Nominations for the Dunedin Jockey Club's spring meeting will close at 5 p.m. on Friday next. Spectacular Jumping. DonMose (G. Barr) and Tea Garden <W. Pascoe) gave a very impressive display over four hurdles at Riccarton yesterday. Tea Garden was kept back early and followed Don Jose over the first two fences, but he then joined his mate and the pair crossed the last fence practically abreast. Don Jose jumped each fence fast and cleanly, and now that he has settled down and Mined confidence at the new game he ■will win some more good races. This wag Tea Garden's first effort with a companion, and his showing was very satisfactory. Both are to fulfil engagements at Ashburton. Snccessf til Breeding. A four-year-old gelding by Robespierre from Sweet Beauty was this week sold by H. Nurse to the trotting owner-trainer J. S. Shaw, of Addingtott, who visited Riccarton with him yesterday. Sweet Beauty is a 12-year-old mare by Greyspear from Sweet Smile, dam of Light Hearted. King's Jester, Giggleswick. and Polydora, and the gelding closely resembles Light Hearted, who is also by Greyspear. He has not long been in active commission, but has shown a good deal of promise on the track. Kamea Claimed. At the yearling sales at Trentham in January a colt by The Ace from Rose "Wlllonyx, sister to Town Major, was purchased by Mr E. Moss, of Sydney, lor 30 guineas, and later handed over to F. D. Jones. The youngster has been broken in and ridden, but will t># put aside until early next year. Recently his owner wrote asking for cither No Trumps or Two No Trumps for a name for the youngster. The •former was not available, and Two •No TTrumps has been claimed for him. Others in the same stable lately named ar>: Amddivad, a three-year-old by Robe/spjerre from Chaeronia; Sibilla, a £OUt*year-old by Silverado from Zaragpta; Safety Zone, a two-year-old by British Empire from Zaragoza; Custodian* tl two-year-old by Lord Warden from Monoxide, and Control, a two-year-old by British Empire from 'Windshield. BMb to Work. Jfetal Bird has been recommissfoned by R. Ellis, who also has Delice, Bobin Hood, and Golden Dart in advanced order. Wise Choice, who did sibi race well last season, has been enjoying a spell for some weeks. IWtirement Postponed. fast Passage is still an inmate of *h« Chokebore stable, and it is intended shortly to put her into work again. In the meantime the proposal to put her to the stud has been ■helved. _ iCtataff to Waaganui. • Tentative arrangements have been made to race Heather Glow and Copyist at the Wanganui meeting on September 21 and 23, and A. Eastwood Win) north to ride them. Eastwood lids been engaged for the season to ride for the Chokebore stable at weights that will preclude the first horseman, A. E. Ellis, from taking the mounts. Interesting Comparison. In the Islington Handicap, one mile and a quarter, on the second day of the Grand National meeting, Cricket Bat, receiving 81b from Shatter, filled second place to Palantua, Shatter finishing Jn fifth place. On the third day of the meeting Cricket Bat was set to give Shatter 21b in the Heathcote Handicap. The former won and Shatter did not start. In the Ashburton Handicap, one mile and a quarter, to be decided on Saturday next, Cricket Bat has to give Shatter 41b, or a diftteamce of 121b in Shatter's favour as (compared with the imposts when they Oast met over that journey. W» far P. Riddle. Marquitas, winner of the September handicap at Canterbury Park on SatIwday, ws a five-year-old gelding by Maapie from Saintly Ida, and is Inuned by P. Kiddie. <OL Pronounced Failure. Strephon carried all before him in J&ttftralia before Mr S. Green sent jjbSm to England, hoping to win the kaoot Gold Cup with him. Strephon tatßOt win a race of any sort in EngfmtL He was one of the four starters in the Duchy Plate at Pontefract in mkfiST, and finished at the tail-end of tea flald. An English reader of the FJwntralasian w writes as follows to HSfclron.'V-"In case you should not ■M the information, I thought you inlg&t lllce to know that Strephon has

descended to small apprentice races, and cannot win them. He ran in a small 12 furlongs apprentice race at Pontefract, and was last of four; and %vas last of three in a 10 furlongs race of the same calibre at Carlisle before that. He is now in a small stable presided over by Russell somewhere in the north of England. It is a sad comedown for a Melbourne Cup and Victoria Racing Club Derby winner, and I can only think he was run before having been thoroughly acclimatised, as was the case with that good horse Noctuiform several years ago." Epsom Handicap. Sydney reports state that Chatham, who has now won the Warwick Stakes and the Canterbury Stakes in succession, and each time establishing a track record, has been heavily supported to win the Epsom Handicap. He is now equal favourite for the big mile race with Bronze Hawk. The New Zealander Inflation has also been strongly supported for the Epsom Handicap. Wellington Office-bearers. Messrs E. L. Riddiford (president), J W. Abbott (vice-president), and H. P. F. Blundell. B. H. Edkins, W. Higgins, N. McLean, and Dr. H. A. H. Gilmer (stewards) are the nominations for office-bearers of the Wellington Racing Club for the year 1933-34 As those nominated do not exceed the number required, no election will be necessary. There are 13 nominations for the position of auditor, and a ballot will be taken. Success for Royal Stable. His Majesty continues to have an improved season in England, and the latest success for the Royal colours was another win by The Abbot, a three-year-old colt by Abbots Trace, in the Sussex Stakes, one mile, worth £lOl6 to the winner, at the Goodwood meeting towards the end of July. The victory was the Royal stables eighth for the season, and brought its term's stake winnings up to £6933. The King was not present to see The Abbot score, as he was aboard his yacht Britannia, which had an important engagement at Southampton. The win was The Abbot's fourth this season. Again the generalship of the King's jockey, J. Childs. largely contributed to the success, which was at good odds. The colt is not engaged in the St. Leger, in which, however, his Majesty's Whitehead still remains. Preparations Checked. Recent mishaps have put two of the Takanini youngsters temporarily out of commission. High Crest hit a stake while working a fortnight ago, and has since been on the easy list. Peter s Pride fell on the root of a tree while running in the paddock, and sustained a cut on his neck that required five stitches. The injury is not expected to do other than retard his preparation for a week or two. but it is unfortunate, as the half-brother to Cylinder has been shaping as well as any of the youngsters trained there. High-Class Representation. It is pleasing to see that the Wanganui Guineas, after all the controversy concerning it which led to its temporary elimination, will this year draw some good class three-year-olds (says the "Dominion"). In fact, except for Dole and Golden Hair, who are in 1 Sydney, and Fracas, who will be at I Dunedin. the field contains all the top- ! liners of last season's youngsters. Jmpasto, Princess Doreen, Red Manfred, and Midian all represent the best two-year-olds of last year, while Spiral Tavern Knight, and Porotiti are all likely improvers. Midian, Spiral, and and Tavern Knight have the additional advantage of having had a recent race. Impasto won the Champagne S cakes at Ellerslie last autumn and since then he has been gelded. He has been doing nicely in his work and a race at Marton will sharpen him up for the classic. It seems doubtful if Princess Doreen will be at her best, but Red Manfred should strip in good order. There will probably be one or two dropping out before the day of the race, but the material is there for an excellent contest. L. H. Hewitt. Information is to hand from a private source to the effect that L. H. Hewitt has left India for England, where he intends to start a training stable. Hewitt is on the way to earn a title among the most travelled men in the racing game. About 30 years ago he was one of New Zealand's great riders, at a period when there were some very capable horsemen in the Dominion. He was one of the early exponents of the crouch seat, but he was, in addition, a live wire on a horse. He had a wonderful run of successes m the colours of Mr G. G. Stead, while he also did a lot of riding for Sir George Clifford. At the spring meeting of the Canterbury Jockey Club in 1904 he rode 14 winners. A few years later he wertt to England, and he was riding in Germany on the eve of the Great War, being fortunate to get out of the country. He returned to New Zealand and won the New Zealand Derby in 1916 on The Toff. A few years later he turned up in India, where he established himself as a trainer, making a name in that department. Now, urged by his success in India, he has decided to try his fortune once more in England, this time as a trainer, and' given the opportunity, he may be heard of turning out winners. There will be many New Zealanders who will be glad to learn later that he is doing well in England, for the mercurial "Tod" has a wide circle of friends in the Dominion. Particulars of cheap fares and train arrangements for the races to be held at Ashburton on Saturday, September 16, are advertised in this issue. A special horse train will leave Christchurch at 9.15 a.m., and a special passenger train at 10.25 a.m.

TROTTING NOTES j I Reminders. Acceptances for the Hawke's Bay J Trotting Club's annual meeting, to be j held at Wellington on Saturday of | next week, will close on Monday at 5 j p.m. i Acceptances for the trotting events at the Ashburton County Racing Club's spring meeting will close on Tuesday at 8 p.m. Nominations for the trotting events on the Kurow Jockey Club's programme will close next Wednesday at Nominations for the Methven Trotting Club's annual meeting will close next Thursday at 8 p.m. Looks Likely Trospect. Grand Finale, who won a mile and a quarter race at the Christchurch Hunt Club's meeting a few weeks ago, on that occasion registered 2min 52sec in comfortably beating Agile and Lone Derby into the places. This must be considered a good performance, as the track was not conducive to the registering of fast times. At New Brighton last Saturday Grand Finale finished fifth to Warboat, Midnight Sun, Marvin Bingcn, and Betty Wrack over a mile and a quarter, after haying started from a 3min mark, so his chance to-day at Wellington from a j 3min ssec mark should give him a great opportunity of again reaching the winning list. Scratched Yesterday. Craganour was scratched for the Wellington Handicap at 10.30 a.m. yesterday. A Very Useful Pair. It is a long time since Mr Penalty has shown winning form, but his display in finishing fourth at New Brighton last Saturday draws attention to his prospects in the events confined to trotters to be decided at the Wellington meeting to-day. It was on the Hutt Park course that Mr Penalty was last returned a winner at the trotting gait, but he has won several races as a pacer since then. His trainer, C. S. Donald, has not won a race this season, but through the agency of Mr Penalty and Arabond he appears to be favourably placed to-day, and he should have his name placed on the winning list as the result of the Wellington meeting. Novices at Hutt Tark. Among the novices who will make a first appearance at the Wellington meeting to-day are Flintlock and Chronicler. The former is a five-year-old gelding by Nelson Bingen from Kate Zolock, so a half-brother to the speedy sprinter Brent Zolock, and Chronicler is a four-year-old gelding by Author Dillon from Hydaspcs. A Possibility. Mabel Chimes was well supported to win at her last start at Ashburton, but the field had not gone far before she was brought down, together with several other runners. The accident prevented a true line to her form being given, but her solid support in that race is indicative of good form having been shown in her training work. Has Good Form. With the exception of his performance in the New Zealand Saplmg Stakes Gun Junior was seen to good advantage in all his races of last season, and his public showings were such that he looks to hold a very good chance of returning to the winning list at Wellington—that is, if he produces his early two-year-old form. He will be the first of the more prominent threc-ycar-olds to make an appearance in the present season. Three Representatives. R B. Berry will have three representatives at the Wellington meeting to-day, and all are in the right order to give forward showings. Perhaps the most likely of the trio is Lilian Bond who raced in brilliant fashion at the Nelson meeting held at Greymouth in June. On the first day she was beaten by half a length by Ruin, but on the second day she won the Railway Handicap of a mile and a quarter in 2min 48 2-ssec. Although the track was very fast on that occasion this was a very fine performance, as the placed horses were Ganmetal and Ruin, while Key Spec was fourth. Ihe last-named was then giving Lilian Bond a start of 12 yards, but whereas Lilian Bond has not since raced, Key Spec has a win over a mile and a quarter to his credit. Rcy Spec and Lilian Bond will meet from the same mark at Wellington to-day, and this pair promises to play an important part in engagements at Hutt Park. May be Doubtful. If Modern Girl leaves the mark correctly in her races at Wellington to-day she may give a good account of herself, but although she has trotted well in her track work of late, and is in forward order, she has on several occasions been disinclined to leave the mark at her correct gait. Failure to commence fast will be the main drawback to her chances of returning a dividend. Attractive Programme. For the Oamaru Trotting Club's meeting to be held on Labour Day a most attractive programme has been framed, the sum of £1760 being offered in stakes. The principal events are the Oamaru Handicap, of 500 sovs, for 4min 29sec class horses, the Weston Handicap, a 2min 45sec class, one mile and a quarter, of 300 sovs, and the Derby Trial, of 250 sovs, a 2min 59sec class, one mile and a quarter event for three-year-olds. Other races on the programme are the Waitaki Handicap and the Improvers' Handicap, for unhoppled trotters, both of a mile and a half, the classes being 3min 45sec and 3min 50sec respectively. The Dash Handicap is a 2min 53sec class mile and a quarter, the Rcdcastle Handicap a 3min 35sec class mile and a half, and the Trial Handicap a 3min 45sec class one mile and a half. No race on the programme is of less value than 135 sovs, and all are to be run in harness. Improvement Expected. Since she raced last at the Canterbury Park Trotting Club's June meeting, El Merit has made considerable improvement under the care of E. C. McDermott. Last week she trotted a very fine mile and a half in her training work, and is not likely to be neglected in her engagements at Wellington to-day. DOUBTS ABOUT WINOOKA AMERICAN SCEPTICISM (Received September 8, 9.31 p.m.) NEW YORK, September 7. Referring to statements that Winooka's connexions are anxious to match the Australian horse against Equipoise, Mr C. B. Whitney, owner of Equipoise, said: "I do not think there is a public demand for a race between Equipoise and Winooka. The owners of Winooka have not communicated with me at all, but I would not want to have Equipoise take part in a race that would be one-sided and would have nothing to recommend it except that it would have an international flavour." Tom Healcy, trainer of Equipoise, expressed the opinion that if a challenge were given the race should be a mile, in view of the fact that Equipoise recently won the Saratoga Cup at one mile and three-quarters and is now training for the Jockey Club Gold Cup of two miles. He said that on the basis of Winooka's single American appearance he believed that Equipoise could beat him in any race from "six furlongs to six miles." Other racing men say that if Winooka would beat one horse of known calibre the turf world in the eastern

WELLINGTON T.C. TO-DAY'S PROGRAMME THE FIELDS REVIEWED The Wellington Trotting Club will hold its sprinjl meeting at Hutt Park to-day. There is a strong representation of Canterbury horses, and the meeting v/iIL be well attended by sportsmen from local centres. The fields are not large, but there is sufficient material of good quality to ensure a good day's racing. Chief interest will be centred in the Bollard Memorial Handicap, but the appearance of several very promising novices will "dd interest to the fixture, and the form of these horses will be keenly observed in view o£ the many meetings which will be decided during the spring. The programme, with prospects for the different events is given below:— 12.10 p.m.— .NAI NAI HANDICAP, of ]:;<) sow. ".mm .ilisec class. Trottn-6. Ono m.le and a half. Blue and Cio'd Her Mr IV,,ally .. -' Kl M.-ri! -. >■<■' Kiit'ilvs •• •'■'' .Modern Girl .. VI Wah •■ 3b. If Modem Girl were to be relied vpon to £'o away correctly she would probablv win the Nai Nai Handicap, but of late she has reverted to her f ,]d ideas of galloping off the mark. The horse which appears to be coming into form again is Mr Penalty, who finished very well in fourth place at New Brighton last Saturday. Of the others El Merit, who has shown improved form in her work, is likely to be best supported. Favouritism is likely to be disputed by Mr Penalty and Modern Girl. 12.50 p.m.— HUTT PARK TKIAL HANDICAP, of !"0 sovn. 3min losee clubs. One mile and a half.

'- There is likelv to he sniritod bettin" in the Hutt Park Trial Handicap, on account of the appearance of some of the most promising novices in commission. Agile, who has been sixconsecutive times in the money, will bo in receipt of solid sunport. while Bland ford, who ran fourlh at his first and onlv start to date, has improved since, and will be benefited from the race experience, promises to have a following. Lone Derby finished third at his last, start, but he may be peen to better advantage over a mile and a quarter later in the day. Mabel Chimes will corns into consideration, while Modern Lady has shown encouraging form, and Portlight will not be without friends. General Wrack has not left the mark correctly in his last two starts, but if he does so this time he should run a good race. He is too doubtful, however. On performances last season Guy Junior is entitled to most respect of the whole field, and although his last effort in the New Zealand Sapling Stakes was not very reassuring, that was the only b;'d race of his career. When a final decision is arrived at the chances of Guy Junior, Agile, and Blandford arc those likely to be favoured most. t.T.O p.m.— BOLLARD MKMOPIAI. HANDICAP, o: ?.">0 rove. 4min .15r.ee clafli.

Pursesraced very well at Addington last month, and a slight improvement on that form will make him a dangerous horse to account for. Arabond indicated at New Brighton last Saturday bv his fine finishing effort in fourth place that he is fast approaching his best form again. When well, C. S. Donald's representative is a good nerformer, and his showing of last Saturdav suggests that ho is near lu's best. Taking a line through that form he should account for most of this field. He is likely to strike very strong opposition from Avernus on the same mark. This horse raced exceptionally towards the close of last season, and was going well in front in the Queen Mary Handicap at Addington last month when horses coming up on the outside squeezed him back three furlongs from home. He did not show much dash in his later engagement at the meeting, but he has proved himself a good one, and he will be expected to run a very prominent race. Raydus showed winning form last month, and was noticed finishing on well in a two mile race, but nevertheless he appeals more as a sprinter than he does as a stayer. John Jinks and Master Roy both look better propositions than Meteor from the same mark, 24 yards. John Jinks raced solidly at Addington, without showing the good form of Master Roy, who won on the second day over two miles and finished a very good fourth to Blue Mountain on the concluding day. Indianapolis was second in the race in question. Although 3G yards behind, Ngingongingo is not set an impossible task, and at least he should beat Wilma Dillon from the same mark. Recent form suggests the chances of Master Roy, Avernus, and Arabond as the best. 2.10 p.m.— KAILWAY HANDICAP, of LW sovs. 3min IJOscc class. One mile and a half. Lilian Bond .. scr Lord Leslie .. PPricckss .. scr Special Sun .. 1' Bey Spco .. scr Chenwood .. 21 Boyal Chenault acr Key Spec, winner of the four-year-old race at Addington last month, will probably start favourite for the Railway Handicap, and his recent performance suggests that he will be a difficult horse for the others to dispose of. The Lilian Bond—Lord Leslie bracket will carry good support, while Chenwood may do best of the remainder. A favourite trio may be Rey Spec, Lilian Bond, and Chenwood. 2.50 p.m.— WILFOKD HANDICAP TKU'T. of L>o sovs. 4inin SCsec class. Trotters. Two miles. Blue and Gold scr Mr Penalty .. rfi FA 'Merit .. scr Katnta .. <'.r> .Modern Girl .. 12 Wab .. GO Real Belle .. -M Real Belle is the newcomer in the Wilford Handicap, the remainder of the field claiming an engagement in the opening event. Form in the first race will be keenly watched, and a line can be taken from that. Mr Penalty and Modern Girl should race well again, but Real Belle is likely to cause them some trouble, and the order at the finish may be Real Belle. Mr Penalty, and Modern Girl. states would consider him seriously. Many sceptics are inclined to think that Winooka's management are making an effort to capitalise on Phar Lap's reputation, which was promptly recognised in America. PILLOW FIGHT'S RACE (Received September 3, 9.20 p.m.) SEATTLE, September 1. Pillow Fight will make his debut at the Longacres course to-morrow in the Firenze Handicap, of six furlongs. Three others are entered. Pillow Fight to-day cantered the distance in lmin 19sec, moving steadily in spite of the wet going.

3.30 p.m.— SHABP.E HANDICAP, of 100 sovs. Smin 7.3 cc clas3.

As is the case with several other races earlier form will give an indication but there is one newcomer who is likely to give a very good account of himself, Grand Finale. A winner at the Christchurch Hunt Club's meeting over a mile and a quarter, he has raced only once since then, being at New Brighton last Saturday, where he finished fifth when racinr' five seconds out of his class. He appears to hold excellent prospects. Lone Derby will probably race to better advantage over the shorter distance, as he was third over a mile and a quarter at Riccarton. Investors will be guided by the result of the earlier race of similar class, but failing any outstanding form being shown there is a likely trio in Grand Finale, Lone Derby, and Blandford. •1.10 p.m.— WELLINGTON HANDICAP, of 150 sovs. •Jmin ISscc class.

V2 Crafanour will not contest the Wellington Handicap, and Blue Mountain ib likely to be in very firm demand. The Winehmore-trained gelding displayed excellent form at the recent Addington meeting, where he won two races over two miles, and as he can sprint as well as stay, he appears to have very bright prospects. Meteor inav do better over this distance than ovcV the two miles of the principal race, and Ron on 12 yards raced well over a mile and a quarter last month, when he finished third in both the races won by Indianapolis, Vesuvius and Silver de Oro being the horses to divide them. At the same handicap Silver de Oro may again be expected to finish in front, and as she appears to be in her best form at present, she will have to be respected. Of those further back John Jinks looks the most likely. In what should be an exciting finish the places may be filled by Blue Mountain, Silver de Oro, and Ron. 4.50 p.m. — SPUING HANDICAP, of 13a sovs. 2min Cisco class. One m.le and a quarter.

'-4 The concluding event, the Spring Handicap, will be contested by practically the same field as that which will have been seen out earlier in the dav in the Railway Handicap, and a line will be taken from the different displavs in that race. Should Rey Spec win the earlier event, it is possible that he will be placed on 36 yards in this race, but if he escapes with a penalty of 24 yards, he will again have to be taken into consideration. Priceless is capable of winning if he would reproduce his track form, but he is an uncertain racing proposition. Royal Chenault cannot be discarded, nor can Whippet, but it is likelv that R. B. Berry's bracket, Rey Spec, and Royal Chenault will dispute the final issue. j MARTON J.C. ACCEPTANCES (rRSSB ASSOCIATIOW TtCKSBAM ) WANGANCT, September 8.
