(PBESS ISSOOUTION TZLEGRAM.)
DUNEDIN, February 14. Despite the proximity of Meeting . there was not a great deal of fsust work at Wingatiii this morning , . The principal reason for this ia, of course, the fact that the Northern ■, contingent, arriving by special train, will not appear en .the track until to-morrow morning. 'Odessa and Mt. were the only horses toAVork bcJoro breakfast, and th«y. accomplished.useful -work on the plough, the Cup horse running over -a mile. Sister Radius beat Obeono and Peppin ov«r ejx' furlongs, in' lmin 17e»c. The Inst named went the lost five furlongs, and Obeono galloped ungenerouely. Sister Radius has come on nicely during the ;past week. My Glove .and Jacobite ran fivo furlongs in linin" 7eec, ■ und Ogier beat Afton Loch over fire furlongs in lmin A 4-sth eeo, and walked much sounder aftor the gallop than he did on the. previous morning. , Busso and the Champagne Stakes colt, Roiunaniu, 'were /both too good : for Czar Kolohol and Larkspur over five furlongs run in lmin Geec. Rongahero ran down lalf a mile in 52 2-sth mc, and. Parable, Gap on, and Aphaea broke \iniy from the mile post, with, the firet-named Raoning two or more lengths, advantage. The trio came along to the" straight, "where Aphaea dropped out, and Parable finished in front of Uapon in lmin *5 ■I-Stheec. They ran. the-first half mile in 53 3-sth eec, and Gapon was coming. on towards tho finish. Moonglow worked on a lead .and Jack Aahore, Simon Pure, .tore Gold, Tommy, and one or tiro others did unimportant, work.
