TROTTING ADDINGTON EASTER MEETING

Suzendy Should Race

Well

- Snzendy, a useful third to Golden Chimes and Gold Mist m the President’s Handicap last Saturday, may return to winning form in the Monte Carlo Handicap on the last day of the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club’s Easter meeting at Addington today. The U. Scott mare will meet most of those to finish behind her in her race'last week, and she should again prove too good for them. She is most solid, and F. E. Newfield has her looking very well. The distance of today’s race—Tine mile and five furlongs—should suit her admirably.

The Southland mare. Blue Jay, : ’’•M frfled to 13156 any serious part ’ 2 3 her race last week, but on the ( it Jst day of the meeting she was : . to Dignus in the Fen■'i alien Handicap. If she races up 1 - m 3 her best form, she may be the me to beat. The Great Blaze -are has tremendous speed. Parable is one of the most con- • 'Ut? gEtent pacers in his class. He M iff* n ot won a race this season. ' -d but he has been placed 12 times. While he may not win today, he ** *? j certain to make a bold showing he may be placed again. ’ Phantasy finished a good fifth in wj ber race last week after losing ■ H pound at the start, and on the "4 length of that effort, she must ’ respected. R Beason Why, Responsive and Tehana are other prospects in an ***» ®en race. • First Win Likely e Similas, a fair third to Gold ’T'lKist and Parable in a race for probationary drivers on the first '•feaay of the meeting, may gain her win since being trained in Canterbury in the Wilkin Handicap. Similas is a useful type of peer, and with a good run she . fcould be prominent. Starwise made up a lot of s. "4 pound to finish second to Westgn Sen on the second day of the -areeling and the Springbok geldfeg may go one better over a -’niiorter distance. ,i- Signet Ring, which will be ■'nd racketed with Dinnie Daley, has ■aac sen placed twice at the meeting, md another bold showing is extasq lected from him. r> Gold Mist, on 36 yards, Capull h..4rd Macklin make most appeal of he others. r- Astrong sprint field will meet in '•’‘be Au Revoir Handicap. Local .. . Light, which is expected to be * hardest to beat in the Easter :. Tap, could win again in the sprint. -Sjje looks handily placed on 12 '->;7rds and if produced, it is diffililt to see him beaten. Two Sound Races Hie Invercargill-owned Super -J byal looks one of the brightest respects in this race. She was imner-up to Derive in a similar Pent on the first day of the mi ceeting, and last week she was - it close fifth in the Electric Stakes. While she would be preover more ground, she i"-8 cost be respected after her two -arling efforts earlier at the meet- . ’ Unite was rather disappointing '.•-wwhen third to Derive and Super >*3toyal on the first day of the meet;ir ng. Unite is very fit and if the '•sipace is solid all the way, he is . tertain to be running on bettei ihan most of his opponents. I Derive was a narrow winner in !ae Bryndwr Handicap on the first cay of the meeting, but he could *»no better than fourth in the . Handicap last week. The <L€Mlon Hall gelding requires a -Tigard track to show his best form, if conditions suit, he should ’ prominent today. False Step’s Chances t*. | False Step cannot be overlooked * spite of his long handicap of BIM yards. The brilliant Fallacy * -Hour-year-old showed rare game'••:[3ess to win the Electric Stakes wee k» an< * with a little luck, . could repeat that effort today. <• i Count Grattan. Glint and Mars.’ftall Foi are all capable sprint-■’-ers and they may add interest to r *he finish. However, Local Light, yjenuper Royal and Unite will take latching. -■ |lx>cal Light and Lookaway, “ will be bracketed with paper Royal, are selected to fight r dle *h e Easter Cup, first leg of the double and the ’ race on the programme. - Jixjcal light is expected to end “***£* run of successes of his plunger rival If he does, he will to the verge of New Cup class. j Most opposition to this pair may = pOe from Don Hall, a likelj ’-« < l®Prover.
