.NOTES ON.THE RACING. f.ffly. Telegraph.—Special Correapondent.J Mastcrton, October 29. To Ru, who was fourth favourite in Friday's' "race, 'was' made; a very strong favourite-in 'the Hurdles to-day, whilo the, remainder .'were comparatively ' neglected. He .was m front at tlio first •hurdle, .where British RifleTjoincd-him, and the pair -then led for a mile, when. British Itifie knocked a hurdle flat, and this took all the "go" out of him. ■ In the straight Whakaweira easily ran up to To Ru and .beat him comfortably in the run, .homo, Sleacombe was a poor third:;-' . , ; .v. V

Portcullis opened up favourite in the Scurry Hack Handicap, but- big -money camo for Ps hu, and she disjilaced Portcullis. 01j,ver. slipped'the favourite out first, " but, :HerryFly and Portcullis soon joined: her. ' Rounding, the bend Merry Fly rah very , wide, arid lost a lot of ground, .but Reid soon straightened her up, and she ran in an easy winner. I'ahu and Portcullis finished locked together, but the others were outclassed.

A hot, favourite in Rill was beaten in the next race/zwhen the- lightly-weight-. Ed Sir Solo, took charge earlyj and won by a couple of lengths'. The favourite, Skye, aud Captain Ik 11' ivere all in a line> at the finish, and the judge gave the verdict for second place to Skye, by half a head. Captain Bell was a head away fourth. ,' First Consul gotf away badly j' and .was never prominent. ; Clemorar .(who. struck himself in the Publicans' Handicap on Friday) .-and Strathmoira Vcre the defections from ' the . big race.' Sir Antrim was made favourite. From a fair start, Mataari and Llanwern made play with Sir Antrim : and Rauparaha a couple of lengths away and Airiiwell whjpping in tlio field. Across the-.bend Sir Antrim and Rauparaha ran ,up to the, leaders. The favourite got through on the rails, arid in an interesting finish, beat "Rauparaha by a neck. Mataari was a couple of lengths' aw'dy.' i Then camo Llanwern and Aimwell.

All the eight acceptor-s for the High Weight - Hack Handicap - went to the post. Eiya'(a stable mate of the winner of the hurdles) was favourite, but never showed up prominently. From a good dispatch, Tyrannic went to the front, and tried to win from end to end, but just failed.- He had Aot-ea with hirn to the distanco, whero the latter was beaten. Himitangi, under the whip, finished gamely, and getting to the leader ill the last few strides, won by a neck. Boyno Water was a good third.

Eva was withdrawn from the Electric Hack Handicap in which Lady Doris was the first, and Lord Possiblo tlio last, to move. Entering tho straight, tho field closed on Lady Doris, who was being ridden. Lealibra and British Maid drew almost level under punishment, but Lady Doris managed' to keep in .front, and . won by a nook from British Maid, with Leahora closo up. British .Maid (a.Wairarapa Gujneas candidate) gave a better exhibition than on the previous day.

It was intended to start Tumut in tlio Stewards' Handicap, but after being saddled up, he showed signs of lameness and permission' was given to withdraw him. His stable mato, Sunbo'nnot, making her first appearanco this season, was favourite, and was lucky to scoro. She was last to begin, Full I'ato'being at the head of affairs at the- end of a furlong.. Full Rata auueared to have everything set-

tied at tlio turn, hut Sunbonnot got clcar througli on tlio rails, and won by a length. Princo Hassan was to have' mado liis reappearance in tlio Welter Hack Handicap, tho concluding event, but was, howovor, withdrawn. After t'lio good showing which Strathmoira' mado on tho previous day, he was selected as tlio best of the seven runners. He drifted back in the market, however, and, as ho went out of favour, tliero was a rush for Awlia.' Strathmoira got away with the others, but dropped back, and at tho half mile .was' in tho rear. Mediterranean led for six furlongs, where Awha ran through on tlio outside. Ho appeared to have the race won at tlio distance, but, unfortunately, slipped and fell when, about 100 yards from the post. . Comethiip also fell over him, and although the horses escaped, the jockeys (W. Kirk and E. Lowe) were knocked about considerably and sustained broken collarbones. Rangikapua was thus left to score from-Hose Herald.
