There was a large attendance and the course was in excellent order. Isabella Pointer was never further hack than fourth in the Hikutaia Handicap when the field settled down, and although she met with slight interference in the straight =he finished attractively to score easily.

Within had too much speed for the opposition in - the Parawai Handicap, and over the last furlong enme right away and went on to win comfortably. Corona Beir ran a fine race, and only weakened over the final half-furlong. Real Red trotted splendidly after losing a lot of ground at. the start, but the -others never threatened danger.

Patiently Driven.
