VAALSSTAR HPEARFORD MIDLAND. " OVER COUNTRY. Biform would only need to be sound to be hard to dispose of in the Bay of Plenty Steeplechase. Liicidun ha* had it race recently and ahotild be improved, while London, after hU second to John Chin-leu in the Oreen Lane Steeplechase iiiid his surt-e** in the Tiimaki steeplechase at the Great Northern meeting, Ik mire to have mipport. Mahala whs ewond in the latter event. Count Rouseilion and Chikara are also engaged in the hurdle* later in the day, but if darted here they arc possibilities. Rebel King wan nucceasful in the Farmers' Steeplechase at the Waikato meeting on Labour Day and is a possibility. The public may incline most to LONDON BIFORM. CHIEF FLAT EVENT. King Rey would only need to have gone on tho right way eince the Great Northern meeting to have a chance in the Opotiki Handicap, the chief flat event "f the day. Glold Vaals disappointed at that fixture, as did Gay Heme, but the latter haa the conditions to her liking now. Dβ Friend galloped well at Te Kapa y M terday and in evidently returning to form, but .Tack Tar, after hie tlilnls in the Cornwnll nnri York Hnndi7 P i* h " recenl Ellerelie fixture, fhonid take a lot of beating, .lavola won well at Avondnle. and n<. it does not take much to .jet him to hw b«.t.

Besiege itn<l Marie's Acre are engaged in the Farewell Handicap as well a* thi« race, but if started here they will have to be resperted. The former was in the money at KUewlie, and Marie's Acre

looks as though he is nearing hie best again. l> , Friend i* engaged in the Opotiki Handicap earlier in the day. but he can go a good mile. Eastern Heir is aleo capable of running well over the same distance. A preference may be shown for BESIEGE BLACK MI'SK MARIE'S ACRE. THE HURDLES.

Black Thread was second in the Members' Handicap at Ellerslie recently with 10.5, so is not out of it with 31b more. Gay Seton won that event and should again'show up. Valimeen has scored twice on end and should set a «olid paep.
