Brodie. who suffered injuries through a fall on Thursday, showed a big improvement in his condition yesterday and a report last evening indicated that his condition was not as serious as feared late on Thursday night. An X-ray examination was made and it was revealed that he suffered three distinct breaks in his jawbone. There was no sign of any skull injury. Brodie also sustained a broken finger ana a badly injured hand, and some time will elapse- before he will be able to leave Dunedin Hospital. Caddie for Australia Cuddle has been paid up for in the Dunedin Jockey Club Handicap and Hazlett Cup at Wingatui to-day,, but her owner-trainer. Mr C. J. Stowe, stated yesterday that she would start in the handicap. She has done well since going south and showed no effects from her race in the Dunedin Cup. She can be depended upon to show her real form in to-day's race, in which she will be ridden by A. E. Ellis. Tentative arrangements have been made to send Cuddle to Australia for the autumn racing. She is to be left with S. G. Ware at Wingatui while Mr Stowe returns to Hastings with Sunny Maid. He will return south in about three weeks' time and ship his mare from the Bluff to Melbourne by the s.s. Maheno. There is also a possibility of Ware going to Australia with some of his young horses. Injury Not Serious Silver Ring was given half-pace ■work at Wingaui yesterday and appeared to suffer no ill-effects from his mishap on Thursday. He is, however, not quite right and his prospects in to-day's engagement do not look very bright. A Hard Task Nightly was responsible for a good gallop the outside of the course at Wingatui on Thursday morning and again worked pleasingly yesterday. He is in excellent order as far as racing condition is concerned, but he may be troubled by his wind infirmity to-day. The damp atmosphere will not assist him. A. E. Ellis will ride Nightly and the combination will be in keen demand. Another Chance Polydora ran her best race for some time in the Dunedin Cup, and when seen yesterday she appeared as if she had not had such a hard undertaking. Provided the early pace in to-day's Hazlett Gold Cup is not too solid Polydora will be a most dangerous candidate, and it would not be surprising to find her outclass the field over the business stages. . Riders at Wingatui Some riding engagements for today's programme at Wingatui are:— A. E. Ellis: Nightly, Coat of Arms, Cuddle. Venite. D. O'Connor: Lycidas, Silver Ring. M. Kirwan: Polydora, Colossian, Greek Shepherd. E. Leckie: Tout le Monde. L. J. Ellis: Coatette, Silver Coat, Great Shot, Imperial , Spear, Silver Streak, and Daring, Deed. G. Humphries: Honeste, Silver Sail, Hunting Go. P. Powell: Queen of Song. Banks Peninsula Meeting For the Banks Peninsula meeting to be held on March 2, 154 nominations were received last evening, an increase of two on last year's total. The Dunedin Cup The biggest field of horses that has contested the Dunedin Cup paraded in 1918, when 18 of the 23 horses nominated went to the post. Three Ric-carton-trained horses filled the places, Mr A. Boyle's Margerine 8-5, ridden by W. Bush, winning from Mr C. G. Dalgety's Wardancer 8-4 (J. Campbell), and Mr D. H. Roberts's Glendower 7-7 (C. Reed). The top-weight was Adjutant 9-1. Totalizator Improvements The directors of Automatic Totalisators, Ltd., announce that since the end of last financial year three important orders have been received to replace old type installations previously carried out by the company. The machines being installed are of the type with the latest odds barometer indicator, as operated by the company on the leading racecourses in Victoria. Clubs for which they will be installed are the A.J.C. at Randwick, where one of the largest machines in the world will be erected; the Madras Race Club. India, and the Canterbury Jockey Club, New Zealand. The Australian Cud After discussing the prospects of horses engaged in the Australian Cup, to be run on March 9, "Chiron," in the "Australasian." selects La Trobe, Picatus. Robert, Topical, Theo, Gippsland, Cueesun, and Supervalve as likely to race well. The writer was in doubt as to whether Vintage would race in Melbourne, and for this reason did not include him in the list of his favourites. "Chiron" writes as follows: —"It would not in the least surprise me to see Topical win this Australian Cup, as he is not harshly treated with 8-12. He won the race two years ago as a four-year-old with 7-8. Since then he has finished second in the Metropolitan with 8-5, and third (dead-heat) in the Melbourne Cup with 8-7. The Aus-
tralian Cup is a much easier race to win than the Melbourne Clip, so with only 51b more than he carried, in Hall Mark's cup, in which he was decidedly unlucky at the turn for home, he is rather well treated. He is a proved stayer, and I think is a much better horse here than he is in Sydney. He should be able to give 21b to Ruach, who is handicapped right up to his best form. Sir Simper failed in the last Melbourne Cup with 7-7, being the last home, and his failure was complete. He has never impressed me as a likely stayer, and perhaps a mile and a half is quite as far as he cares about, but as the Australian Gup is not run at nearly such a solid pace as the Melbourne Cup his speed might enable him to get the distance. The race has often been won by a supposed non-stayer. Flail is getting no younger and has probably reached the sere and yellow leaf stage, but it is in his favour that he is a sound stayer. Still, I will allow him to run against me. King March, I understand, is to run in the race, but on New Zealand form he seems to be held very safe by Vintage to whom he was twice second at the Auckland Cup meeting during the Christmas holidays." TROTTING NOTES Reminders Acceptances for the New Brighton Trotting Club's summer meeting will close on Tuesday at 12 noon. L. F. Berkett's Pair L. F. Berkctt will be represented at Auckland to-day by Plain Pearl and Raydus. The Leading- Trainer F. J. Smith, who is at the head of the winning trainers' list, will probably add to his record at (he Auckland meeting. Horses that will carry his colours include Polly Pan, Rare Rcy, Worthy Light, Rustic. Chancellor, King's Warrior, and Red Hope. A Strong: Team J. T. Paul has been a very successful trainer in Auckland this season, and amongst those to represent him to-day are Great Admiral, Great Parrish, Ringtrue, Aircraft, and Te Kahu. Betting- System The Wellington Trotting Club has decided to adopt the betting system that was used at the Forbury Park Trotting Club's summer meeting for its meeting to be held on March 2. Dividends will be paid on the first and second horses in each race, and when there are eight or more starters place dividends will also be returned. Trainer for Durbar Lodge G. Mouritz has accepted an engagement as private trainer to the Durbar Lodge stable at Ashburton. Mouritz has had a long experience of trotting, mostly in Australia, and since coming to New Zealand he has enjoyed a fair amount of success. He was private trainer to Mr J. R. McKenzie, and prepared Taxpayer to win the New Zealand Sapling Stakes and the New Zealand Derby. Of late he has been in the limelight as the driver of Wild Guy in several important victories. Marlborough Trotting Club The Marlborough Trotting Club has issued the programme for its annual meeting to be held on Saturday, March 9, and while the stakes are not up to metropolitan standard, a number of Canterbury trainers may find the meeting worth a visit. The principal race, the Marlborough Cup, is worth 105 sovs. which sum includes a cup valued at 25 sovs. The race is for horses that can do 4min 46sec or better for cwo miles. The stakes of the other races are either 45 sovs or 50 sovs, and are mainly for horses that still retain their maiden status. Nominations will close at 9 p.m. on Monday, February 25. Plain Pearl With the exception of two races at Wellington in the spring, Plain Pearl has done her racing on the West Coast of the South Island,' where she has had a good measure of success, says the Auckland "Herald." Plain Pearl is a big, plain-looking six-year-old mare by Wrack from Pearl Pointer, a daughter of Pearl Child, who produced good performers in Searl Pearl, Nicoya, and White Satin. It may be somewhat against Plain Pearl that she has done most of her racing on dirt tracks, and all of it the reverse way to the Auckland track. This change has previously proved the undoing of good horses from the West Coast, and last February G. R. Kearns' Admiral Wrack, who came with excellent performances, failed badly at Epsom. Plain Pearl had her first run the righthanded way on Tuesday last, and while she was impressive in the straight, did not appear to be quiet comfortable on the turns. Son of Walla Walla At the conclusion of the Goulburn Racing and Trotting Club's meeting, at which the Sapling Stakes was decided, 120 guests were entertained at a dinner given by the club. The Mayor of Goulburn, Alderman T. P. Manion, congratulated the club on the success of the meeting. He was very pleased to see the club increasing its prize money, and he hoped it would continue to do so every year. He was connected with the old club when the prize money amounted to £I2OO, and the profits then were greater than ever. Breeders and owners had been very loyal to Goulburn, and he had Iho utmost faith in them giving the club every support. "I think we have seen the darkest days," continued the Mayor, "and I see a particularly bright future for trotting in Goulburn. We have seen trotting in this city second to none in Australia. Wilverley won thu first cup at Goulburn, and I was delighted to see a son of his. The Wobbler, win. That outstanding champion, Walla Walla, who won several cups, also produced a son. Red Walla, winner of the Trotters' Division of the Sapling Stakes, and judging by the exhibition he gave to-day, he promises to emulate the deeds of his father." American or World's Records? American records in trotting and pacing are world's records, according to American ideas, and the list of re-cord-holders published each year include only horses from there. A number of New Zealand horses are now entitled to entries amongst the champions of the world. The statistics published give records made over all distances from one furlong up to 100 miles and a distinction is made between half-mile and mile tracks. It seems only right to consider threequarter mile tracks, and if this were done the records made by New Zealand horses would figure prominently. The one mile saddle record still stands to the credit of George Gano, who in 1917 went 2min 15isec, time that has been beaten in New Zealand on many occasions. The mile and a quarter record is held by Cupid's Albingen, who did 2min 37^sec, and this time has been lowered .by several New Zealand horses. Recent performances, however, have had the effect of bringing trotting in the Dominion under the notice of American authorities, and it may not be long before some of our times will be recognised as world's records. The following is taken from tho "Horseman and Fair World" published in Indianapolis: "During a number of past seasons Australian harness horse ; interests have disputed the right for positions in the tables of world's championship performers as published in the United States. So far none is listed in official tabulations. Whether past performances have been rejected because of discrepancies in the manner of procedure of competition, or through lack of official records to substantiate
