ALL THE WAY.

AN EASY WIN. FAVOURITE BREAKS. GREAT CHUM FINISHES ON. GOOD RACE FOR THIRD PLACE. Our War had practically an all-the-way win in the Waikato Handicap, the chief event of the day, as he took command from Sandusky when the latter brake after going two furlongs, and stayed there. Although Our War won comfortably from Kewpie'e King, the latter covered a lot of extra prround, and may have won if he had been more favourably placed. Great Chum was not prominent till the- last halfmile, but he finished on well to just cut Sir Frank out of third place. The each-wav favourite Sandusky broke early, but after again taking up a prominent position half a mile from home lie again left his feet and dropped out of the race. Passing tlife stands Our War was attended by Hearsay, Musketeer, Policy and (Jlorietta. When they came round ajrain Policy had run

up second to Our War, just ahead of Musketeer. Kewpie's King (wide out), Sir FraVik and Our Peggy. Kewpie's King wak on the out side of Policy in third position running towards " the . straight, but in the run home Our War went on to score by two lengths from Kewpie's King, with Great ' Chum a _ head away third. Sir Frank was fourth, with Our Peggv right up and Glorietta next. The winner was at pood double figures. Debut as Trotter. Having his first race for nearly three years and his first as a trotter, Iron Man, who was turned out in «reat condition, effected a surprise in tlie Introductory Handicap, returning over two score on the win machine and double figures for a place. He was handy earl>' and was never further back than third over the last round, takincommand in the straight to win comfortably. Worthy Worker established & big lead early, being about ten lengths clear at one part of the race, but he had to he content with second place. Canadian came home well in fourth place, half a length behind Frontier Bo\, who made up a lot of ground in the last round. Worthy Worker was soon in command and after going a round was followed by Barney Bingen, Iron Man and Llanvabon, who broke and dropped right out. The order wa s the same along the back except that Braemar moved up third and Singing Bird was also breaking. Worthv Worker led into the straight from Iron Man with Shirley's Pal and Canadian next and Frontier Boy moving up. Half a furlong from home Iron Man beaded Worthy Worker and beat him bv half a length, with Frontier Bov a length away, half a length in' front "of Canadian. Then came Glen and Big Kauri. Won Easily. Lynn Pev confirmed the very food impression he created in hip races (it Auckland by easily accounting for the Eureka Handicap. He was handv to the leaders over the last round* and ran past them turning for home to win easily. Peter Smith did not commence as smartly as expected, but he finished with a nice burst of speed to cut Marcus flown in the last half furlong. Marcus has every chance and was within a length of the leader. Resistance. over the last half mile, but was not good enough. Passing the stands, Resistance was followed by Lynn Rev, Marcus Kewpies Bingen, Tumble 'and Wall Street. Along the back Resistance was a length ahead of Marcus with Lvnn Key going easily, and Tumble next, while Peter Smith was moving up. The three leaders were bunched at the home turn, but Lynn Rey quickly ran to the front and went on to beat Peter Smith by three-quarters of a length with Marcus half a length further back Then Bin C en nCe ' Tlmib,e and Kewpie's detailed results: — INTRODUCTORY HANDICAP of ft3n One mile and a half.
