“The Press” Special Service * HASTINGS, j Just William, which Is en- > gaged at Foxton on Saturday, ] worked impressively on a i slushy plough at Hastings yes- ] terday morning. He is at peak ] fitness and if he struck a wet track at the week-end he would have to be taken into account. < Most of the work took place on the plough which was wet but still offering good footing for those that liked it. Just William (R. Grantham) drew well clear of Mr Sin (J. Waaka) tn the concluding stages of six furlongs in Im in 22sec, the last three In 42 2-ssec. Mr Sin had a big weight. He i« fit for his steeplechasing debut in the Carter Steeplechase, and he has schooled very well over country. Mr -Spy (B. Kirke) and Caries (R. Marsh) ran easily over five furlongs in Imin 6 4-ssec, the latf three in 39 4-fisec. Mr Spy is in the Barber Hack Handicap but though he is fit, he has drawn very badly, Carlos revelled in the wet ground. Dev ante (D. Thomas) ran half a mile alone to Msec,' the W three in 39sec. This was an excellent trial. She is forward and could give a good account of herself in the Robinson Handicap. Tosh <R. Mar»h) and Welloourt (B. Kirke) were impressive running six furlongs in Im in 20 2-5 sac. the last three in 40 3-5 sec. Tosh reveHed in the ground and should be hard to beat in the Price Hack Hurdles. Welloourt could be a threat in the Margin Hack Handicap. Frigate (L. Carsten) and Golden Mica (K. Puttee) ran , five furlongs In Imin 0 2-ssec. ; the last three in 40 2-*»ee. This

was another good trial. Private and Golden Mica are tn the Barber Hack Handleap, but the trainer. T. McNeil, said yesterday that Golden Mica was not likely to run.
