rewarding programme since January, wins including Nelson Cup. Has had quick rise in weights, but should go close here. 2 8815 CHEVAL d'ALURE (2) 52.5. Won Marlborough Cup last Saturday and fifth after being forced wide in her race on Wednesday. G. Cooksley 3 0342 GOLDEN GATE (3) 52. Strong finisher for second to Maria Zana at Marlborough on Wednesday. Respected in that form. B. Rule 4 0023 JOSS (4) 51. Strong finisher for second in Marlborough Cup and third on second day of meeting. Consistency might be rewarded here. L. Collins 5 1154 LINEA LLADRO (20) 50. Won in lower grades at Riverton. This harder. P. Hillis * 9094 CANDIDATE (8) 50. Weakened after leading close home in corresponding race at Marlborough on Wednesday. Has winning form at Westport and might be improver in this field. R. McCann I 7854 EXCESSIVE TALK (10) 50. Usually takes a long time to wind up on his finishing runs and might be at disadvantage on small track. M. Mein 8 4540 FIRPO (7) 50. Has found success elusive since early in season, but form likely to improve when tracks ease. 9 9400 NO DECISION (4) 50. Would have to find sharp improvement to match the best of the others here. 10 0000 SPRING'S ETERNAL (14) 50. Well beaten in Marlborough Cup. Should be better when tracks ease. II OWB BOLD LION (1) 49.5. Veteran with nothing to commend him here. N. Waddell 12 8078 CHITRAL (11) 49.5. Did not gallop freely on firm ground at Marlborough. Worth a second thought when tracks ease.

13 8540 CHEVAL D'OAKE (14) 49.5. Fell at start of corresponding race at Marlborough on Wednesday. Previous form not up to much. 14 0044 GREEK PRINCE (5) 49.5. Has been failing in weaker company. 15 9423 GOLDEN TRUMPET (17) 49.5. Two sound races for minor placings at Marl borough meeting. D. Walsh 14 0879 PHOENIX LAD (18) 49.5. Has done much of his racing short of this distance. Form does not look good enough. 17 8331 RIO RIBBON (15) 49.5. Strong finisher to win over 1400 m on final day of Marlborough meeting. Rates a light-weight chance here. 18 3000 RED DEMON (13) 49.5. Win in soft in lower class at Greymouth in January. Form on firm ground not up to much but should soon get footing to suit. 19 0647 UP A HUNDRED (19) 49.5. Has toiled unrewardingly for some time now. Last start was as hurdler at Blenheim. 20 4840 WATELSE (8) 49.5. Shows only odd Hashes of form.

4.10 p.m.— STEWARDS' HANDICAP $1350; 1200 m. 1 1322 CONBRIO (6) 57. Placed twice in stronger Helds at Riccarton at Easter and obvious prospect here. A. Cowan 2 4500 LEROY BROWN (8) 54. Had rewarding sprinting campaign in summer but has not reproduced that form this time up. 3 1044 TRUMPET CALL (1) 54. Ran himself out pacemaking over 1400 m at Marlborough on Wednesday. Respected this distance. P. Hillis 4 1567 EROS (2) 51. Durable veteran. Seldom races badly

on this circuit. Adapts well to soft tracks. P. Jones 5 1008 OELGANEY (4) 47. Quick front runner and shows to best advantage on small courses. Respected here. 6 9000 LEOPARD (7) 49. Has shown best form on soft and heavy tracks. Not least of chances here if conditions suit. 7 0440 ROSEARNA (3) 48.5. Only win this season was at middle distance. 8 4477 BUFFY MOLLOY (10) 48. Won fresh up this distance Washdyke in December, but has not repeated that success. • B. Rule 9 9908 JIM 808 (5) 43. Hard to fancy on form this time up. D. Walsh 10 6900 KHUSH AMADI (11) 48. Won this distance in lower grade in November, but has not made grade since. 11 1900 OUR JET (9) 48. Won three successive races in lower class on Westland sum mer circuit, and will rate something of a light-weight's chance if she can recapture that form. L. Collins
