WAIKATO TROTS.

TO-MORROW'S PROGRAMME. GOOD MARK MEMORIAL FIELD. THE CARD REVIEWED. The Waikato Trotting Club's meeting, to be held to-morrow, promises to provide excellent racing, and coming it does before the Auckland spring fixture, the form displayed will be of more than usual interest. Meetings held at Claudelands are always popular, us Hamilton is within reasonable distance of Auckland and the roads are in excellent order. The Railway Department will run a train, leaving Auckland for Claudeiands to-morrow at 7.45 a.m. and Newmarket at 7.53 a.m., returning leaving Claudelands at 5.50 p.m. Below will be found a brief review of the programme. Introductory Trot. Although there are 16 acceptors for the Introductory Trot, it is not likely more than four will get much support. Waskasu, who showed a rare turn of speed at the Cambridge meeting, is likely to be a warm favourite, because most of those in the race are either an unknown quantity or have little form to recommend them. Autumn Lu has trotted solidly in her work, and another who shapes well is .Nell Volo, a good-looking imported mare, who will be making her first appearance in a race. Kohewah and La Triumph are possibilities. and the only other appearing to be wortii consideration is Mattie Herbilwyn. However, the chances are most money will go on WASKASU NELL VOLO MATTIE HERBILWYN. Frankton Handicap. There are sixteen in the Erankton Handicap, a 3.5 mile and a quarter. Pedlar, a good sort of a maiden, has been working well and is bound to-'be about at the end. Stormy Mack is an improved pacer, and lie has only to go away from the mark right to be in the money, while of the others on the limit Roylette and Taniwha may be the best. Raider, on 12yds, must be given a good chance, in view of his win recently at Wellington, and of the others perhaps Don Juan, although not a good stayer, will go well. Reduced to three, the prospects of the following should appeal, , STORMY MACK PEDLAR RAIDER. Mark Memorial. There will not be a big field in the Mark Memorial, but the race is very open and should provide good betting. Glandore. does not appear to have much chance, but Oliver Thorpe lias been working particularly well and is in the best condition to see out the two miles, i, Brentlight lias raced well in the South and should be at home in the company he meets to-morrow. Carnui worked brilliantly on Wednesday, but he was hunted right out, and the pace will have to be solid to suit him. Direct Morning has done nothing at two miles, but he has always been running on at the end of the mile and a quarter races he has contested. Te Wahia has not shown any form for some time, but First Flight is a brilliant mare and has only to be at her best to be the hardest to dispose of. Peter Pirate is a long way back on 108 yds, and his chance depends upon how the race is run. If the,first mile is' slow hajwill be prominent at the finish, because it will give hiiji a chance to get up with the field without making much effort. 'Ifc as a very open race, and the favourite division may comprise i n A "DXTTTT

' CARNUI BRENTLIGHT—PETER PIRATE BRACKET FIRST FLIGHT. Stewards' Handicap. There are only eight in the 2.59 mile and a quarter, and the race looks fairly good for Homeward on her run aifc the August meeting at Epsom, when she finished third to Pegaway and Realty. Rector, Jersey Thorpe -and Eleawan can all go a fair ten furlongs. Those in demand should include ' HOMEWARD RECTOR JERSEY THORPE. ■ ■ a Claudelands Handicap. The horses in the Claudelands Handicap are all engaged in earlier events and backers will have that form to guide them. They are not a good lot, and good support will probably be accorded to PEDLAR RAIDER DON JUAN". Hamilton Handicap. In view of recent events for trotters backers maj feel chary about betting on the Hamilton Handicap. Mattie Herbil■wyn would be hard to beat if she left the mark right and El Merit is a useful sort. Moko Bells is solid, as also is Parrish Belle, while Carl Mack haa rare speed, and only has to go kindly to be in the money. Likely ones are MOKO -"BELLS PARRISH BELLE MATTIE HERBILWYN— NELSON GIRL BRACKET. President's Handicap. This is a 4.49 two miles, and though Pegaway is conceding up to 72 yards he will be a hot proposition. Nothing else will appeal to backers,' unless they are looking for the next best. Those sharing the money may be PEGAWAY JERSEY THORPE WINSHOW. .. Visitors' Handicap, The fast mile and a quarter has drawn a fine acceptance. Free Logan, Dad's Hope and Oliver Thorpe should go well off the limit, but better supported will be Caroui. Direct Morning, Real Girl, Brentlight and Prince Pedro are all fast at ten furlongs, but the favourites should be BRENTLTGHT—REAL GIRL BRACKET DIRECT MORNING.

The two most open races on the programme at the Waikato meeting tomorrow are the Mark Memorial Handicap and the Visitors' Handicap, and on paper these events should provide keen betting. In the other races betting will probably be confined to two or three horses, but even then the task is to select the right one. Those backers who do not worry about what price a horse is pa3 T ing have every reason to support Stewards' Handicap: Homeward. President's Handicap: Pegaway.
