On the latter occasion he was set to give Kelly "lb, and now the latter has to give Scotland 61b. ]In in not without prospects. Onewhetu iS.tll wui tins rare hint yoar with 8.10, but ho has not raced as well ae expected during the last few months. He was placed nt Eginont on WeiV icsday, and it looks as though lie is coining back to form.

Tybalt is a consistent performer, and he was right in the limelight in that event till a few yards off the poet. The distance will not inconvenience him, but lie has nil the weight he ie entitled to. Korero (5.2) failed in this race last year with T.S but going on to Wellington he won the Parliamentary Handicap, of similar distance with 7.11. Ho had not shown much form eince then, till ho was successful at Otaki on Wednesday. He is a proved mudlark. Royal Appellant (.S.l> has previously won over ten furlongs, and wm successful over a mile at the last Great Northern meeting, but hie form since. then has been disappointing. Grateful and Master Cyklon have both lveen awarded 8.0, and of the pair the latter has the beet credentiale. At the recent Wnirarapa meeting he scored over nine, furlongs, beating among others Pukoko, nebham, Big Dook nnd Low enWig, while he was second to Arctic King in the Mcßae Cup, one mile and a quarter, at Eijmont on Wednesday. Knight of Australia, Royal Dnrjee nnd Day Wind each have 7.12. The first-named won the Takapuna Cup nnd the Franklin Cup, but has since disappointed. Royal Dance commenced racing over a middle distance a couple of months ago, his form being eneournginc. He ran second t.> G.iv Talkie in the Ohinemuri Cup with 7.7 nftrr making a good showing for a lons way in the Herriee Memorial Cup at T< Arohn.

However, he ueually goes wel nt Kllerelie, and will have to be con eidrred. Horowhenua (7.8) started in t'li event last season with 8.4, but failed ti get into the money. He put' up a goo< performance when he ran eoeond in th King George Handicap, one mile and i quarter, nt Pukckonc on Wednesday. Hi ie an exceptionally good winter horee and he is nt hie best nenin.

FORM AT HAWERA.

BONNIE RQIXOX'S EFFORT.

FAST CLEAN JUMPER

(Special to "Star. ,, )

WAXGANUI, Thursday. The Australian-bred gelding Bonnie Kollox created a very favourable impression by his showing in the Egmout Steeplechase yesterday. Though obviously in need of a race he jumped in great style and he can be ticked off as a likely winner in the near future. lt will come as no surprise if he wins the Adamson Steeples on Saturday, but in any case he will be worth watching at the Waikato and Great -Northern meetings either over hurdles or the big lenccs. Bonnie Rollox has plenty ot speed and is a remarkably fast, clean jumper. Ho is likely to be one of the most fancied candidates for the Great Northern double

Clarion Call looked a little on the big side when stripped for the hurdles at Hawera yesterday, but he jumped in fine style, and when lie next faces the starter he should be near his best. With 10.11 in the Great Northern Hurdles the Hunting Song gelding is sure to be one of the prime favourites, all going well. Don Enna never ;>nt a foot wrong in the Egmont Steeplechase, and he won well. He was finishing on all right, but the extra distance at Ellcrslie mav provetoo much for him, though he is probably better now than ever previously. Riotous will be a newcomer in the Atlnmson Steeplechase on Saturday at Hawcra that, will probably have to be reckoned with. He looks in great heart, and has been jumping with all his old dasii recently. This gelding is- to contest the cross-country events at Wanganui next month. Riotous won the Wanganui Steeplechase two years ago and ho promises to be very hard to beat in the forthcoming race, as he appears to be back to hia best again. H. W. Johnston did not take Reip.ir to Hawera yesterday, but will probably start him in the Borough Handicap on Saturday. The Greyspear gelding is in great heart and should run out seven furlongs in good style, though his prospect.* would look brighter over a longer journey. Collodion went a good saee for rive furlongs in the seven furlongs open event at Hawera yesterday, but the soft going did not' favour the long-striding son of Colossus, and he was done with at the business end.

Kiiesliind's performance in winning the Tawliiti Handicap yesterday at Hawcra was a truly groat one. Left a chain he did not appear to have any possible chance at the half-mile, but from there the favourite made up his leeway steadily U> finish with a wonderful burst of speed over the last furlong and won going awav. It was generally voted one of the most brilliant finishing efforts seen for years. He is engaged in the Davidson Handicap on Saturday, and is sure to be in strong request. Mr. \V. R. S. Brewer, owner of Runform, says that the Ruapapa gelding has made a good recovery from the injuries received during a thunderstorm last week. Hi- may be given a run at Wanffanui. Hying Chief won the Telegraph Hack Handicap at Hiiwrra yesterday in a style which suggests thiit this three-year-old son of Chief Ruler will make his mark later on. Red Manfred did not begin well in the Flying at Hawern yesterday, and he was galloping fast over the final stages. lie will bo hard to dispose of if started in the Davidson Handicap on Saturday. Roil Manfred has improved a lot in his jumpinsr. and he should win a race over the "stick-." when put to that jiatne.

II Diilieu rode Snorting Song to victory at Otaki yesterday, that race starting nt noon. lie was on the Hawern racecourse

at two o'clock sinwintonding the saddling up of another of his team.
