RACING Good Stayers In Sprint Event

Hay Burner and Sliderule, entrants for the spring cups in Melbourne, are two interesting candidates for the Seafield Handicap, second leg of the T.A.B. double at the Ashburton County Racing Club’s meeting on Saturday.

The distance, seven furlongs, will be short of Hay Burner’s best but ■ fresh up he might go well on the roomy Ash-] burton course. The Seafield Handicap will!also be the starting point ton another campaign for Sailing | Home. An injury received l ( two days before the Welling ! ton Cup put Sailing Home out]} of action when she was at her peak and a fancy for the two- I | miler after a second to 111 Tempo in the Auckland Cup. I 1 Of those with recent racing'i Gay Doctor and Watchman < will command most interest. ] Both won at the Dunedin < winter meeting. Gay Doctor showed his hardiness in win-!] ning the mile Queen Eliza- I \ beth Handicap and his I; fortieth start for the season.; When rivals in the Mem- 1 hers’ Handicap, seven fur- ] longs two days later, Watch-ii

man was first and Gay Doctor! was third. Trelay. which separated them in that race, showed the value of that form in winning i the Oamaru Winter Cup on Saturday. 1 Glamis Lad is top-weight inl a field of 13 in the Maronan Handicap, the first leg of the; i Ashburton T.A.B. double.
