RICCARTON TRAINING NOTES. . The trial grass and tan tracks were thrown open at Riecarton 011 Saturday morning, and a ). jrt amount of interesting work w.is gone through. Nones (light, weight) was tho first out and without being allowed to do her best tho Martian filly galloped five furlongs on tho tau. in 1.3 2-sth. Her stable companion, Swale, went at about three-quarter pace over the same ground. Greenstreet and Xauthoa encompassed about six furlongs on the tan with Greenstreet easily the better over the last five in 1.5. Nightwatch (light weight) galloped seven furlongs alone on the "rasa, and, making hie time principally in the first half, covered the distance in 1.32. Fabrikoff and Sir Malt, from a standing start on the tan. cast six furlongs l>ehind in 1.1*5 2-sth. with Fabrikoff doing it the better over *he concluding stages. Snapdragon was assisted by Harlequin for about five furlongs of a "mile gallop, which the San Francisco filly put through in a fraction under l.lj. Down wis slightly ahead of Peg at the finish of a six furlong sprint on the grass, which took 1.17 3-sth. Don Pacifico ran hi.lf a mile alone 011 the grass up the back in 51 2-3 th. Bandy's task was a run over a milo at a good working pace on the grass. Wardancer gave Good Hope an advantage of about two lengths at the enmmer.eeme>nt of a six furlong gullop on the Trass, but had made up his lecwav at tho finish ir. 1.17 3-sth. Killena and Kilboyne, after a lot of trouble at the start, got away evnlv at the five furlong mark on the gruss. and at the finish Killena was going better than her companion in 1.1 2,5 th. Snub cant'iicd a round or to on the tun. Don Frincisco and St. Ewe were together throughout a seven furlong task which occupied 1.33 4-sth. There was little to choose between C-oimtess Tolstoi and Marc Antonv at til'e end of a mil> or. the the pair registering 1.14 3-oth. Tvevena took 1.5 2.5 th ..to get through a five furlong spin on the grass, and on the same track Multoc left half a mile behind in 31 2-3 th. After the interval Jeanuot, with a very light weight ud, put a mile and a quarter past in 2.11. The Charlemagne 11. gelding had Tokaralii for a companion, for a nart of the journey. McUchikoff (Gibb) ran six furlongs alone i;i luiin 19 2-sill, a gallop which Silent Way and

Kaminohc cxccutod in 1.18. MaTtuk sprinted half a mile brilliantly in 4Dsec, Bee it little inter taking 50 '2-sth.

Autumn Meeting closc to-morrow. Nominations for the Woodvillo T>istrict Jockey Club's Autumn Meeting closc this evening. Nominations for the "New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club's February Meeting close at 8 o'clock this cvening. The tax on the turnover at the Forbury Park Trotting Club's Meeting on Thursday and Saturday amounted to £'.503 13s (3d. Ij. Wilson, who will arrive at Iliccarton in time for the C.J.C. Meeting next Saturday, will remain m the South until after the Dunedin Cup Meeting next month. Bon Patch, the winner of the Musselburgh Handicap at Forbury Park on Saturday, is an Amcrican-brcd colt, but though ho was sired in the United States he was foaled in New Zealand. Tho n five-year-old Maniapoto—La Jesse gelding Nganoto, broke his back through falling in the Orcwa Hurdle Handicap at Takapuna on Saturday, but his rider, L. Traill, escaped serious injury. Owners and trainers interested in light-harness racing are reminded that nominations Ifor the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club's February Meeting close with Mr Rattray this evening at 8 o'clock. In the absence of Our Thorpe, the Royal Handicap at Forbury Park on Saturday was reduced to a match between Emmeline and Eccentric. Emmelinc did not begin -well, and Eccentric, getting away smartly, led all the way and won easily by three lengths. R. Berry's pair, Ringform and Kent Loch, have arrived at l&iccarton. The former will be a runner at tho C:J.C. Meeting next Saturday, and tho latter, who has completed a season at the stud, is being knocked into shape in view of meetings further ahead. On Soturdav morning at Riecarton, the Calibre gelding Bore (R. McSeveny) was sent over two of the pony hurdles. He ran about a little, and then encompassed a round over the big fences. His jumping was not too clean at first, but he improved at the last couple of hurdles. The Porirua-trained two-year-olds, Kilboy, by Kilbroney—Cyre, and Kilbrogan, by Kilbroney—Showana, are to be sent to Hawera to carry the colours of their breeder, -Mr J. B. Reid, in the Egmont -Stakes, six furlongs, to be run on "Wednesday next. So far' two-year-olds have not played a prominent part in the decision of the race. B. .Deeley increased his lead for the jockey premiership by steeling two. winners at Takapuna on Saturday. His nearest- rival, J. O'Sliea, failed to gain winning brackets. During the rac-o for the Ferry Handicap Deeley's mount, Summer Hose, and Pre-eminent (Garment) fell, but neither horseman was much the worse for the experience. Deeley rode again in the next race. Our Thorpe's visit to Dunedin last | week proved very unfortunate. He was being sent out to give an exhibij tion over a mile, but after going a ! couple of furlongs he shied at the ! shadow tlnown on the track by tiie starter's post, and fell heavily, throwing a complete somersault. He was rather badJj- knocked about and shaken and was in consequence unable to start in the Royal Handicap later on in the day. Hie driver, A. Fleming, escaped with a few _ bruises. Sartolera, Sarto —\ entalera, bred-at "Warrington, Otago. won the principal event at the Tasmanian Amateur Jockey Club's Meeting on the 19thinst. Svlvandale's fall on the second day of the Foxton Meeting was considered to have been caused by J. McLean (rider of Florist) cutting across the field at tho start of the race. "W. Price (rider of Sylvandale) received injuries to his head, which necessitated some attention, and J. McLean's license has been cancelled for three months for careless riding. The track at Forbury Park on Saturday was very fast, and. as the weather conditions were ideal, there being practically no wind, there were some very smart performances registered. The best was that put up by Don Caesar in the Forbury Handicap, and in getting to the end of the two miles in 4min '23 3-osec the Prince Imperial gelding established an Australasian racerccord for the distance. 'Hie previous best was Kmineline's 4min "'Oscc, which she established at Forbury Park in May, 191'J, Our I'horpo equalling that time m the New' Brighton Cup last month. »
