Beau Repaire, one of the moet pfonnising ymwtt horam in the Dominion, hod a winning tun in the Wellington Racing Club's Handicap. It wjih ,jrwirtly a familyfinish, a* Beau Repaire, wlio ie iby Beau Pere, beat hie •well-performe<l half j brother, Royal Chief, 'by only a head. Lnnt eurly, Beau Repaire moved up into a hn.udy position half n mile from) home, and after following Hiewnurtd, Queen of Song and Glfldyner to the straight, ftniehed eobdly to win narrowly. Koyafl Chief ran a grand' nee, but lout ground a bit when the lcndcn cracked on the pace at the At that etage be was last, but thep unwound a great run on the outaide of the fieWl, Jimt failing to get up. Third went to, Thermidor, who was better placed mont of fclie way than nmual. She «otua)ly took the lead with half a furlong to go when Queen of Song began to fade, but Beau Repaire noon had her meaeure. ■ Qladynev, poeeibly feeling hi* cup effort, ended i*p after' being third to ihe fttraigh't. Oentrepoiee and Dictate were both well placed early, but drifted, while Willie Win never threatened danger. Stay* On Well. Raana had her third win in the Mungaroa Hignweieht. It wan the effort of a etayer, on the Gitiborne-trained Hunting Bong five-year-old was well 'bock at. the ■traight entr'ance and finished solidly to win by a neck from Hunting Momenta, wiho attempted to lead most of the way. Scold was always in the picture, and ttftur looking -to be fading came' again to be a cloee third. Another faet-finiehing run wins credited to Morning Flight, who CHime 'from well back. King's Toast ■howed *peed, but wae all over the course early. It was not mirprimn# that he wae done iM they wheeled for honu*. Hinnll Boy and Good Sun penalised tbemselvee by failing to begin decently. - HHk-prlM* Filly. Millaiment, the highest-priced yearling in her year and eold for IMOgs, had her second win of the (jeanon in the Trial Plate. 'She look* 'well on the way to the beat claw. Military Maid went into the lew after a furlong and ran on well, thoutah ahe had nothing in reserve when Milhunent drew- up to her in the •traight. , Areas, third, did little more than' hold hie position in the run home. St. Grace , loat hia rider near the halfmile post. Well-backed fancies in Algerian and Desert Sun began badly, while Moradabad galloped .patchily, soon drifting back. Won Going Away. Haughty Winner hne been a great proposition at Trentham for the Wellington owner, Mr. T. Coltinan. He wait ridden an excellent race by L. J. Ellin in the January Hnndicap and responded well to eventually win going p.wuy front Full HuiiJ, who had led until hnlf a i'mlong from home. LnilghiriK Lum alm» hail a prominent- position all the way and got to within a head of Full Hand at the pout. Flame Qneen mn a solid race for fourth, but was,just not up to the-clnm of the others. The rest never looked likely, though Lord -Cavendich met with a aovere check when attempting to go tliroiigh on the rails. Brilliant Beginner. Not Out, who in now out of the hacks, carried on his winning wny in the Ciimp Handicap, after being in a commanding position throughout. H<* went to tin* front with offortilesn t-ueo before reuching the course proper and was nrver afterward* tiroiibled. He should take high rank aa a sprinter as he >-im •'brilliant beginner. Cliief Lord responded-to vigorous) riding over the final trto furlongn to get up for second, w4»ile Wing* of Song beat STaluraibo by a noee for the minor placing; Chief Lord is duo, as he hae had six eeconde in eight starts. May fair and Phenomenal showed speed, but did not run qn. Gold Cheae was chopped out at the «tart.

Arvakur's Great Finish. The .Metropolitan Handicip provided one of the be«t linishes at the mooting, and in winning Aivnklir, who had run oil I lie ,nurse on the fir.-»t day, proved liiiu•"'ll I" l»e a great sprinter. Seven horses wei.. liirhtitii.' out a torrid finish when Aiv.ikiir ran u|» and passed them in the lill.il HHt y.udw.

Lord Puck biou-lit off a liisf «urprtsp in the Douro Oi|>. winning really well though hotly challcnired by the top-weight Sir C'lusoe over the final furlong Lord Puck i« a three-year-old grilling by Iliad from Ann Nhnfctwpeai e, and raced in the interests of Mr. .». M, Samson, of ])unedin. He had the run of the race in behind Veldette and Meadow to the utijiiglit. Sir Crusoe's effort under hi* l>ig weight was excellent and he looks like developing into a good open class horse. Meadow held his place in the run home, adding another minor placing to a good list. Lock it shaped disappointingly, never being prominent, while Rebellion lost his ehnnoe when he received a check early. Veldette. fourth, should win over a shorter distance.
