Small Riccarton Wingatui Team
Canterbury representation at the Dunedin Jockey Club’s winter meeting will be the weakest for some years, and Riccarton stables can seldom have had fewer than five runners on a first-day programme.
Rictarton’s five runners for Saturday will be taken south Tomorrow. They are Race Guide and Hullabaloo, which are engaged in "the St Clair Intermediate Handicap, Everglades and Scuffle, acceptors *for the Brighton Improvers', Handicap, and Casstay, which ■ is in the Trial Stakes. Charlborough will aceom- : pany them south and will race; 1 on the second day. and W. A.' Welton may follow the same programme with his pair. Can't Wait and Research. Few Gallops Scuffle (Wilson 1 and Ever glades I Stokes) did one of few gallops of interest in the training on a showery morning at Rieearton yesterday. Galloping on the No. 6 grass, they recorded Imin 21 13-ssec for six furlongs and 41 l-ssec for the final three fur- : longs. Later, Race Guide (Cowles): and Casstay (Mein) recorded •Imin 23 2-ssec for six fur-: longs, quickening for the last three in 40sec. Race Guide was impressive in winning over seven furlongs at Amberley last time out and might take beating over a mile at Wingatui on Saturday. Plans for a rider for Race Guide had not been finalised yesterday. N. Cowies, who trains the King's Command gelding, may take the ride if a shod-'
der, injured in the hurdle race at Amberley, gives no > more trouble. J , I Ran Keenly Charlborough (N. Eastwood) and Valuate (K. Daly) were going keenly under ■ light-weights just ahead of Hullabaloo (<f T. Wilson) finishing six furlongs in Imin 22 4-ssec, the final three in 40 l-ssec.
