WHEEL AND TRACK NOTES.

ANOTHER FOR SMITH. The Takanini trainer F.' Smith has had the maiden trotter Waskasu placed in his stable. Waekasu has a fair turn of speed, and only requires to become a little more solid to win a couple of races. Up. to the present, she hae been.,trained by her owner, Mr. J. Sjmkin, at Mangere. .. SOLID ACCEPTANCES. - , .-, ' The acceptances received yesterday foy the Auckland Trotting Club lor the opening day of the winter meeting to be held on Wednesday week, are most satisfactory, and solid fields are assured in all cvente._ In the chief event, the Adams Memorial Cup, ten emart spacers have been paid up for. One pleasing feature-of the acceptances is the list of ten in the Stewards' Trot. Thia'claea of race at recent meetings hajj-not been, an' attract tion, owing to the/same old-half , , dozen lining up each time,' but on "Wednesday week the addition'''of a couple of Southerners in Olson and' Gay Paree, will add interest to the event. '. . THE ADAMS CUP. The Adams Memorial Chip, one of the star attraction's put. on by the. Auckland Trotting Club in the course of a year, will com.e up for decision at the approaching winter meeting, which opens-.on Wednesday week at Epsom. Ten emart pacers have been "paid up for, and no doubt all will hold their, ground and. line tip at the barriers. On form, Ehawah .and Mountain Dell are most likely to be •' the chief fancies. Kewpie's Triumph, up till the last meeting at Epsom, had not been a success at two miles, but he won in good style then. Mountain Dell won at Chrifitchurch last week,- and ie evidently fight back to her best form, while Enawah, who won three races at the CambridgeNorthland fixture, , was never so well in her career. She is exceptionally good on ■a heavy track,-and with the going to suit her she will take,a deal of beating. Direct Morning seems to, have reached .the end of his run of successes,.and Great'Psrrish, though- speedy,' has.;not -raced well e'inee he-won the Auckland Cup.' OPeterwah is hardly .reliable enough- to -be -supported against a field- of-smart spacers. ■ Peter Pirate ie a go_od horse under winter con-: ditions, and if right'on-the day would have to-be taken into account,, as wjll also■ Kewpie's Guy, despite her'failure at the last-meeting. The.mare was not herself, then, and a .much better effort can he expected, from her in th& Adams Cvp. Machine and Jewel-Pointer <Jo' not appeal. • The .earljr fancies are likely 'to be" Enawah,' Kewpie's Guy : and 'Mountain Den/ . ,:■■•■•■•'.■..• • ' ■ ■;;;■., ' ■
