He is now out of hacks, his winnings for first pl&cings coining to £560. High Priced Juvenile. The Hunting Song two-year-old Oratorian, who showed a lot of promise earlier in the season, did not improve upon his form as expected, though he ran one good race at Wellington. Oratorian has begun to grow fast, and probably this has handicapped him, So is engaged in the classic events at Biccarton at Easter, but it is not decided yet whether ho will make the trip, Xndiaa Racing. Racing in apparently in a flourishing condition in Rangoon. In an article is an exchange it is mentioned, among other things, that the seats in the stands are of the tip-up order, the same as in theatres, and-that overhead electric fans are provided to add to the comfort of the visitors. The cost of construction of the new racecourse and stands aggregated £300,000, whioh has been principally paid out of tOtalieator profits. The Rangoon season generally runs to 33 days, and about 800 races—they like plenty each day—and as the average value is, or was, nearly £3OO, owners are well looked after, Sydney Racing To-day. Waterline will Tiave another opper* tunity to-day of trying conclusions with the three-year-old elassic winners, Veilmond, Balloon King, and TregUla. This will be in the Chipping Norton Stakes, miles, to be run at Warwick JVirow Though nominally a weight-for-age race, there is provision for penalties in re* speet of wins other than in handicap events, and also for libera) allowances to maidens. So far as these conditions can be interpreted here, it would look as if the New Zealand four-year-old would meet hi* younger opponents on appreciably better terms «i to weight than when he beat them all at Rosehill last Saturday, The winner's share In the prixe-money is £530, with a £7 sweepstake. An Exploded Idea., Some racing men, writes "Poseidon" in the Sydney "Sun,'' are ad* verse to buying the progeny of mares that have never sported silk on tha racecourse, contending that as the dam was not taught how to gallop she can hardly "be expected to produce a really good performer,. Many instances, howover, can be quoted of good horses whose dams did not raeo, and the latest is the Australian Cup winner, Carry On* She is out of Farfadet, who did not once face the barrier in public Farfadet is by Hurry On; from the Storno. way mare, Wodasprite, end foaled in 1922, Was imported from England in 1924. Subsequently she went to Mr Percy Miller's Kia-Ora stud, and ' her firfet living foal, a filly by Magpie, has now gained fame as the. winner of an Australian Cup, and, incidentally, proved a fine bargain at her yearling price of 350 guineas. Carry On's family is known to Sydney Taeegoers through Anyhow, winner, of an A.J.C. Stakes. ■ ■ Trainer's ptaqualificatloa.

TROTTING NOTES.

A Beminder. Nominations for the Ashburton Trotting Club's Autumn Meeting close on Monday. Thames T.O. The Thames Trotting Club's Annual Meeting will be held to-day. Horses that should run well include :-«Prince Etawah, Kewpie's Triumph, Joy Bide, Typiste, Explosion, First flight, Bolfe j Audubon, Windchat, and Lord Nepoan. Bracketed Horses. Horses that will be bracketed at Wellington to-day include:—Romanos and Fleet Arrow and Arthur Chimes and Highland Derby in the Autumn Novice Handicap; St, George and Baron Bingen in the Armstrong Handicap; Highland Derby and Jewel Elect in the Waiwetu Handicap; Highland Derby and Jewel Elect and Harvest Girl and Glenlake in the Au Bevoir Handicap. A Possibility. Oxford Queen is likely to be a warm favourite in the Waiwetu Handicap at Wellington to-day. She raced badly in the Cheviot Cup, of two miles, last Saturday, bnt the shorter distance of a mile and five furlongs should suit her nicely. A Favourite. Biddy Parrish registered a good performance at the recent Tim&ru Meeting when she went two miles in 4min 4$ 3-saeo from a 4min SSsee mark. If a commission is worked for this mare to*day she will be very hard to beat in both of her Wellington engagements. Needs Experience. 0. ®. Donald is giving Bon plenty of racing experience, and it is just a question as to when the Beal Guy eolt will have had enough experience to justify his backing in a race. Bon haß speed, but is still unreliable at the barrier. A Promising Trotter. N. It. Price has taken charge of the three-year-old trotter by Travis Axworthy from Sallywood, owned and previously twined by E. C. McDermott. The youngster has still a lot to learn so far as trotting is concerned, and may not be ready to race for some time. The speed is there, but the ability to use it to advantage is missing, A Oraok Pacer. Free Advice is doing her work correctly at Addington, and with recent racing in her favour she is one of the early favourites for the Easter Handicap at Addington. Free Advice is one of the fastest pacers in commission, but there is a question as to whether she is as genuine in her races as her traek form would lead one to believe. A Moderate. Ola Pointer, in ,E. C. McDermott's stable, is in regular'work at Addington, but though fairly fast over a mile, Bhe finds a mile and a half altogether too far. She worked out with Delightful on Thursday, but was no match for G. | MeKendry's gelding, who is a useful I customer. | For Wellington. i M, B. and S. A. Edwards left for ! Wellington on Thursday with Royal i Parade and OranleigK. The latter, who i is engaged in the big race to-day, haß [ 4 hard t&sk in front or him, and he may be better suited by conditions at Addington next week. Cr&nleigh is a | genuine racehorse and typical of the Travis Airworthy breed, A Nippy Pwer. Free who is trained at Adstay a journey, fie has speed, and a mile journey may be as far as he wishes to go. | The Snots* rawnxite. ! Begal Voyage by her work at Addington of, late hat' greatly fljiased t;»«k i.wtttehers, and ebe irf bonnd to be well siippbrted in the Easter: Handicap at 'Addington. , After having registered totttr than 4mia BOseo for two miles, Begal Voyage is now on tain SSsee, while in the pre-system days she would probably have been on about 4min afiiec. If the present system has done nothing else it baa obviated the unreasonable penalties that were at one time imposed upon horses for outstanding performance*. A wMrmn. Whtti rft*e4 Timsra e«rll»r in the month Uwleen showed extreme speed in the Beftdewn Handicap, in Whieh she made a bid beginning and eventually finished a gobd third only a head be* hind Batloe after running the mile and' a fcdlf in ftmlA 99 1 Bsec. At one stage of the journey she was almost last, ttra after racing into second place she j WM beaten only on the post for this! Logaleen is Inclined to be temperamental, but there is no doubt: about hef spsed. itm Melbourne trotting enthusiasts followed the fortunes of G. Gath's team in i New Zealand with,great interest, says a Melbourne 'Writer, < He has now ~ro-1 .turned to Australia and warmly praises trotting conditions in New Zealand, saythat the Addington track is equal to Moonee Valley as a racecourse. One can quite imagine his enthusiasm for Addington after having done most of his rAcing on the saucer track at Bichmond, where there is scarcely room for a large field of ponies, let alone trotters with sulkies, attached. Gath will take another teem to New Zealand in October, i Anetratiatt mv««ton. It seems likely that there will be an invasion of New Zealand by Australian trotting horses in the spring, according to an exchange. Two already mentioned as almost certain to make the trip are W. McKay's pair, Direct Home ana Auburn Lad, Con Derby, winner of a division Of the Victoria Trotting Derby, will go in charge of G. Kelly, Who may also, take Boy Major; Others likely to be given a chance of distinguishing themselves in New Zealand later in the yesr are Atoont "Wilkes, a brilliant pacer, and Walla Walla, who is recognised as the champion mile and a half horse in Australia. Trotting in Perth. . tn iOl4 the first electric light meeting of the Western Australian Trotting Cluo was held. A- mediocre crowd assembled .■**-& diffident lot, mingling with the small bands of enthusiasts who hed all along rallied under the banner of Jim Brennan.' Sinoe that inaugural meeting of Isl4, what things have happened?. Wonderful things! The bost horses South of the line have, shown their paces in Perth; and some of the best New Zealftnders have been beaten by chantJiiOns from New South Wales. The overs Of the utility horse in the Western State have seen in action horses that can travel at a 2min 7sec gait to the mile. The Western Australian Trotting Association has given away in 14 years £830,000' in stakes, In one year alone . disbursed £31,445 in prise money: and seven of its meetings were charity affairs, Its new! grounds at East Perth are the talk oC interstate and international visitors# When it was decided (says a writer in the ''Sydney Referee") to spend A 150,000 on this glorious trysting place, situated On the banks of the Swan river, the cynics said th&tf the Trotting Asiociation was med. They will alter the burden of their song befoN many years have passed.

Tba Westport Jockey Club's Meeting opening to-day, will be mostly confined to West Coast-trained horses, the only visitors being the Timaru-owned Shortly and After Ten. The following may race prominently:—Trial Handicap: Jael, IWr Go; Morley Handicap: Cooraaaade, Shortly, Noteworthy; Electric Handicap: Taku Tama, Projection; Beaalon Handicap: Killigrew, After Tm; Arawaiti Handicap: Dawn a' Pay, Ors&efcem: Karamea Handicap: Baby Baa, Bavme. Touring Ho Opportunities. A. ]5. Ellis, A. Eastwood, And B. Coyasy swtored to Greymouth yesterday afteraagn and will attend the Westport Meeting to-day and on Monday. Ellis win tide Noteworthy, Fortaliee, and StVjMllim to-day, and Eastwood will fee oa Itarine, Ardfinnan, Fair Go, and ' Mataa. Uka&r Change of Plans. TkeJk>*kburn Handicap, to .be, run •a the first day Of the Canterbury Joekey Club's Easter Mating, promises tft attract * small Held, and there is a pa—IblHty that both Limerick training were to be sold. Sine® the announcement he has won four races, three with Bimba and one with My Own, while Blmba also ran a second. Slmba has struck real form at last. He is now out of hacks, his winnings for first placings coming to £560. High Priced Juvenile. The Hunting Song two-year-old Oratorian, who showed a lot of promise earlier in the season, did not improve upon his form as expected, though he ran one good race at Wellington. Oratorian has begun to grow fast, and probably this has handicapped him. He is engaged in the classic events at Biccarton at Easter, but it is not decided yet whether he will make the trip, Indian Racing. Racing in apparently in a flourishing condition in Rangoon. In an article in an exchange it is mentioned, among other things, that the seats in the stands are of the tip-up order, the same as in theatres, and-that overhead electric fans are provided to add to the comfort of the visitors. The cost of construction of the new racecourse and stands aggregated £300,000, which has been principally paid out of totalisator profits. The Rangoon season generally runs to 33 days, and about 800 races— they like plenty each day—and as the average value is, or was, nearly £309, owners are well looked after, Sydney Racing Rnlay. Waterline will Tiave another opper» tunity to-day of trying conclusions with the three-year-old elassie winners, Veilmond, Balloon King, and TregiHa. This will be in the Chipping Norton Stake*, miles, to }>e run at Warwick Farm. Though nominally a weight-forage race, there is provision for penalties in r*» speet of wins other than in handicap events, and also for libera) allowances to maidens. So far as these conditions can be interpreted here, it would look as if the New Zealand four-year-old would meet Ms younger opponents on appreciably better terms as to weight than when he beat them all at Rosehill last Saturday, The winner's share In the prlte-money is £530, with a sweepstake. An Exploded Idea., . '. Some racing men, writes "Poseidon" in the Sydney "Sun,'' are ad* verse to buying the progeny of mares that have never sported silk on tha racecourse, contending that as the dam was not taught how to gallop she can hardly "be expected to produce a really good performer,. Many instances, howover, can be quoted of good horses whose dams did not race, and the latest is the Australian Cup winner, Carry Qn» She is out of Farfadet, who did not once face the barrier in public. Farfadet is by Hurfy On; from the Storno. way mare, Wooclaprite, and foaled in 3922, was Imported from England in 1924. Subsequently she went to Mr Percy Millet's &ia»Ora stud, and ' her firit living foal, a filly by Magpie, has now gained fame as the winner of an Australian Cup, and, incidentally, proved a line bargain at her yearling price of 350 guineas. Carry On's family is known to Sydney Taeegoers thtottghr Anyhow, winner, of an A.J.C. V0iers Stakes. Thames T.O. The Thames Trotting Club's Annual Meeting will be held to-day. Horses that should run well include :-«Prince Etawah, Kewpie's Triumph, Joy Bide, Typiste, Explosion, First flight, Bolfe Audubon, Windchat, and kord Nepean. Bracketed Howes. Horses that will be bracketed at Wellington to-day include:—Romanos and Fleet Arrow and Arthur Chimes and Highland Derby in the Autumn Noviee Handicap; St, George and Baron Bingen in the Armstrong Handicap; Highland Derby and Jewel Elect in the Waiwetu Handicap; Highland Derby and Jewel Elect and Harvest Girl and Glenlake in the Au Bevoir Handicap. A Possibility. Oxford Queen is likely to be a warm favourite in the Waiwetu Handicap at Wellington to-day. She raced badly in the Cheviot Cup, of two miles, last Saturday, bnt the shorter distance of a mile and five furlongs should suit her nicely. A Favourite. Biddy Parrish registered a good performance at the recent Timaru Meeting when she went two miles in 4min 4$ 3-5aeo from a 4min SSsec mark. If a commission is worked for this mare to-day she will be very hard to beat in both of her Wellington engagements. Needs Experience. 0. ft. Donald is giving Bon plenty of racing experience, and it is just a question as to when the Beal Guy eolt will have had enough experience to justify his backing in a race. Bon haB speed, but is still unreliable at the barrier. A Promising Trotter. N. L. Price has taken charge of the three-year-old trotter by Travis Axworthy from Sallywood, owned and previously trained by E. C. McDermott. The youngster has still a lot to learn so far as trotting is concerned, and may not be ready to race for some time. The speed is there, but the ability to use it to advantage is missing, A Oraok Pacer, Free Advice is doing her work correetly at Addington, and with recent racing in her favour she is one of the early favourites for the Easter Handicap at Addington. Free Advice is one of the fastest pacers in commission, but there is a question as to whether she is as genuine in her races as her traek form would lead one to believe. A Moderate. Ola Pointer, in ,E. C. McDermott's stable, is in regular'work at Addington, but though fairly fast over a mile, Bhe finds a mile and a half altogether too far* She worked out with Delightful on Thursday, but was no match for G. MoKendry's gelding, who is a useful customer. For Wellington. M, B. and S. A. Edwards left for Wellington on Thursday with Royal Parade and Cranleigh. The latter, who is. engaged in the big race to-day, has a hard task in front or him, and he may. fee liettbr suited by conditions at Aldington next week. Crftnleigh is a genuine racehorse and typicalof the
