TROTTING NOTES.

Aeeeptaaeee for the Combined Clubs' Benefit Meeting eloae on Wednesday at noon* Through the agency of W. J. Tomkinson the well-known pater Golden Devon haa been sold to a West Australian bayer, and the gelding, accompanied by Spotlight, by Matehligbt—Coldstream Bella mare, was shipped to Western Australia on Friday. Gplden Devon is a very brilliant hone np to a mile and. 9 half, and he should do well in his new home. Regime, by Realm —Bothfield, haa been retired from racing and is on a visit to N'elaon Derby at Aahburton. E. B. Berry has jnst taken in hand a two-year-old colt by Cathedral Chimesimperial Fan, the property of Mr R. A. Anderson. Jackie Logan is another addition to the Templeton trainer's stable. The only ineident requiring the consideration of the Judicial Committee at New Brighton on Saturday was in con nesion with a protest lodged against Dipnoi, winner of the Autumn Handicap, for galloping, and some surprise was expressed when the protest was not upheld. Dipnoi, New Metford, and All Fetere were fighting out the finish, and it seemed that both All Peten and New Metford would both defeat Dipaoi. A ooaple of lengths from the post Dipnoi made a bound, and it seemed that in this bound he got his head in front. 1 ule 116, bearing on "Horses breaking," reads as follows: "If a horse, by breaking at or near the winning post, j;ains thereby such an advantage as to enable him to run into a place before any other horse or horses in the raee, ha ihall be plaeed behind sueh other horse or horses, and may be plaeed behind any other horse or horses in the rr •»." It appeared that the break gave Dipnoi the raee, but the Judicial Committee ooeupled some time before eoming to a decision, and on the evidence submitted the members were probably satisfied that the break did not affect the result. F. G. Holme* had not enjoyed the best of luck during the 1928-29 season, but on Saturday at New Brighton he I eame prominently before the public by driving three winners and a second. He ' opened the programme by driving Admiral Bingen into second plaee behind Scuttle, and he followed this np by winning the second event with Cushla d'Or. Later In the afternoon he was seen to advantage behind Jolly Pet and Muriel d'Oro. Both Cushla d'Or and Jolly Pet returned double figure dividends, and altogether it seemed that Holmes's luek had taken a turn for the better for the day at least. No horses raced at New Brighton on Saturday looked better than those trained by C. 8. Donald. Grand Can yon, Sunny Bob, Invader, and Dilnon all appeared in great 1 ' le, but Sunny 1 Bob and Invader were the only two to ! ra<-<> accordingly, bunny Bob - von the ! principal handicap like a good one, and Invader's sensational finish in the Wainoiii Handicap had the crowd on tip toes. The Rey de Oro paeer can unwind a great burst of speed, and better , placed in the early stages he must have ■ won. ! E. C. McDennott purchased Marshal Neil at the eoneluaion of the August 1 Meeting at Addington, and the gelding raeed in hia colours on Saturday. Marshal Neil showed brilliancy, but failed to see out a mile and a quarter. 1929 All Blacks.—The New Zealand team used ElUmaa's Bmbrocatton during the Australian tour. Invaluable for sprains, strains, and general training. Recommended for all athletes. —1

NEW BRIGHTON T.C.

BIG EVENT TO SUNNY 808. EXCITING RACING. Aliaost perfect weather prevailed on Saturday for the New Brighton Trotting Club's Spring Meeting, and the result was a very good attendance of the public at the seaside racecourse. The sport provided vr&s well above the average, and several of the finishes were exciting ami close, the public being ulife ware of the results until the numbers were hoisted by the judge, Mr A. J. Dickson. This official had by 110 meats an easy task, but his decisions were given with a promptness that was pleasing. Under the president, Mr \V. E. Thompson, the honorary stewards carried out their multifarious duties witli a thorough understanding of the work, and Mr A. I. .Rattray, as is usuai. had the detail arrangements running smoothly. Mr J. Sampson aeted as stipendiary steward, but nothing of a serious nature engaged hi 3 attention, although a protest against the winner, Dipnoi for galloping in the Autumn Handicap occupied a good deal of the time of the Judicial Committee. Excepting for the "fairy rings," which apparently cannot be got 'rid of, the track wa3 in very fair order, although at times the big fields racing together raised clouds of dust that interfered with the 1 The lawns and enclosures have never looked Letter than waj the case on Saturday. Speculation on the totalisator was spirited, and a total of £23,756 10s was put through the machine, as against £24,500 10s last year, an increase of £1286.

Ha'kthorne began very smartly, and led into the baek from Logan King, Pear! Logan, and Great Triumph. Half a mile from home Qrekt Triumph was In charge, and led on to the home stretch from Hacktkorne, Cullengville, and Pearl Logan. In a punishing finish Cullensville beat Great Triumph by a neck, with Sylvia Logan four length away. Pearl Logan was fourth. Times—2.l7 3-5, 2.18 4-5, 2.17. Winner trained by 2. X. Clarke, New Brighton. NOTES ON THE RACING. An Unwieldy Field. Twenty-nine horses faced the starter in the Improvers' Handicap, but it was plain that a good percentage were in need of the experience which a raee would give tfcem. King's Voyage, Bonne Fille, and Nelson Prince were bracketed on the machine, ancl were supported right royalty by the betting public. The start was a tragic affair, for not half a dozen seemed to know what was required when the barriers were released. The more experienced brigade had all the best of matters, and it was not long before Great Burton was showing the way to Scuttle, while Admiral Bingen, commencing with Ms usual celerity, was soon amongst the leaders. When Admiral Bingen ran past Scuttle half a mile from home the raee seemed as good as won, but J. Bryee, jun., bahiad Scuttle, was quite content to act th« role of p&ee-follower, and it wag not until a furlong from home that he asked his heree for M effort. Scuttle had plenty left in reserve, whereas Admiral Bingen had had enough. The result was a aomewhat eaay win for Scuttle, who improved considerably on hi« handicap time. Great Burton was finishing

much faster than Admiral Bingen, but I h"'« exhibition was a mixed one. Scuttle j did a fair amount of rasing lest year, j showing p-enty of speed, bu: usually < failing to ward's the end of her races. ; She uTav be getting more solid, and aa- i Jt'her ra;e should ecme her way. Ad- j ciiral Bincen is brilliant, bet seems ro 1 lack stamina, and Great Burton is far too unreliable at present. The best cf | the remainder was Nancy ilcKinney, j who in M. B. Edwards's hands gave an ; ini-jrovei showing. to! made no showing. A Promising Piily. August Pointer caused some delay i througn rearing and railing at the start j 0£ the Belfast Handicap, and eventually 1 he broke up badly wnen the barriers ! were released. It was not long before ! Venare was showing the way" to the j fic-ld, and he earried on until well into I the straight, when Cushla d'Or eanie j with a very fasr run, to win in most | convincing style. Cushla d'Or is a | four-year-old filly, and up to the present ' has done little racing. She is a line stamp of pacer and looks like going on to do bigger things. She made a proper exhibition on this occasion of a held that included several very promising horses. Venare, trained at Eangiora, did well to make the pace for the greater part of the journey, but he bad had enough towards the end, and Salient, who finished third, looked as though he could be improved a good deal. He was always up with the leaders, as were Cyone and Sonoma Laddie, who finished just behind the placed horses. The lastnamed may do even better before long. Warrenore went a good race, but Grand Canyon broke up badly when apparently going well. Netta Oro, a four-year-oid filly by Hey de Oro and trained by N. C. Price, showed a lot of speed and should benefit by the experience. An Exciting Finish. Sunny Bob always held the pasitiea of favourite in the Burwood Handicap, and at the closs of operations the bracketed pair fair Wave and Krina were seeond in demand. At the Krina refused to leave, and Kiowa, Golden Ore, and Western Voyage went unsteadily. It was not long before Hector's Own was showing the ''vay, and when she faded out of the issue Sunny Bob, Pair Wave, Locanda Boy, Avenger, and Billy Sea were all handy. Sunny Bob took charge in the straight, and hot on his heels were Avenger and Billy Sea, while Fair Wave was tueked in behind and unable to find an opening. It was not until Avenger failed a bit that S. A. Edwards could get Fair Wave through, and then she put in a most determined effort. The post was reached none too soon for Sunny Bob, who was all out and apparently a bit fortunate to win. He went a very goos raee, however, for in the early stages he was a good way baek and had to do all his work on the outside of the field. He finished gamely under pressure and should win again in the near future, Fair Wave is a fine ehe3tnut mare by Waverley—Fair Lady, and it should not be long before she strikes a winning vein. Billy Sea, who has 011 previous occasions shown a liking for the New Brighton course, again went a really good race and only a short margin separated him from the winner at the finish. Avenger, too, paced solidly, and only failed in the last hundred yards, while Firpo made up a lot of ground over the last quarter-mile. and Locanda Boy were both in the picture for a mile and a half, but Western Voyage showed nothing like his true form at any stage of the raee. Erin's Lynn's form was promising and Golden Ore showed a. lot of speed. The Favourites Beaten. The Seaview Handicap was generally voted a race between Tactless and Delightful, and the pair carried a big percentage of the investments. There was trouble in store for backers, for Delightful failed to "begin correctly, and Tactless also lost ground in the early part of the race. The oarly rnnning\ was made by Bed Audubon and Audrey Dillon, but half a mile from the post Apex shot to the front, and hurried for home- Taetless, in the meantime, had shown a lot of speed, and he was in a handy position when the straight waa reached. Although he hung on gamely, he had no chanee with Apex, who won with something in hand, and Alpine Melody, eoming with a great burst, just failed to reach the favourite. Apex and his driver, B. A. Berry, received a hearty round of applause on returning to the birdcage. The win was distinctly popular with owners and trainers. Apex has done little racing, but he is a big, robust gelding, who should stay. Tactless was set a hard task from the start, but he stuck to fci« guns gamely. Had Alpine Melody" occupied a better position earlier in the raee, she might have got second money, for she put in a great burst over the last part. Mae Dillon faded over the last part, and none of the others ever lookrd like taking in the finish. A Close Finish. All Peters, New Metford, and Dipnoi were the three favourites for the Autumn Handicap, and they bad the finish to themselves. Mount Boyal and New Metford were responsible for most of the running, but over the last half mile Mount Royal faded out, and Dipnoi and All Peters were close behind New Metford, with Repute uext. A great race to the post resulted in Dipnoi, New Metford, *md All Peters crossing the line almost together, the verdiet going to Dipnoi. The winner gave the least impressive display of the placed horses, for he made a number of breaks, and actually crossed the line at a gallop. New Metford, too, made one or two skips, but his display was altogether a good one, and All Peters went solidly from start to finish. Repute was toe best of the remainder, but the others gave very poor displays, especially the back-markers, Bingen Starr and Tonic. At the conclusion of the raee, W. Doyle, driver of All Peters, entered a protest against the winner, Dipnoi, for galloping, but the Judicial Committee dismissed it. Muriel D'Oro Wins. There was some smart pacing in the Dash Handicap, for which Lough Neagh was made a warm favourite, with Muriel d'Oro next in demand. Lough Neagh failed to go away correctly and was never dangerous. Great Triumph, Pearl Logan, and Bed Audubon all had turns at pacemaking and entering the straight Pearl Logan was leading from Becky Mine, Mao Dillon, and Muriel d' Oro. with Nelson MeCormack fast making up ground Murie! d'Oro had to eome on the outside and she quickly sileneed the opposition, winning very easily. She is a" fine filly, and though f*. G. Holmes was flicking her with the whip half a wile from home, she came on very gamely, and fairly outstayed the restShe went 2.15 2-5 oft' a 2.18 mark, but this is not the limit of her speed. N:lson MeCormaek went 2.12 4-5, whi?h must be regarded as a very good go, and he finished better than expected. Mae Dillon failed to see the journey out, and Great Triumph closed up very quickly. Dilnon and Cora Tacks were not prominent on the journey, F- G. Holmes's Treble. The third win of the day came the wav of F. G. Holmes, when Jolly Pet won the Wainoni Handicap, and supporters of the Chestnut were rewarded w i t b another double-figure dividend. Giideaway was made favourite, but she broke after going a couple of furlongs, wbil® Invader lost ground at the start. Marshal Neil was in front before half the journey had been covered, and with half a mil® to go he was well in the lead. At this stage Jolly Pet, who was alwavs well piaeed, went to the front

and in the straight appeared cing with ridiculous «^ s ®- J however, pat in a sensational run, and nowe\er, pui. , mount to Holmes h#d to shake up o» get borne a winner by . -/.in "Invader finuh.6d at ft narrow margin. Invade t great rate, and a stride P carlie? £ ™ almost ej,UMj ra\7oX, Hs £i\SS*"ot be far off Jollv Pet had been showing good fern in his work P«vious lo the August Meeting at Addmgton, but his bad manners at the starting arner had been ell against success. On this occasion he left the mark smartly, and never appeared likeiy to make a mistake. Even his driver must have been unpleasantly surprised at the vigour of Invader's finish. William the Great went a raee that suggests he is coming right back to form end there was some merit in his third placing. Curfew Bo> showed speed, but broke dur.ng *.he running, and Marshal Neil. Crrey Cioud, and Granite City all tired badly. Backers Astray. Backers made the two North oanterburv representatives, Hackthoine and Pearl Logan, favourites for the Electric Handicap, but they were wide of the mark. Haeithome went away very sjnartlv, but Great Triumph, beginning slowlyj pulled to the front, and stih held his lead till well into the straight. Here Cullensville, Pearl Logan, and Sylvje Logan challenged, but Great Triumph hung on gamely. Cullens\iL", however, under vigorous horsemanship, earried too many guns, and over the last few yards had a decided advantage, while Great Triumph held on to beat Sylvie Logan for second piaee. Lullensville is a big, clumsy-looking pa*er, but he aeems to do especially well in saddle races. Great Triumph, as usual managed to lose some ground at the Btart, and afterwards pulled so harn that he used up all his reserve energy befere the final pineh came- None or the others showed good form, and Sylvie Logan beat a lot of tired horses.
