The Limond—Aspic filly appears to have thrown off the lameness which led to her being spelled, but it remains to be seen whether there will be any recurrence when she enters the serious part of another preparation. All going well lying will probably be given a race at Feilding and taken to Auckland tor the summer meeting at EUerslie. The weather cleared for training operations yesterday after heavy showers overnight, which had made the going on No. 1 gross track fairly soft. Several horses engaged at Marton on Saturday were galloped, while others are to do their final trials on Thursday. Brfme breakfast Authoress (S. Edwards) and Minga (K. Latham) slipped over three furlongs in 30s, finishing on terms, with Minna, on the inner, going very nicely. Tlie Limond-Motley filly is to run in the Mil id en on Saturday if the going is not too soft. Authoress will be a runner in tin- Juvenile Handicap and may show to better advantage than at Wanganui if tlie track m fairly firm.
