BEST BETS

FRIDAY AUCKLAND JENNER (Race 9), b g 8 yrs, by Game Pride—Distinction; trained at Cambridge by C. S. Hunter. One of the best-performed-trotterss in the country and a last-start winner to boot, which comes In very well ■ under the mobile free-for-all conditions of this event. 1 Drawn nicely and should win. TARANAKI JUBILEE FAIR (Race 5), b g, ‘ 2 yrs, by Jubilee Wine— - \Wandereyes; trained at ' Stratford by K. Newsome. Already the winner of two of his last three starts, he - meets a largely inexperienced field here and should prove far too seasoned for his rivals. SATURDAY CANTERBURY CRYSTAL BROOK (Race 3), ch f, 2 yrs, by Star WayInhabitant; trained at Ric- •> carton by D. M. Kerr. Atractive winner in her only two appearances. Easily justified favouritism for the ■■ Otago Racing Club’s Cham- ; pagne Stakes at her last ; start. FORBURY PARK MALAZ (Race 6), b h, 4 yrs,' ’ by ' Lordship—Tempeste, Water; trained at Ryal Bush by A. F. H. Hunter.

NELSON SARASOTA (Race 9), b m, 4 . yrs, by Smooth Fella—Rosa Dream; trained at Greenpark by S. P. Little. Met trouble in lone start back ’ in November. Has looked highly promising and ■ should be too good for this lot. ROTORUA AVON’S GOLD (Race 3), ch c, 3 yrs, by Avon Valley— Swift Lover; trained at Matamata by H. J. Tapper. Consistent colt with very sound record. Has had time to freshen since last-start third at Te Aroha early last month and should take beating tomorrow.
