Addington BARBARA DEL (Race S}, b f, 2yrs, by Anribro Del—Coodoo, trained by D. J. Townley, Tinwald. Decisive winner of N.Z. Welcome Stakes two starts back and last Saturday gained a runaway win in Leonard Memorial Stakes at Rangiora. Has undoubted brilliance and ability to accelerate quickly should enable her to overcome the disadvantage of . starting from 12 yards. Dunedin SHEWETTA (Race 7), gr m, 6yrs, by Byland—Economise, trained by A. N. Didharn, Wingatui. Has galloped brilliantly since her good second to Pole Star over seven furlongs on this course in February. Swift front runner, and always hard to beat at six furlongs around turns. 4 Winton ROBERT MAC (Race ♦), b g, 3yrs, by Goodland—Attenna, trained by R. MacGiliivray, Palmerston. Three-year-old of top class and as he can be relied on to begin quickly, he should be too good for this field ovei one mile.

Manawatu MARCHE RE (Race 5), f. 3yrs, by Copenhagen ll—Erin's Bridge, trained by R. C. Verner;, Takanini. After her brilliant all-the-way Wakefield Stakes win a fortnight ago, she is an outstanding prospect against a field of similar strength in the Manawatu Sires’ Produce Stakes. Tauranga

BATTLE HEIGHTS (Race 7) br g 3yrs, by Battle Waggon— Wuthering Heights, trained by R. Douglas, Morrinsville. If ever this three-year-old is going to quit maiden com pany it should be in the Tauranga event tomorrow. He looked good at the Pukekohe trials on Tuesday. Whangarei
