Reminders. Acceptances tor the South Canterbury Jockey Club's Winter Meeting will close at 9 p.m. on Monday. Nominations for the Oamaru Jockey Club's Winter Meeting will close at 8 p.m. on Tuesday. Owners and trainors are advised that the jumps in tho Hack and Hunters' Steopleehaso are brush fences only. Nominations for the Ashburton County EacLng Club's Winter Meeting will close at 8 p.m. on Tuesday. •Eailway Arrangementa. The Eailway Department advertises •particulars of special passenger train from Christchurch and reduced fares for the South Canterbury Jockey Club's races at Tirnaru on Saturday, Juno 18th, also that the 5.35 a.m. express train from Christchurch will convey passengers at special cheap fares, and will stop at Washdyke, connecting there with special train for the racecourse. Not Considered "Seasonable. The weight allotted Thurina in the Pareora Steeplechase at the forthcoming South Canterbury Jockey Club's Winter 3feeting, as compared with others in the race, including Valves, who beat him at Washdyke last month, and has won an open steeplechase since, has not met with the approval of his owner, and the gelding is not likely to fulfil his engagement. Croupier Doing Well. Although Croupier has no immediate engagements, the son of Surveyor is making excellent progress under Geo. Holland's guidance. This three-year-old lias furnished into <*i solid-looking horse, and promises to be -better than ever next season. So far Croupier has not been overtaxed in his work, but on the few occasions - that he has been sent along fast on the track he has clearly demonstrated that ho still retains his pace. Ho has been nominated for.the big spring events in Australia. Awapuni Meeting Off.

M a meeting of the committee of the Manawatu Racing Club, held last week, it was .decided, in view of the prevailing conditions, not to hold a Winter Meoting this year. The decision of the club to abindon the twoday fixture to have been held on July 30th and August 2nd will be received with regret, not only by those intimately connected with the sport, but by the racing public generally. Good Breeding. Forest Stag, who credited his ownertrainer, W. Stone, with a win and a second placing at Otak'i last week, is a four-year-old brown gelding by Royal Stag, (son of the Stonyhurst-bred Autumnus, a- great grandson of St. Simon)from Frisco Roso, a niaro by the 1907 New Zealand Cup winner, Frisco (a son of the. Hampton horse Earwig and imported in utero from America in 1903), from Forest Rose, by Forester (son of Puriri, by The Peer's brother Towton) from Rosa Bonheur, by Black Rose (son of imported Anteros, by Loiterer). This is a branch oftheWoodstock —Phoebe family, one of the earliest established lines itt New Zealand, having been founded when Woodstock was imported from New South Wales in 1852 by Mr H. Redwood and mated with Sir Hercules (3), whom Mr Redwood had in New Zealand fbr a 'period of five years. The result of that early mating w£s Phoebe, from whoni many iirstclass horses have descended. America's Crack Aider. Earle Sande, one of America's most popular jockeys of recent years, who gave up riding for, a- couple of seasons, made Ms reappearance at Jamaica (New York) on April ') 15th. He rode in only one race, and did not have the satisfaction- of scoring. His mount ran third in a field of four; Earlier in the day Sande refused a mount or two, preferring to reserve himself for something ho thought would give him a good winning ehance. Sande rode at 8-3, and it was anticipated that when the weather became warmer he would be ablo to do'B-0. In Memoriam. Phar Lap's memory is not to be allowed to die in America. A bronze memorial table in honour of the chestnut has been erected at the club entrance to the Tanfqran racecourse. A brief ceremony was to mark the unveiling of the tablet, which took place a little over a fortnight ago. • rrom Obscurity. The great.. Metropolitan Stakes, 2j miles, run at Epsom, iB the principal long-distance handicap of tho spring in England. As cabled; it was won; this year by the French-bred horse Roi de Paris (6-8), who cantered home ahead of Chelmarsn, on whom 8. Bonoghue said he never had a better "run in a race. A week bofore the Great Metropolitan Roi de Paris won a selling race at Newbury, and so little was thought of the performance that his owner was able to buy him inforlSOgns. At Leicester a little earlier Roi de Paris was beaten

in a selling raco by Dahra, who made only 90gns when he went to auction. Melbourne Opinions. Aladdin in the hurdle race and Claremore in the steeplechase are the only New Zealandors mentioned by Victorian sporting writers in their initial summing ! up of the weights for the V.R.C. Grand [Nationals. Aladdin is definitely not ! going and there is no word yet that \ Claremore will make the trip. Landmark, Lucess, Makeup, Prince Lu, and Standfast were well down the list in the quote for the hurdle race. Landmark, Makeup, and Copey were not quoted at all in the steeplechase, tho other New Zealanders being at long odds. The results at the Great Northern Meeting and the sailing announcement of Mr Corry's team and will no doubt alter the original market. Derby Betting. Cabled quotations on the English Derbv to Australian papers the day before the race showed the winner, April the Fifth, was sixth favourite at longish odds. Everything was at double figures but Orwell." who ruled a hot favourite. The second horse. Dastur, was fifth favourite. Dropping the Classics. At a special meeting of the general committee of the Wanganui Jockey Club, this week, it was decided not to run the Guineas race at the Spring Meeting to be held in September. In addition, there will be no Jackson Stakes at the Autumn Meeting next February. This mciuis that the club has dropped all three weight-for-age events—the New Zealand Eclipse Stakes, the Guineas, and the Jackson Stakes. Tho decision to cut out the Guineas and tho Jackson I Stakes was arrived at as the outcome j of a recommendation by the financo committee. It is a matter for regret that ' such races are going by the board, but Wanganui's position admits of no alternative. Financial loss has to bo avoided at all costs, but it is a discouraging outlook for breeders. The excessive Government taxation of racing must take its full share of the blame for the position in which clubs like Wanganui are at present financially situated. For Australia. Mr Boyd Davis must be bringing a fairlv large team of horses from England* to Australia. They were to have left last week. Although it was stated ho intended selling some prior to his departure, it is noticed that at Epsom on April 19th, he bought Springbud for 400 guineas for . his daughter, Miss Nancy Davis, and stated he was for Australia. Springbud, who is a three-year-old colt by Bhuidhaonach from Springshoot, won the Banstcad Selling Plate, six furlongs, on tho date mentioned, and it was. on going to auction after the raco that Mr Davis purchased him. As Springbud scored comfortably, and it'was his third successive win, it is only-a matter of his striking form to be very useful in. Australia. It was cabled that Mr Davis had been "whistling" his horses home m England.' Of course, that sort of thing quickly became a- joke*, and when Mr Davis commenced: to whistle to his horse, Signifier, in the' Derbyshire Handicap, at Derby, on April. 15th, there was immediately a pandemonium ot whistling, the 'shrill note of the horse s owner from. the. Press stand, boing deadened by the whistles from the bookmakers, ' their clerks, jockeys, stablebovs, and. others. Tho combined whistlin> had the desired effect, as Sigmher drew away at the finish and won by four lengths. "When Mr Davis comes to Australia he' .will 'afford racegoers some amusement if he- inheres to his fad, and if he whistles-, for a, horse in one race and not-in another.,Ve are suro to hear the comment, "That-wasn't a trier—you didn't, hoar Davis whistle." Mr Davis will haVe to keep whistling all the time in ordef to avoid suspicion.

Branding Of Horsos. . .The regulation regarding the branding of/all'hdrses prior to registration, in Australia is of interest to several New Zealand "owners at present and the following information received by Mr A. Louisson from Mr A. Loddon Yuile, Registrar of Racehorses, Sydney, will be useful: An amendment to Australian Rule of Racing 6 (a) which came into force on March Ist, 1932, reads as follows:— "Subject as hereinafter provided no horse except a foal or yearling shall be eligible to be entered for anv race at any registered Meeting unless "the name of such- horse shall have been registered with either the Registrar of Racehorses or a Deputy-Regis-trar, and no horse' shall be ao registered unless it shall have been previously branded for identification _ purposes. Provided that the 'committee' may exempt any horse from such branding for such period as it may allow." From this rule, it will "be seen that no definite system of branding is required. So long las an animal is plainly, and legibly branded, that is sufficient New Zealand horses that have ' been already registered in Australia prior to the enforcing of branding are, of course, exempt. Not Always Successful. In Australia Statesman is tho latest instance of a stallion being gelded after an important win—l92B Melbourne Cup —and then failing as a racehorse. America has had one or two marked instances of tho kind. Mad Play won £27,300 for H. F. Sinclanyand in 1925 was rated one of the best handicap horses in America. He was later sold for £IB,OOO for stud purposes. Unluckily he proved impotent, and was returned to racing, winning a couple of races in 1928. He was ag\in retired, and, after being gelded, was brought back to the turf last year. He ran eight times without winning, and was sold for £25. His new owners gave him • best after a couple of runs. Whiskory, the 1927 Kentucky Derby winner, was also a stud failure, and was again trained. After racing unsuccessfully in 1929 he was unsexed and then won a couple of races, finishing las career as a saddle horse. I Profitable Purchases. I Anuuon Ba is the greatest winner in slakes at Randwick this season, his total being £8721, inclusive of the £250 breeder's premium attached to the Derby, saya the Sydney "Referee." . Mr O. Sheath gave a stiff price (3500 guineas) for Amnion Ra, but when ho bought him he was aware ho waß getting 'a high-class galloper. Ou the whole, it seems a better proposition to pay well for a "made" horse than risk four figures in purchasing a yearling. It rarely happens, however, that anyone will part with a potential Derby winner, no matter how tempting the price. Sir Sam. liordern displayed acumen in buying Violoncello and Pilliewinkie after they had proved themselves, but ho had no cause to regret partnership in the purchase of a lOOOgus yearling. That was the Melbourne Cup winner, Artilleryman. There have, of course, been blanks among horses that were bought at high prices on the strength of their wins. Glare certainly has not given his Australian owner any cause tov satisfaction. Another high-priced New Zealand purchase in Runnymede proved costly for Mr T. C. Trautwein, who also has cause to be somewhat disappointed with Chide. Luck—and there is such a thing —is a great factor in purchasing horses, whether j-oung or old.

Tlie Englisli Derby. Cables to Australian papers about the Derby last week are amplified compared with those tliat reaped New Zealand. The race was a triumph for the bookmakers, as Orwell was the hottest favourite since Lord Bosebery won the race with Cicero in 1895. Orwell was revealed as a non-stayer, and was beaten a quarter of a mile from home. The long-striding April the Fifth caught Dastur and Miracle in the last furlong, Lane riding a perfectly-judged race. •H least. 10,000 winners and losers later celebrated the Derby in West End hotels and restaurants. Lane, the winning jockey, gave a dinner to lio jockeys at the Piccadilly Hotel. The tables were decorated with pink carnations and black Tibbon, Mr Walls's colours. The King gave the usual dinner to the Jockey Olnb at Buckingham Palace. , . ~ Al Mr Tom Walls, owner ot April the Fifth, winner of the Derby in England, was considering the closing of his racing establishment about a year ago, when ho was recuperating from a serious illness. At the time he could not have known that in April the Fifth he had a champion in the making, so that in the circumstances a decision to continue was extremely fortunate. Prior to the limning of the Two Thousand Guineas, April the Fifth had done_ little to warrant his inclusion in the list of Derby acceptors. After his finishing effort in that, race, however, he ap-. peared in a different light, and it was not surprising to see his name figuring in the prc-post betting on the race. Owners' Hopes. Apropos of the English Derby, it is interesting to read of happenings at the Derby luncheon held last, year, in conformity with long-established practice, at the'rooms of the London Press Club. Mr Edgar Wallace presided, and challenged owners present to inform the company what their trainers had told them about their Derby candidates, Lord Derby, who was first to respond, said he had" no representative in the race because his trainer thought so little of his three-year-olds that he withdrew them all when one of the minor forfeits had to be declared. The Aga Khan said he had been advised, while hoping for the best, to expect the worst; but K. C. Dawson, then tho Prince's trainer, said Pomino d'Api could stay and liked the Epsom gradients. He fancied the colt's chance, and would bo terribly disappointed if his hopes were not fulfilled. Pomme d'Api ran sixth.

Lord Rosebery, -whose colt, Sandwich, ran third, confessed that he always turned to the newspapers when he wanted to know what chance any of his horses had of winning. He confessed himself ono of the few owners really pleased when his horses were tipped. Lord Rosebery is unlucky, for he again ran third this year with Miracle.. However, Miracle may follow in the path of Sandwich and win the St. Legcr. Mr 3. A. Dewar,- whose Pharop colt, Camoronian, won, reported that the colt, his trainer, and !'. Fox, the jockey, were all fit and well, and ho had the assurance of the trainer that Camcronian had given evory satisfaction in his work up to a mile and a half. Sir John Rutherford had nothing to add to tho comment of a turf writer who had predicted that Orpen would run a great race. Orpen ran second, bo that the evening's forecasts were well on tho mark. ,

Reminder. Acceptances for . the light harness events of tho South Canterbury Jockey Club's programme close on Monday at 9 p.m. Events at Oamaru. Nominations for the trotting events at the Oamaru Jockey Club's Winter Meeting, on July 2nd, close on Tuesday next at 8 p.m. Tho first is the Oamaru Trot Handicap (harness), one mile and a half class, 3min 45sec; the second is the Waikaura Trot Handicap (harness), one mile and a quarter, class 3min 2see. Each race has £IOO in stakes allotted co it. Railway Arrangements. A special passenger train will leave Christchurch at 9.15 this morning for theAshburton racecourse siding picking up passengers at Addington, Sockburn, Templeton, Rolleston, Dunsandel, and Rakaia. It is due to arrive at the siding at 10.52 ' a.m., and the return journey will 1)0 commenced at 4.40 p.m. Small but Useful Team. The Rangiora trainer, W. Barron., has a small, but very useful team to represent him at Ashburton to-day. He has Amonos, Dillon Logan, and Wild Guy engaged, and the trio seem well enough placed to suggest that they will race prominently. Brackets at Ashburton. Horses to be bracketed on the totalisator at Ashburton to-day are:—Ash-' burton County Handicap: Ayrmont Chimes and Red Shadow; Grand Canyon, Sunny Bob, and Pluto; Cyone. Harvest Child, and Daphne, do Oro; Great Parrish and Great Logan; New Zealand Sapling Stakes: Indianapolis and Cloudy Range; Olive Rey and Nobleman."Steward*' Handicap: Mickey Audubon and Gay Faroe. Tinwald Handicap: Hard Words and Flossie Harvester. Winter Handicap: Awa-iti, Sir Guy, and Morning Sun; Country King and Wilnia Dillon; Logaieen and Nelson's Victory.

Lorelei Injured. Lorelei will not start in the mtventh race at Ashburton to-day. While attached to the sulky ho bolted from his trainer at Ashburton yesterday and was exit about the legs. His First Representative. The ex-Victorian trainer, O. Manritz, who becarno associated with Mr J. It. McKerizie's stable and stud a few weeks ago, will be represented by Tarpayer in the classic fit Ashburton today. Lame. 'Muriel do Oro, who id-engaged in the principal event at Ashburton to-day, had the misfortune to pick up a nail yesterday morning. Sho'became very lame, but the ailment improved as the day progressed. The mishap is likely to projudico her prospects. Record 'May be Broken. The existing record i'oi the Sapling Stakes is 3min 25 3-ssee, registered by Arethusa in her winning year. With « good track to-day, the quality of this season's two-year-olds is such that there io every likelihood of that time going by the board. New Quarters. • The imported stallion, Ileal tivtj, who was purchased a few days ago by F. G. Holmes, is now located at that trainer's establishment. Question of Colours. One of tho remits to the Sew Zealand ■ Trotting Conference from the Trotting Association is to the effect that every owner should race his horses in his own registered At present it is optional for an owner to use either his own or his trainer's registered colours. He lias to register colours even if they arc not brought into use.

ASHBUKTON T.C.

TODAY'S PROGRAMME.

SAPLING STAKES FIELD.

The Ashburton Trotting Club will hold its "Winter Meeting to-day, when the season's only two-year-old classic, the New Zealand Sapling Stakes, will be decided. Seventeen juveniles will take their place in the field, and there will no doubt be a stirring contest. The fields in the majority of cases have filled vory well, and as the track is in good order very interesting racing should be witnessed. A. special railway service has been arranged, and a train will leave Christchurch at 9.15 a.m., arriving at the racecourse siding about 10.52 a.m. The return train will loave at 4.40 p.m. The programme is as follows:--11.30 a.m. — LONGBEACH HANDICAP. Of .10') >ots. 3min Slsec class. Ouo mile and a half.

In tho Longbeach Handicap the first to appeal is Amonos, who ran well at his last start to finish fourth to Modern Girl, Our Bingon, and Fairyland. The three placed horses on that occasion have subsequently won, bo Amonos must be considered, ttaelaim usually begins very slowly, but with an ordinary getaway she should be close at tho finish. Silk Coat and Norman Fox are improvers, and Don Giovanni commands a good deal of speed, but most faith may bo placed in Amonos, Silk Coat, and Haclaim. 12.10 p.m.— TRIAL HANDICAP, In harness. Of 100 sovs. 3roin -Ibsen class. One roilo and a half.

Imposter . • »cr Nineteen of the twenty acceptors for the Trial Handicap are on the front mark, and a lot will depend on the draw for positions. Impostor, favourito lit. his last start, finished fourth. He raced well as long as his condition lasted, and ho should bo better for that outing. Directum has been doing nicely in his training work, and Bt. Felix has been racing well enough recently to suggest an early win. War Officer and Botty Wrack look to be the best of tho others. Impostor may bo preferred to St. Felix and Directum.

12.50 p.m.— ASHBTJRTON COUNTY HANDICAP, In harness. Of 300 govs. 4min S'Jsec tines. Two mile?.

The Ashburtou County Handicap is the principal handicap event of the day, and one likely to result in a good race. A reproduction of Grand Canyon's form of last Saturday would make him a worthy contender, and ho may do best of the limit horses. Nimble Direct also raced well last week, and his prospects cannot be overlooked. Dillon Logan may bo just about ready to show Ms best, and Belinda, in her only start at Addington, was racing well when she met with trouble in the concluding threo furlongs. She appears to be back to form, and should be one of those in a forward position at the post. Gold Country might win, but he cannot be considered on his disappointing effort last week. The back-markers do not make any special appeal. When the totalisator ceases business for the race Belinda and Grand Canyon may carry the bulk of the r ~ney, but a good effort may be expected from Dillon Logan, who may not bo eo much favoured in the betting.

1.30 p.m.— NEW ZEALAND SAPLING STAKES, Of 850 sovs. One mile and a half. J, Mcßride's b £ H«y s P OO j Hay do or ° Logan. Spec Mrs M. Harrall's b c Match King, Matchlight—Jenny land D.

Connolly's b c Royal de 010, Rey de Oro —Jingle—L'luvin. de Oro mare Only eight of the seventeen acceptor* for the New Zealand Sapling Stakes have yet raced, and unless something very much out of tho ordinary is hidden in the ranks of tho unraeod division, tho winner appears to be included in those who have shown a littlo form. Of the horses in this category, none has 'shown moro promise than the bracketed pair Indianapolis and Cloudy Range. The former has been favourite fo.r tho classic since ha won at his first outing, tho Selma Handicap at Ashburtou last month. He has not raced since, but his performance was most impressive, and in tho face of what has been seen it is difficult to select one to challenge him for his position as favourite. Perhaps he may be extended by Cloudy Eange, who has raced well in both his starts. He has tho fastest race figures against bis name for one of his' age this season, and he is a worthy second string. Golden Direct raced quito well in his only effort until he met with trouble, and he has iniproved since then. He can be relied upon to be in the light most of tho way. Match King pleased in hiß only start, which was at Oaniaru, but the throe already mentioned make more appeal. The best of the remainder of the raced division looks like the Southland colt, Eighteen Carat. Of those who will bo making their first appearance in a race to-day, Nobleman, Ronald Derby,

and Derby Thorpe may show to best advantage. The Indianapolis-Cloudy Range bracket will undoubtedly touch a very limited price, and should finish in the money. Golden Direct and Ronale? Derby may offer the most opposition. ) 2.10 p.m.— ACTON HANDICAP. j In harness. Of 125 sovs. jimiii 1 class. One mile and a half. j

Nothing in the Acton Handicap reads better than Lord Leslie, and he and Great Chenault look easily the best of those from scratch back to 36yds. Neither Manoeuvre nor Worthy King can bo considered out of the race oven from 60yds behind. With Lord Leslie's impressive Easter win in mind, he may be the one in most demand, but Great Chenault, a winner at, his last start, Manoeuvre may also lie well up in the list. 4.10 p.m.— STEWARDS' HANDICAP, In harness. Of 150 sovs. 4min 52soc class. Two miles.

A winner on the same course previously, and a good stayor, Modem Girl should keep the opposition in tho Stewards' Handicap very busy. First Wrack and Gay Pareo may race best of the remainder. S.SO p.m.— TINWALD HANDICAP. In harness. Of 100 sors. Srain 40sec class. One milo and a half,

Tho Tinwald Handicap promises to bo ono of tho most keenly fought out contests of tho day. Chen-wood, Rcylena, arid To Kinga are recent winners, while };ood form has been shown by Hard Words, Lorelei, Wild Guy, Gold Spear, Plain Silk, and Aimworthy. Wild Guy may prove to be the best. Ho showed great speed when raced over two miles at Ashliurton last month, but he failed to stay on. This distance should suit him. The finish, may be confined to Wild Guy, To Kinga, and Chenwood.

4.10 p.m.— WINTER HANDICAP. In harness. Of 175 sovb. !)min 2oßec claes, Ono mile and a half.

Nothing at Addington looks better than Groat Parrish, but ho will have to show an improvement on last week's form to be given more than an outside chance iu tho Winter Handicap. However, he usually races best on a grass track. Editor cannot bo far away from ix win, and Mountain Oro is a prospect. Somo Guy represents winning form, and ho should give a good account of himself. Nelson's Victory has won on tho same course before, and the fact of his being left in tho race in preference to Sunny Morn from the same stable seems to be a guido to his chance. If he begins well ho should make amends for his poor efforts last week. Porhaps Great Parrish, Nelson's Victory, and Somo Guy will dispute the final issue.
