entries for pakuranga.

SIR RUSSELL TO BE OPERATED ON

To Aroha entries for the Pakuranga Hunt meeting are not so numerous as might .have been expected, those init he Iht being Marble King, Valstrect, Vohmond and Honiton. Although trained at Cambridge St. Warrigal and Thanks aie owned here. . .. Mr. Fu B. Hines, of Mountain View stud, does not often send his horses elsewhere to be trained, but there are exceptions to every rule and lie has sentthe Kill" Lu—All win representative, King Win° over to A. Tinker's stable. As lie had fin easy time as a two-year-okl lie should be all the bettei at three years, as he has been allowed time to develop. If the Weathervanc—Panama lilly 111 trainer J. H.- "Wallace's stable continues to work satisfactorily, and there is every likelihood or her doing so, she will be among the next Avondalo Stakes field. In her sprinting work she is'speedy, but it remains to be seen whether she can stay out live furlongs. The two-vear-old by Chief Kulcr— Penella, sold at the last thoroughbred sales at. Trentham, on account of Messrs. W. TV. and S. L. Dunn, of Premier Park, Waihou, lias been named Puling Pen by his Duuedin owner. His racing career will be of interest to many sportsmen in this district, as he is considered to be one of the best, bred juveniles sent away from this district. Lucky Alice is improving week by week and her appearance denotes that she should bo able to racc well this season. During the winter, she'has furnished nicely and bears a more robust appearance. ' Marble King is an unlikely starter at the Pakuranga meeting, for since returning from Trentham he has been having an easv time in the paddock.' Black Ma ire is standing up to his track work satisfactorily, but has not •been tried out to ascertain whether he still retains his speed. His off-side kuee stili bears an enlarged appearance, but is yielding to treatment. If the Glen Albyn gelding keeps sound lie will be oneof A." Cox's team this month for the Dannevirke-Marton-Wanganui trip. Valkon has been .running out for some time near jSTgarua, but Mr. Harper intends. to put him into, work again shortly. In the last racing season the Yalkyrian gelding was more or less sore, but his extended spell may have righted matters. Master Latour, winner of the last Waipa Plate, when trained by C. E. Mallowes, is in work again,.and was on the tracks this week. He is_ very burly and is in charge of Claude Whale. Sir Eussell is to undergo an operation this week for a throat affection at the hands of Dr. W. C. Ring. The Archiestown representative is more robust tluin ever before, but the operation will delay his racing preparation for at least some weeks'. ■ , ~ Trainer J. H. Wallace has Antique ready to be put into work again. Tin's sou of Tollbridge may worthily take his place this season in handicap company. The tracks were decidedly heavy on Wednesday, but useful work was executed by Black Maire, Indolent. Sandstar fillV, Miss Albyn, Sir Russell, Lucky Alice, Lucullus—Miss Floss gelding and the Weathervanc filly. The latter sprinted fast for a couple of furlongs and is revelling in her work. Voliinond and Honiton are being worked at ' their owners' Waihou property and may be sufficiently-forward to j compete at the Pakuranga. meeting this month. • ' ' * ' ' ■
