bright. _ Overrate (McKendrlck) was sent over a ' couole of miles. He was stopping a little '<x over the concluding stages of the Journey, is and will not beat his best for another , c month. Master Basil was worked over a mile " and a-ouarter in harness. As usual this n- 6tylisli-looklng gelding shaped well for a !+_ wee while, but had enough long before the , finish. ;a Bon Bon (Woods) and Golden Park (Cnne- nlngham) trotted oyer a mile and a-hall s_ together, both doing their work well in Glasheen rode Peter Volo twelve furlonns. hut did not ask the cream gelding tc n- do his best. of Battery Bell (Orange) was worked serera: . rounds at a sound pace, doing his work '•" well. Id Brendo (Orange) and Great Britain (Shaw he were companions in a flutter over elghl ei jj furlonc-s. both rtjnlr; well. McNanghton rode Puduma a mile in fail at time. Proud, in the same stable war he given useful work with the ge.ir on. ln H. Kinnlmont stepped his latest addition De Why. over 12 furlongs. He did no apoe:>r to Mt out as freely as usual. ri- Lady Evelyn (Rae) was given usefti he work with the straps on. This mare look on a "bade on 'the hisi- side. Globe Derby was given slow long worl 13- without the gear. De Why and King Capitalist have beei handed over to H. Kinnlmont to trail durine the ahsence of W. Osborne, who I in the hospital, due to a fall from a two yenr-old pacer. Johnny Golddust (Woods), in saddle ye, ! pleased the onlookers while stcpolii".he ro "t>le of clr-iilts.
