ELLERSLIE EVENTS

GOOD FIELDS. SUMMER CUP DAY. AUCKLAND RACING CLUB. PROSPECTS FOR MONDAY. Taken mi the whole the fields arc good for the sordini ilny of the Auckland )i.itin K 1 '" lj *•- Il( 'i inoftiiiu. which will be continued at Kllerslie on Monday, and there should again be some A<x>d raciilii. 'I'll.- chief event is the Sim, ,■ C i«i.. mi'l Kathbella, the top weight, won over the distance, one mile and u quarter. 5.ii.5,,,, a,,,] should b c in the picture. Uliv •'can, Ko.vul Appellant, Sly Fox and • ■nek have all .shown good form this season, while Kelle fane, who won the .Manawatu Lnp last Saturday, will have to be seriously considered. Cornish won the St. Andrew'* Handicap at Kllershe. one mile and a quarter, at his lust start, while Foxsen has also been successful over a similar journey. The Electric Handicap' has attracted a dozen. Bronwen won the Railway Handicap on Wednesday from Proud Kos and Arvakur. and she should again go well. Arvakur should be improved by that outing which was his best for some time, baxon Tor, Corato and Marshall Hall were well in the picture to the straight in that event, but then faded out. However, Gold Money Song stayed on to get fourth. Sure Pay and Kentucky are recent winners, but the latter failed on Thursday. The Kings Plate, though only half a dozen remain, should provide a good race. Royal Chief won the Wellington Handicap and the Harcourt Stakes, both mile and three furlong events at the recent Wellington fixture, and later at Riccarton accounted for the Canterbury Cup and the Metropolitan Handicap, both mile and a half events. Gayest Son was successful over seven furlongs at the latter meeting and was just beaten by Old Bill over a mile and a quarter at Woodville. He ran a fine race in the Christmas Handicap on Thursday when he finished second to Kindergarten. Don't Forget won the Dunedin Guineas, one mile, and was later second to Knrioh in the New Zealand Derby at Riccarton. Sir Beau annexed the Wellington Guineas, one mile, and was successful over six furlongs at Awapuni last Saturday, so that he has recent winning form. Sir Cameron won the Great Northern Guineas, while since his return from Riccarton he was just beaten by Cornish in the St. Andrew's Handicap, one mile and a quarter, at Ellerslie last month. Laimbourn won over a mile at, Masterton and a mile "and a distance at Woodville, so that there is material for a most interesting contest.
