A OhtaM for Biders. Advice received from Dunedin states that there will be * shortage of jockey# at the Beaumont Meeting on Saturday and Monday next. ■ TSoro wo ® ftw licensed boys at Biecarton who do not cet many opportunities of . riding in races, and this meeting might give them a chance. An Early attorn. Noteworthy, now trained at Beefton by A. J. Cfriffen, made hia first appearance in hia new owner's colours at Westport on Saturday, and repaid a good portion of the 200 guineas paid for him to Mr G. Gerard. More successes should eome his way during the West Coast Easter circuit. Jockey Abroad.

B. Bosen, who rode in Auckland and Canterbury for a time, writing to th'o Sydney "Beferee," says: "I again topped the winning jockeys* list in Ceylon for the third year running, with 32 wins, after riding only six months; I was in Australia the relit of the time. In September, when there was no racing in Colombo, I went to Poona for, five days, and had the pleasure of riding six winners. Then back to Colombo for October, November, and December. There I am on top of the jockeys' liit for this year with 11 wins. Owing to bad times, raeing is curtailed in Ceylon till April, so l am now under a retainer in-Bombay till the season finishes, I have ridden four days here up to the present, and the first day I rode-1 won one race and the last three days I'vo won a double. Beven wins up to now, and i' hope to continue.

Boyal Comrade, who, at times, has shown exceptional speed in hia work at Addington, is now trained on the old Canterbury Park course by P. Holmes.

McKendry took Ambleside and Achray to Wellington en Friday, and handed them over-to. their owner, Mr T. Capstiek. On occasions both horses have been responsible for solid work at Addington, but they have failed to race up to form. McKendry has a fairsized team in work including Mister Pointer, Delightful, Bolinda, Warbird, and Aleron and the most likely of these to win a race in the near future is Delightful, a brilliant sprinter, bpt not a genuine stayer.

Bsc* Abandoned. " • Owmg to the paucity of entries the Australian Trotting Club has been compelled to abandon its annual Sydney Thousand Trot, which was t"o have been ran at Easter. In its place the club has put on a £SOO race. An Australian Invasion. Paragraphs appearing in Australian papers hint at the likelihood of several trotters and pacers being brought across to Now Zealand.to race in the nearfuture, says an exchange; At one time it. was quite common for trainers to bring horse* aerou from Sydney or Melj bourne, help themselves to the good ; stake money on offer here, and trip back home again. So successful were ! they that New Zealand began to view | the invasions seriously, and two years I ago it was decided that all horßes< coming across from Australia were to be I handicapped two seconds to the mile betI ter than weir best record. At least it was j understood this was in force; it.was discovered that there was never actnally a rule, but that it was merely 8 re- ! commendation from the New- Zealand , Trotting Association. It had the effect i of making those who had been tripping across this way to stop at home. Now that Australian horsty are handicapped ai our"own we may expect .occasional visits again. It is reported that there ia a chance of Walla Walla coming over. This ia the fastest paeer in Australia, and, of coarse, he would have to take his plaee in the. beat -company. TRAINING AT EIXERSLIE.

WELLINGTON T.C. CHIEF RACE TO HAPPY LAND. MAJOR LIND WINS SPRINT. [THE PfcESS Special Service.] WELLINGTON, March 28. The Wellington Trotting Club's Autumn Meeting was held at Hutt Park, Petone, to-day in fine weather. Though it had rained during the night, the track waa not affected, and good times were recorded. The chief event, the Armstrong Handicap, provided one of the best races seen on the course for some time, and was won by Happy Land, in a close finish from Dillon Logan. The chief sprint race, the Recovery Handicap, went to the Scottish pacer, Major "Lind, who ran a good fourth* ia. the big race earlier in the day. Taking all things into consideration, the totalisntor turnover of £19,820, representing a decrease of £11,196 108 on the £31,016 10s for- the Autumn Meeting of last year, must be considered satisfactory, as trotting in Wellington at this time last-year waa just gaining in popularity, and money waa m more plentiful circulation than it is n«sv. Saturday's result waa mainly due to the good attendance, and the fact that form horses were mainly paying the dividends. Results:— AUTUMN NOVICE HANDICAP, In harness. Of 116 bovs. 4min 2sec class.

NOTES ON THE RACING.

[THE .PRESS Special Service.] WELLINGTON, March 28. Bon's First Win. Bon, the four-year-old son of Beal Guy, in 0, 8. Donald's stable, showed a marked improvement in his manners at the start of the Autumn Novice Handicap. He went off smoothly, gave a very steady exhibition of pacing, and had plenty of, speed in reserve to meet all challengers. Bon, Golden Oaks, Mur. chimes, and Royal led over the first circuit. Then Parade ran into third place, and for the next half mile followed Bon and Golden Oaks, with Fleet Arrow, Murchimes, . and Highland Derby closing up from the rear. When asked for a little more speed Bon easily responded, and he came away to win easily by two lengths from Royal Parade, who stayed on too well against Golden Oaks, in the contest for second money; Golden, Oaks, with E. C. McDermott in the sulky, did not stand up to the pressure over the last three furlongs,- while Fleet Arrow was | misfiring in his gait a long way from I. i , , '

home. Bon should improve if fce continues tor behave himself, while Boyal Parade, with three" successive seconds to his credits should do better at Easter. Favourite Broke Up. Biddy Parrish, a winner at Timaru, was made a warm favourite for the March Handicap Trot, bat she disappointed her supporters by breaking up less than one hundred yards from the judge, when leading, and in a winning position. Ben BingeH, a Ann second favourite, and Blue and Gold failed to go off and the former continued to give an inglorious display, never properly settling down. Nelson Parrish began very smartly, and led by several lengths from Merce Bingen, Miss Leda, and Biddy Parrish. . Tomkinson ran the latter to the front before entering on the last cireuit, and with Merce Bingen racing on the outer, he made he? do it all the way down the back stretch. They turne'd for home on'terms, but the favourite was first to weaken, and she went up in the air, leaving Merce Bingen to run in an easy, winner by .a good three lengths. Kelson Parrish, who had trotted steadily throughout, filled second berth, and Great' Glee, after a very unsteady passage, showed up over the last furlong and got third money. Miss Leda, who also put in a break, was fourth, a head in front of Biddy Parrish, who failed to settle down after her fatal break in front of the stands. The winner went very attractively. She is well-bred, being by Nelson Bingen, from the Galindo mare,' Meree, and raees in the eolours of the Ohristchureh barrister, Mr R W. Johnston.

Happy Land Again. The race for the Armstrong Handicap Was one of the best contests seen on the Hutt Park course for some time, and resulted in a 'narrow , victory for Happy Land, who won the . chief event at the Nelson Club's Meeting, held on Hutt Park a forntight ago, Dillon Logan, Real Girl, Happy Land, and St. George were the best backed and half a mile from home they all held winning chances. Bonniewah was the only one of the ten runners not to go off properly and when the field settled down, Zella waa showing out from Major Lind, Tumatakuru, Beal Girl, St. Geo*ge, Happy Land, and Dillon Logan, with El Direct and Purser' last. At the end of the first circuit, Tumatakuru had run into second place. The field ran in bunched order for the next half lap, where Bonniewah had improved her position, and Dillon Logan, St.. George, Zella, and Happy Land were up in the van with Major Lind and Tumatakuru dropping back. Happy Land and Dillon Logan drew away across the top the last time, and were followed by Major Lind. The two leaders fought it cut neck and neck down the straight, Happy Land prevailing by a head. Purser staged a late run from the baek'and was only a neck behind Dillon Logan in turd place; Major lind was close up fourth, with St. George, £1 Direct, and Beal Girl in line. ' It was a race of varying fortunes. Purser was unlucky in having to come round the outside of a big field, while Real' Girl might have done better in a smaller field, as she was shtWin at a vital stage of the last typ. Major Lind went in patches, but finished on welL Dillon Logan was beaten. only in the last 20 yards, , but no excuse can be offered, as the winner had to cover more ground over the last half-mile. Purser looks to be back \to near his best.

Win for X>ogal»en. . Logahten Was strongly jsuppoitedfor the Walwetu Handicap, end she never gave her backers ranch cause for alarm. She wasnot in the firet half-dozen for a mile, but she pot is some attractive work over the concluding stages, and won easily.. Achray, Arklow, Manco, Jewel Elect, and Oxford Queen were the early leaders, bat -when they commenced the final lap Arklow had taken 'the lead. Oxford Queen had ran Into third place, a»d LogaJeen was sixth. The latter improved her position .along the back, and was right up on the fence behind Achray and Oxford .Queen .afe they turned for home. The favourite drew away "at the' distance and ran home an easy winner- bjr a length from Jewel Elect, who finished very fast from the back to eat the tiring Achray oat of second money. "Bianco was fourth, Oxford Queen fifth, andj Llewellyn sixth. • ' t r. The winner's performance was an imSfovement on what site has previously own over the distance, Achray stopped, as he usually doe's, while Manco and Oxford Queen showed nospeedaY .the business' end. Llewellyn' should have be w closer up than sitth. He made a very fast run up the baekon the Ifwjfc circuit, and was interfered with at a .critical stage by.Hui* Maid, who broke in. front it him. < Bawell Pointer broke up at the start, failed to settle down, and was pulled up. >w l •' . ' r-' . V ' ' £ •" ■' Five-Horse Baee. _ The public had to pick the Taita Han-dicap-in one, 'Seven seratchisgs reducing the. field to' five runnels. Free Logan was made a,solid favourite) aficl had he gone off properly he would have won. Thfe favourite, who' had the seis vices of M. Holnjes, tangled at the start and lost easily ten lengths. Arthur Chimes led out from Windshield, with' a gap back to Free Logan and Bon, who was making up his rehandieap of 48yds very quickly. Going down the back stretch the last time Windshield' .headed Arthur Chimes, and two lengths further back Bon and. Free Logan were running together. At the distance Free Logan came with an electrifying run, but'failed to catch Windshield by two lengths. Arthur Chimes was a length back third. Bon /appeared to crossfire invfront at the .distance post, and Donald did not drive him out. Slogan was pulled up after covering two fur. longs, and returned lame, to the 'en. closure;, The winner showed Bopio improvement on her Manawatu form. She is a full sister to Free Advice.

A Promising Stayer The Palmer Handicap, a two miles race for unhoppled trotters, saw Biddy Parrish vindicate her defeat in the shorter race earlier in the day. She was a better favourite than Great Glee, and on this occasion stayed on - wfell. Blue and Gold, Great Way* Miss Leda, and' Biddy Parrish was the order for the first mile, with Ben Bingen and Merce Bingen five. lengths further back, and Great Glee and Peter' Eyre tailing off. Great Way had charge entering the final round, with Blue and Gold and Ben -1 Bmgen together, and Biddy Parrish and Merce Bingen closing up on the leaders At the half-mile post Ben Bingen had headed Great Way, and Merce Bingen had run into third place. Great Way broke across the top, and Ben Bingen led Merce Bingen and Biddy Parriah into the straight. Ben Bingen looked, to have the race ia ljattd till Tomkin-, s ? n 5 r ® n sht Biddy Parrish through, and 1 she finished strongly to win by a neck. I Merce Bingen showed fight all the way, but could not ,foot it wijh the leaders. »he was four lengths back in * third place, followed by Great Way, Miss I W e d», Great Glee, and Blue and Gold. ' The winner*s .performance was,.impressive, while Merce Bingen > gave promise of developing into a stayer. 'I Seottish Horse's SucOeas. 1 Major Lind recorded .one of his best! performances in the Dominion when hfeJ won the Becovery Handicap, from a fair «eld of Ho was nfever farther ' back than sOcond, and the final furloae I saw him win with a good, deal ia hand.

Brent Zolock began very smartly, and at the end ©f a furlong and a half had ran to,the front. Hewas attended by Major I4ad, Belle Lorrimer, 4 Liragli Neagh, Native Hero, and Zella. Zefia ran into third place down, th 6 back stretch, but Brent-Zolock stilUheld yhia advantage turning for home, "with Major Lind, Zella, and Lough JNeagh h&ndy. Major Lind* did; best in the nui to the judge. He overtook Brent Zolock a hundred yafda froin the post, and won easily by two lengths.

The crowd had begun to' cheer before the horses raced to the last fence, a Eoyal victory always being received with much joy: but Ambush 11. swerved badly at the jump, ana fell, and then Dumcree, the favourite, came on to win comfortably. The King, though naturally upset by the horse'B failure when victory seemed assured, merely remarked, "I hope Anthony (the rider) is not' hurt. Is he jptV . . x . Ever since its inception the National has always been associated with remarkable incidents. But perhaps one of the most sensational episodes connected with the big race was in 1915. That year Ally Sloper, ridden by Jack Anthony, was suspended at , a fence halfway round the course. Ilston, however, on whom Anthony 's brother had the mount, cannoned into Ally Sloper, with the result that the impetus was sufficient to get the horse going again, and then he went on- and won!

In 1919 Poetlilyn was i saved from certain disaster only by the presence of mind on the part of his jockey, Piggott. During the race Piggott saw Fairquo, who was just Id front of his mount, make a bad blunder, after which, with his jockey nearly off. his back, ho swerved right into Poethlyn's • path. Quickly getting alongside FarqUe, Piggott managed to seize the horse's jockey and fling him back into the saddle, with the result 'that Poethlyn continued on, and passed the post a winner. But for Piggott's clever piece of work the horse wonld never have won, '

New Zealand Horsed Victory. In recent years there have been occasions on which some New Zealand owners have ientertained the idea of sending their jumpers home to compete in the world's most famous cross-country race. It'will be remembered that a couple of seasons back, when Beau Oavalier w\ts taking all before him, his owner contemplated sending the horse Home, but subsequently the idea was abandoned. New Ze'aland, however, can take pride in the glory that it has produced, at least one winner of the Liverppol Grand National. In 1904, Moifaa, bred in Hawke's Bay by the well-known erstwhile rider, A. J. Ellingham, and owned by Mr Spencer Gollan, scored a brilliant win. He jumped in faultless style. throughout,, and . carried hia. 10-7 past the post eight lengths, in advance of Kirkland, ,who conceded the New Zgalander 31b.' It was a 'magnificent victory on' the part of Moifaa, and no doubt his brilliant fencing was a factor toward success, i Of the 28 starters that year, no fewer than 17 fell.

W DEFENCE OF THE COURSE. The last English mail brought advice that the National sqnine Defence League was to make a protest against the running of the Grand NationaL ' Mrs Matthew, secretary of the League, told a reporter; "It is a very cruel race. We decided to take this step after consulting a veterinary surgeon, who expressed the' opinion that it was not possible for the National Hunt Committee to put forward one point in favour of the Grand NationaL Percy Woodland,, the well-known trainer, who has ridden two Grand National winners, said: . The P e age of .fatalities or injuries to horses competing in the Grand National is much smaller than on any other course and does not compare with the hunting Jeld, where riders of M Bto ° e . stone are carried many miles fart]^ e ' J? an average run. That horses which have part* in a National soon re cover is be?ond dispute. A case in point is Melleray's/Belle, "cond in the r*ra last vear: - It was able to run second again in the SeottishGrand National within less than a month. Bobert Gore, who has trained several Grand National winners, said: 1 eon sider Aintree the safest-course in Bng land for both horses and. jockeys, be S they cannot take liberties with the fences In a« my long experience of the Grand National I have never had, a horso seriously hqrt in it.
