Ho far ho has had very little barrier practice. lie is to compete in the five furlongs event on Monduy at Pacroa. The gelding by Raceful from a St. Paul muro in H. Eva's stable is now in active commission, and in the matter of conform ■nation is shaping up nicely. So fur he has only been allotted slow work. Queen Lu, trained by M. Lipsey, is now very solid in condition, and her work is of a consistent nuture. She is to be raced on the Hat at the Taumarunui meeting on the sccond day. Mr. R. llines' Lucullus marc Caviare has foaled a filly foal to Musketoon, thus a lull-sister to Rona Bay. A yearling fullbrother, a very tine colt, has lutcly been handed over to Mr. Colin Anderson, of Auckland, who owned Caviare, consequent upon an nrrungement that he was to have one foal from the mare, who now belongs to the Mountain View stud at To Atoha West. Kingcraft and Miss Brierly are working steadily. The lutter went off slightly after the Avondale meeting, but is now feeding satisfactorily again. Kingcraft is considerably better for his racing efforts and is quite an improved juvenile.
