STABLE AND TRACK NOTES.

OFF TO TRENTHAM. True Blood and Princess Star left foi Trentham this afternoon to fulfil engagements at the Wellington winter meeting. SISTER TO HEREMIA. Eva Rose, the full-sister to Heremia, is being hacked about at Matamata. It is stated that she has recovered from the ailment that came against her prior to the last Matamata meeting. BUILT UP IN CONDITION. Richfield, who has been oil' the scene for some time, is to resume work shortly. He is stated to have built up in condition and will bo given a course of road work before he recommences training. DEATH, OF GARZON. Garzon, who for a number of years was trained by C. Morse at Gisborue, is reported to have died there recently. Garzon was twelve years old, and he won several hurdle races and steeplechases in the Gisborue district. PARIS AND TARAMOA. Paris (G. Dempster) and Taramoa (V. Dempster) were sent over a round of the fences at Riccarton on Tuesday morning. Uoth jumped well, though the ground was a trille slippery. Taramoa went into the lead at the last obstacle. Subsequently they ran half a mile in 525. EMERSON LEAVING. Mr. C. Emerson leaves Wellington for Sydney to-day by the Zealandia with Concentrate, Oratorian, Early Cup, Oratorious and Top Rank. Whether he will go on to Melbourne or how long he will remain in Sydney depends very largely on the form the horses reveal at Randwiek. Gold Mag and Michael Angelo leave by the same steamer. BOTH IN NICE ORDER. Sir Charles Clifford's representatives for Trentham, Fast Passage and Rocket, worked together on the outside trial grass at Riccarton on Tuesday morning. Fast Passage jumped oil' from the mile post and picked up Rocket at the six furlongs. The mile was completed in 1.41 3-o. Both look in nice order. BEEN WORKING WELL. Both Little Doubt and Royal Bengal are reported to have been doing good work at New Plymouth since the Great Northern meeting, and they are said to be better than when they raced here. The former is looking really well, and he should have the tracks to suit him at Treutham, for he is a great mudlark. LOOKING EXTRA WELL. According to Riccarton reports Grecian Prince looks to have done particularly well during his holiday. He made great progress when racing this season and his future prospects appear bright. Grecian Prince has been nominated for Australian events, but he is to race at the C.J.C. Grand National meeting. WILL IMPROVE WITH EXPERIENCE. The Treclare gelding Tatyoon is being hacked about the roads and will resume work again shortly. He has had a good spell from the race track and should be all the better for it next season. Though still a maiden, Tatyoon is a promising galloper, from whom better results can be expected as he gains experience.

BEING HACKED ABOUT. Chief Lap and Last Lap are being hacked about the roads at Matamata. Chief Lap has been rather unlucky since he won at Matamata last February, for, after getting over a severe cold, lie met with an accident, which prevented him from racing since. He is a particularly fine stamp of a thoroughbred, and, judging by the manner in which he won in his only start, he should turn out above the average. GOOD JUMPING DISPLAY. At EHerslic yesterday morning Neil gave a brilliant display of jumping over six flights of hurdles. He cleared every fence alike, jumping quickly and cleverly, and the exhibition was one of the best yet given by the Lucullus gelding. Neil has been getting through a lot of solid work under his owner's supervision and his condition will be a bis asset ia hie favour when he begins racing aagin. MR. E. H. CUCKSEY'S TEAM. Flying Prince, owned by Mr. E. H. Cucksey, is running out on his owner's place at Tirau. Mr. Cucksey states that this horse will most likely race as a gelding next season. A rising two-year-old by Diacquenod—Lady Bede is beiug handled preparatory to being put into work, also a rising two-year-old by Hunting Song—Lady Cintra. Mr. Cucksey will train the juveniles himself in the meantime, using the Matamata course occasionally. ADMIRAL DRAKE RESUMES. Admiral Drake, who has not raced since the Dunedin meeting last February, has been put into work again and he is stated to be in excellent condition to commence his preparation for his racing in Sydney in the spring. On his visit to the other side last March Admiral Drake was only beaten by a head by Johnny Jason in the Sydney Cup. His forthcoming engagements include the Metropolitan Handicap at Randwick, the Caulfield Cup and the Melbourne Cup. DOING SOLID PREPARATION. Manawhenua is doing a solid preparation at headquarters and has never looked better than he does at the present time. So far the son of Acre has not been successful beyond one mile and a quarter, but now that lie has a bit of age he should be capable of traversing longer journeys. Manawhenua lacks nothing as far as speed is concerned, and the fact that he line invariably been finishing on at the right end of his races is an indication that he is likely to stay on. If this proves to be correct Manawhenua may win a big handicap during his visit to Australia. TOO HIGH. RACING CONFERENCE LEVIES. A motion was passed at a meeting of the executive of the Franklin Racing Club that the representative's attending the New Zealand Racing Conference be advised that the club was of the opinion that the levies made by the Conference should be reduced, and that the delegates be asked to support any remit tending toward a reduction of the levies.
