Capable stayer but was not suited by heavy ground at Riverton. Would measure up to best in this field. 3 8010 ALMONT (4) B*B. Impressive middle-distance hack winner at Invercargill. Unable to handle heavy ground at Riverton at his last start. One of the better chances. 4 6009 TINKER BOY (11) 8-8. Form earlier this season was above average but has not made much impression in his latest racing. 5 5606 TUDOR HALL (7) 841. Was responsible for useful staying form earlier in sea-

son but has been racing well below these eflforts. D. Adams. 6 3103 GREY PRIDE (16) 8-6. One of best hack stayers in south. He requires firm footing. Creditable third in strong company at Riccartoh last time out. Will appreciate drop in class. A. Robinson. 7 6891 DAWN BELLE (19) 8-5. Won in mud at last start at Riverton but earlier form only moderate. 8 0051 GENERAL BID (18) 8-5. Will be running out hack nominations. Last start winner in deep footing at Riverton. Does not win out of his turn. I. Annins. 9 7004 FROSTY LIGHT (14) 8-4. Stays well and would be outside chance. G. Scott. 10 8046 GOOD CAST (15) 8-1. Will be expected to improve on his latest form. Capable galloper on his day. 11 9951 ROBYN'S LAD (1) 8-0. Beat all but Hydel in Southern Champion Hack at Riverton and is sharply improved galloper. Worked particularly well during the week and might win in this class. B. Shaw. 12 3072 EDINBURGH (20) 8-0. Useful stayer and can be relied on to be thereabouts in

a genuinely run race. J. Pankhurst. 13 7035 INDIAN LADY (8) B*o. Promising third at first appearance at Riverton when Grey Pride won. Ran fair enough fifth at last start. R. Me Ara. 14 744 RADIANT LIGHT (17) 8-0. Latest racing has been over countiy. Looks safely held. N. Ridley. 15 0087 BEL HAT (4) 7-13. Would need to improve sharply. 16 5409 BONNEY BELLE (23) 7-13. No recent form. 17 6623 CHEEKY FELLA (5) 7-12. Has run useful races lately and is one which might cause an upset. 18 9524 GOLDEN STARLET (13) 7-13. Overdue for win. Two useful minor placings in as many starts at Riverton. Can handle both good and bad ground. 20 6314 MISS MELLAY (3) 7-13. Cleared novice class at second to last start. Dashing last furlong for fourth in first hack run after being slow’ out. Looks certain to be in it. M. Lawson. 23 2803 TIMBERCOMBE (9) 7-13. Runs his races out more strongly than most. Outside chance. M. Craig. 21 3510 SPACE FLIGHT (12) 7-12. Recent hack graduate but has been time making any impression.

Balloted out with right of reentry:— 19 000 McGILL (10) 7-13. No form in fresh campaign. S. Allen. 22 08 THIBELL (21) 7-13. Latest form weak. 1 9016 SHIFNAL KING (2) 8-9. Would be the one to beat if he got back into the field. B. Kennedy. 3.5 p.m.— OHAI HANDICAP, $900; 7f.— Command Flight (2), Shifnal King (11) 8-6; Piccolo (16) 8-2; Ballyaggan (5), Kurdallah (3), Lynwood Lass (6) 8-1; Bellander (18) 8-0; Jane Marie (17), Resmart (9) 7-13; Restrict (20), Caraway (13) 7-11; Caspian Sea (7), Cryla (10) Dunalister (8), Little Willie (1), McGool (12), Malmo (14), My Mellay (19), Pippa Passes (4), Who Dat (15) 7-10.

(T.A.B. doses 2.35 p.m.) 3.45 p.m.— WAIRIO CUP $2000; lira and 150 yd 1 2134 BELLAWARE (1) 8-8. Has been racing soundly. Failed on deep footing at her last start but might beat this field on firmer ground. S. Hawthorne. 2 2162 ATOMIC FLIGHT (13) 8-2. One of the best stayers in the south. Narrowly beaten last time out on a heavy track. In a strongly run race will be well suited. M. Kennedy. 3 5609 GAY GABADOR (16) 8-0. Has benefited from recent racing but looks safely held. B. Shaw. 4 8091 DECIMAL COIN (8) 7-13. Mudlark which would be in his element if track became heavy. Upset winner in these conditions at his last start. I. Annlng. 5 7077 MELD IE (14) 7-13. Promises to return to his good form but would be best suited by firm footing. J. Pankhurst. 6 4712 CHANNEL COMMAND (5) 7-9. Raced well under high-weight conditions at Riccarton. Will be strong light-weight chance in this field. A. Robinson. 7 1021 REDLO (4) 7-9. Ran great race for second in Riverton Cup and confirmed that form by beating highweight field at Riccarton. In great order at present and will be the one to beat. P. Silver. 8 4957 SLIDERULE (6) 7-9. Top i galloper in form but lack of

recent racing will be against him. R. Me Ara. 9 2220 ARTFUL LASS (11) 7-8. Overdue to win one in open class. Looked a shade unlucky when Red Carpet beat her at her second to last start at Riverton. N. Ridley. 10 9604 CAPASCO (12) 7-7. Recent racing has been as a sprinter but will be better suited over some ground. H. Warren. 11 5508 EFFGEE (3) 7-7. Little chance on latest form. 12 0007 EMPIRE KING (9) 7-7. Latest form does not give him much chance. 13 5090 GENERAL SLIM (7) 7-7. Looks out of his depth. 14 0070 GREY LANCE (2) 7-7. Recent efforts have been poor. S. Allen. 15 9564 MY ERA (10) 7-7. Would be a light-weight chance. Ran good races in stronger company at Riverton and is better stayer than most. M. Lawson. 16 0 OPSTAN (15) 7-7. Does not appeal. 4.30 p.m.— WAIRAKI HANDICAP, $1100; 6f.—Shewetta (10) 8-10; Red Sash (6) 8-7; Crown Agent (3) 8-6; Crunch (8), Haste Ye Back (1) 7-12: Job Hanan (5) 7-10; Miss Slick (9) 7-8; Martian Command (4).
