were 30ft out from the rails, was open, and most of the fast work was done on this track. Ko. 3 grass was also available, but it was not in much demand. Some first-class efforts were recorded, among them being those of Kiltowyn, King Musk, Kelly, Mata Hari, Baroscope and Marching Song. The Course Proper. The stableiiKites, Merry Lap and On Parade, were the first to work, being sent five furlongs. They ran the first two in 2G l-ss, and the full distance in 1.5 1-5. They finished practically on terms, being kept up to their work throughout. Thespis gave Wee Pat and Kilniuir about three lengths' start over a round, the pair beating him home in 2.18 4-5. They ran the last seven furlongs in 1.40 4-5, and the final half mile

in 56 2-ss. Although beaten Thespis was going easily at the finish. Karangapai ran right away from Hushing at the conclusion of six furlongs, which occupied I.J'J, tlie first three taking 38 l-ss.

Sir Abb and Lord Val, after running their first furlong in 12 3-5s were timed to run half a mile in 50 4-ss. Lord Val was holding Sir. Abb at the finish, l>ut the latter impressed for a novice. After taking 26s to run her first two furlongs, Mountain Breeze got to the end of five furlongs in 1.6 3-5. She was staying on at the finish. Gascelle was not doing his best to run a similar distance.in 1.11 2-5. The maidens, Vera Acre and Temonatekapa were timed to run half a mile in 52 2-ss. the former impressing most. After Breakfast. Kiltowyn, with his stablemate, Tai-Yang to assist him over the first three furlongs, ran the fastest mile that has been run on this track for some time, when the distance the poles were out from the rails is taken into consideration. They ran the first two-furlongs in 23 4-ss, and three in 37 l-ss, Tai-Yang then dropping out. Kiltowyn continued on alone, running the first half ■ mile in 49 3-ss, five in 1.1 4-5, and completed the full distance in 1.42. He carried just on 9.0, and it was a firstclass performance.
