FORM GUIDE FOR DOUBLE

H. R. CHALMERS HANDICAP. £4OOO ; 2m. TERRIFIC: Had luck against him in two of his previous three attempts to win at this distance. Just beaten in the Auckland Cup, and fifth in the Wellington Cup. Has since won Trentham Stakes at weight-for-age. Had bad run in latest race at Re Rapa. UDARE: Consistent at middle distances, and is thoroughly seasoned for his test. Just beaten over miles here in January. CALM COMET: Eight, but racing right at his best, and not the least of the chances after decisive wins at his last two starts. Ran 3rd in Eiffel Tower’s Wellington Cup. APA: Not fancied on presentseason form. HONESTLY: Surprise winner here over 1$ miles in January after failing in Wellington Cup. Hard to beat when

she comes up with one of her best runs. MIXED RECEPTION: Impressive winner at two latest starts and an unlucky second to Bandon in Wanganui Cup. Last-start win was on her home track at Bulls. Carried 8-3 and has 31b less here. BAROOWIE: Stablemate of Wellington Cup winner Michael Molloy and has made some notable contributions to stable record. Half-brother by Pride of Kildare to New Zealand Cup winner Poetical, and should manage the distance with 7-10. EMPYREUS: Has not recaptured his three-year-old form, which was high class, but his brilliant final gallop on Thursday was encouraging. RE-ECHO: Has usually found success elusive in this class, but has been placed at two miles at Trentham. Will welcome any easing in the track more than most of the

others. CASTLE DEE: Nothing in his latest form to inspire confidence. DARK SON: Won a double over middle distance against hacks at Trentham In Janu-

ary, but last two runs have been very ordinary. LADY JANUS: Hardly up to this class. SPARKLING MAID: Form is weak. THOMPSON HANDICAP. £3000; Im. TARA’S PRIDE: Won Adams Mile brilliantly on this course in January. Last-start failure at Woodville was at a middle distance. PHEROZ PRIDE: Much too good for the others in the Lady Norrie Stakes at her last start. Just beaten in Adams Mile at Ellerslie in January. LOOFAH: Runner-up to Tara’s

Pride here in January. Easy winner over a mile at Masterton last time out. Has been, under treatment for leg trouble, but should take beating if at his best today. FEIRAMOUR: No match [for Loofah at Masterton. but finished solidly for his second. KINTYRE: Finds success elusive, but does not run many bad races up to a mile. Place prospect. TUAM: Latest runs have been only fair. Failed at a mile here in January. PHARASAL: Four-year-old from Riccarton with light-weight’s chance. Decisive winner over six furlongs at Riccarton last month, and should not be bothered by today's longer race. SURF BOY: Has raced well at times as a miler at Trentham. but usually finds one or two superior. Last-start sixth at Masterton. TRIED AND TRUE: Has been highly consistent this season. Usually runs on in shorter races, and might force his way into this finish. ROODYVOO: Veteran. Others preferred. GENERAL MYTH: Sprint winner at Taranaki meeting on Wednesday. One of the youngest In the field, and could be still improving.
