TRACK GALLOPS.

TE AWAMUTU TRIALS. RAIN INTERFERES WITH WORK. There was very little doing in the way of fast work at Te Awamutu yesterday morning. What was done was carried out under very difficult conditions, all tracks being for the most part under water. The only horses to gallop were the Cainbridge candidates, for which the hurdle track, the reverse way, and the course proper, on the extreme outside, were available.

On the hurdle track Cylarros (Home) and Karohia (Goulsbro) were sent over four furlongs, taking 535. They were on terms at the finish. Cylarros was not ac home in the heavy going. Karohia worked, well.

On the outside of the course proper, Solomon (Home) came home from the five-furlong post in 1.10. He was hitting out nicely. Astarth and Coronis were at the tracks, but were not worked. It has not yet been decided which races these horses will contest.

Doing pace work were Lady Ruler, Jonathan, Galilee, Torch, Namakia, Gallio, Stretto, Superior Guard, Eager Rose, Arawa Rose, Musquil and Loombination. Fast Acre and Tuaheahe were worked on the sand road.

POVERTY BAY HOUSES. SPRING PREPARATION. (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.) GISBORNE, Thursday. In preparation for the Poverty Bay Turf Club's spring meeting, training at the Park is in full swing. Kahunoke and Summer Hill did some sound work over two rounds on the hurdle track this morning. The latter, | who has not been on the track for some time, is gradually coming to form. Good Hunting and Alby were not out for time while running seven furlongs in 1.33. Both look ready to show their best form. Minnow defeated. Tawhiorangi comfortably over four furlongs in 50 2-ss. Both horses are Scurry candidates. Quake and Mahala covered six furlongs in 1.21. Mahala is a full-sister to Mata Hari. Tino Atua's colt, by Hunting Song, was set a light task, as was Kuinette. lhe latter is a three-year-old filly and a fullsister to Grand Sport. Nothing strenubus was required of Black Thread, by Mimetic from Slipstitch. A Cockpit filly and an Ace filly, who are in the euriy stages of their education, did light work. Both are members of W. Goscomb's tca.n. De Friend and Sunny Sky did five furlongs pleasingly in 1.5 2-5. Golden Blonde was given useful work. Victor Colima and Small Boy ran seven furlongs, the last five comfortably in 1.8. Fossicker, a fullbrother to Pokiha, and a likely sort, traversed four furlongs in 525. Lordly Knight, with Joe Louis as a companion, completed four furlongs in 51 3-ss. Lordly Knight was having his first gallop in company for some time. His companion was a brown tliree-year-old gelding by Psychology from Lady Kilham. Pennycomequick and Gay Hunter sprinted down the straight twice. Both look in nice order. Quaint finished nicely at the end of a mile on the outside of the course proper in 1.48. John Charles was staying on better than The Bruslier at the eud of six furlongs in 1.19 4-5. Ace Willonyx worked on the hurdle track, his task a light one. Acranna was given similar work. Vulpes sprinted from the sevenfurlong post to the three-furlong peg in 51s.
