AUCKLAND (Today) FINVOLA (Race I),b f, 2yrs, by One Pound Stirling—Sunwing: trained at Takanini by C. M. Jillings. Bold first-up run for second on the course at the Waiuku meeting last month suggests she will be untroubled to break through for her first victory against the maiden two-year-olds today. AUCKLAND TROTS (Tonight) THRILLER DEE (Race 7), b m. 6yrs, by Crockett—Gay Marlene;’trained at Ohaupb by L. C. Robinson. Unbeaten in her last four outings. Top class trotter which set a national timetrial record for a mile trotting of Imin 57.8 s at Cambridge and looks the one.
MANAWATU (Monday) EDWIN EDEN (Race 7), b c, 2yrs, by Vance HanoverDonna Eden; trained at Waiuku by D. Jessop. . A good third to Bobby Vance in the corresponding race on the first night, he looks a second-to-none chance tonight against a moderate field. HORORATA QUADWIN (Race 10), b g, 4yrs, by Out to Win— Maudena; trained at Methven by T. M. May. Promising type which has shown improvement with each outing of late. Recorded a smart performance to win at Washdyke last week and should have little difficulty coping with the rise in class. POVERTY BAY GREYTOWN (Race 8), gr g. 6yrs, by Tazrula—Golden Virginia’; trained at Avondale by R. Hinton. Should comfortably account for the type of rival he will meet' tomorrow after recent placings at Te Rapa and Avondale. WAIPA BENHAR (Race 2), br h, 4yrs. by Le Fripon—Shakmate; trained at Matamata by Miss K. K. and N. Crawford. Has performed well in stronger fields than this. Must be tough.

Outstanding performer as a metric miler this season, and will dominate betting, if the footing is firm. Trying for his fifth win "on the trot” here.
