SPIRAL GOES WELL.

YEARLINGS FOR W. RAYNER. AIRING EASED UP. ~~~~"" •* i (From Our Own Correspondent.) WANGANUI, Wednesday. Spiral put up a good gallop on Tuesday morning, when, ridden by F. Latham, he ran six furlongs in 1.15 on the course proper. Hβ cut out the first furlong in 11 4-ss, the quarter a tick under 24e, and the half-mile in *Be. He had to face a strong wind in the run home, but finished well. He was wide out, and the son of 1/nnond got through hie task in a manner which suggests that he will give a good account of himself in hie engagements at Te Aroha.

Entail is not going to Te Aroha, but will ran in the eprint event at Bulla, and hie next appearance ie in the Thompson Handicap at Trenfcham. He was given good pace work thie morning.

Collodion, who is engaged at Buile, was Hit half • a mile but, was not asked to make time. ■ <■■&

Missal (F. Latham) and Koura Boa (K. Chote) were associated in a spin over six furlongs. They went very fast over the first half-mile, which they left behind in under 48<i. Mieeal'finished on better than her companion to register 1M for the full distance.

Sanhedrin was given a sprint over half a mile by himself, taking. 525. He is to ran at Bull*. ■

Reipar (F. Latham) sprinted five furlongs, the first quarter being done in 365, and the post reached in 1.2. The Greyspear gelding appears to be muscling up well and improving with every gallop. He is to race at Bulls next week.

Mr. W. H. Johnston's apprentice, R. S. Edwards, had an arm broken when cranking up a car on Tuesday and this promising young rider will miss several engagement in the next few weeks.

Airing struck himself in his fall at Hawera and has been on the eaey list since. The injury is not serious, and the let-up will do him no harm.

W. Rayner will take in hand later on four of Mr. G. M. Currie's youngtrters, including a filly by Posterity—Homage, a colt by Limond. Miss Thespian, a filly by Posterity—Motley, and a rail sister to Scarf Dance (Limond—Veil).
