NOTES AND COMMENTS. ~" ~ [Br Glencoe.] • Satisfactory, acceptances have been,received for the second day of the Takapuna meeting. As a result of her. victory in the Cup on Wednesdny Jolio Fille has been .raised 121b., while La Keina has gone up 7lb. A quarter of a mile from homo in the Cup. the top-weight appeared' to have Jolie Fille ".in- trouble, but the younger mare, aided by her liglit weight, finished <:n the'better. " La Reina now meets' her on slb. better terms, and the raco should bo. 'interesting, though the prospects are,favourable for the Cup ivihner.-, Advocate should.be all. the better for his vaco (in the Cup, but he will not havo Deeley to hustle him along in the early'portion of the race.. ■■ .. ".' :

Shebeen, ; 'who is by Snalpeen, and is h member of R. Hannon's Waikato team, had a yery;easy; victory, in' tho Maiden Hurdles on Wednesday, and as his rider kept hiril oh the outsido of the course tho whohyway, an extra' 171b. should not bo prohibitive for him to-morrow. .Lady Alicia has been raised 12lb.- in thb 2-year-old event, while King Lupin, vvho has a great reputation and showed a lotof paco for half a mile on' Wednesday, lhas- come down' 41b. in tho handicap. A'difference of 161b. points to one animal only. , '.' Toreador won' the Ferry Handicap in a oohlm'oh the opening day and did .not look as if any distance would trouble him.'- He is likely to start a -warm favourite in the Moana Handicap to-mor-■rowin which" he will riieet Mnkura, winner of the Maiden Hnlidirap, who also won in the easiest possiblo fashion, v. Hyperion ran a good iace in the,Orewa Hurdles, and as-he, meets the winner, Surplus,,: on 151b. better terms,, he niny show up better in the Waiw;era, Hurdles. .'.'.Affinal reminder is given those con-, cern'ed-that. acceptances fot the Egmont and Ta'rahaki meetings close to-night. : ' C.'Pritchard has received an addition to his team/at Trentham, in the shape of n horse,% Mahaki from a fulUister to Tortnlla.

..'••■/An indication'of the lafgo amount of money td.be won at ctoss-country racing is given, by statistics published in the "Jockey" fof the eros-VCouritry campaign ; which lias now come to a conclusion. M. A; Veir-Pirard stands at tho head of tha noil with ; winnings amounting to .£16,188, followed .by-Mr. JuHennessy, whose horses under • thecare of Batchelor havo iron )£U,SSO; then come M. • Guerlain, with Hopper-as tho Winner'■ bf the French .Grand,. National, with ,£10,212, of which dCIO,OBO represented, in'.addition t6 tho iwork of art, tho stakes in the blue ribbon of'the cross-country turf. M. C. Lienart • has not' had much ' luck since Carter seceded .from-tho .management of his stable, arid he takes n meagre ..£8400; while M; Descafceaux,. fifth on the list of winning ownere with JEB2IO, is tho last to have attained tte mihimum of J!8000.

. According to jtho records of tho German Agricultural: Department of exports and imports of hovsts, the industry of breeding is in a flourishing condition in ■ the Empire. At tho end of last year the imports amounted to 9513, while the exports showed ft total of 35,002, marking a difference of 25,159 head.} The waning year will not havo proved quito as favourable owing to tho scarcity of fodder throughout Europe (says a writer in tho' London "Sportsman"). The International Race Committee or Baden-Baden will, hold its annual general meeting on January ■ 4, and thus lead rip to the publication of,the. frograinmo: for'the coming gathering at' [fozheim in August. According. 1 to the, engagements, mado for the Grand Prize of Baden and tho Furstenberg Memorial, an international contest will probably result. ■ English stables, for. some reason or other, have not come forward as might have been; anticipated from'a country whioh requires to keep in touch with the foreign market. French breeders have doubled the number of home entries for the Grand Prize," though tho conditions are, completely at variance with those practised in their own country. If the average of tho Newmarker sales ha's to bo maintained something will have to bo done in tho way of international racing, for thoi French breeders have 'largely catered for tho foreign bloodstock market on the Continent for 1 tho past few years. They discovered there was a demand for strains which owners oil the other side of'the'frontier saw running hud winning.
