TE AWAMUTU TRACKS.

FINALS FOR TE RAP A.

TUAHEAHE PLEASES.

The going on the course proper, next to the rails, which was open at Te Awamutu yesterday morning for the Te Rapa finals, was dead. However, in spite of this, several useful efforts were recorded, chief among these being that of Tuaheahe. Other fast work was done on the outside of the course, the flags being about 40 feet out. Pace tasks were carried out on the hurdle, inner grass and inner plough tracks the reverse way round. On the Rails. Arawa Rose (McKenzie) was sent away from the seven-furlong barrier to come home with ease in 1.29. She had the assistance of her full sister, Sweet Rose over the last two furlongs. Namakia (Cameron) was allotted three furlongs, which was accomplished in 37 3-ss. nus filly is in nice order to fulfil her engagements. A useful effort was made by Jonathan (McKenzie), who was dispatched from the seven-furlong post to cover the distance in 1.28, the last half mile taking 50s Although not a runner on the first day he will in all probability take his place on Saturday. Campanero (Goulsbro) and his stable companion, Rex Victor (Cameron) were given practice at Jie barrier, both getting away smartly. CKy were afterwards allotted strong work on the plough. Although he was left rather badly at the beginning of his work with Kanapa (Sharpe) Trishna (P au l) vvas| hitting out pleasingly to complete the five furlongs in 1.3 3-5.

The prospects of Tuaheahe look very bright. Solarium (Lewis) was galloped the. reverse way ontheinner nloueh, placing six furlongs behind m 1.19.
