ing. The U. Scott three-year-old is a grand stayer and it will be surprising if he fails' to show up Moneymusk, Sunhappy. Vivacis and Maud Noble appeal most of the others. The Collingwood Handicap, a race for slow-class trotters. most of which are engaged earlier in the St. Vincent Handicap, has been selected as the second leg of the double. Grand Charge, Oakleigh Lad and Safe Haven raced well enough at Ashburton to suggest that they will be prominent. Fair weather is forecast and the track is expected to be in good order, if a little easy. Fields, with form, for the doubles races are:—
