Shnacre, who won the final event at the Auckland Club'a Meotinu' aurt jjavo such a good return to her backers, is an Auk-t.riiliaii-bred Uliy by Linacrc from Fully San, by San Francisco. When Eold ub a yearling Sanacrc brought' ZOOgns. In coiieeciuenee. of difficultj in scouring tho necessary paenoortfi, It. J. Mason has had to postpone his intended ileparturo for Australia. •ITic Taranaki trainer, Percy Johnson, who had Movement', Piano. Priinato, and Expedition at Olaki, will go on to Oisborno -with Ilia- team. A visitor to Otaki races complained that, when lio presented a couple of ttckct3 nt one of the pay-out windows Jic was told that one of them did not concern tho race he wae presenting it for. Tho visitor, who had received the two tickets at, the same time, immediately wont to the totalintttor authorities, and. eventually lie was paid on both. . Sir Fisher knocked himself badly diiriiiff the running, of the Century Hurdled, aim he may be rested for a whilt.;. After, racinir at IVanganui Gipsy Oeni was found to be lamo. She has been turned out for a -while. A sum of over £46.000 was pat through the totalisator at Olaki. This amount represents a good increase on last year e. Sandy Paul, who raced in the etaplethauo on tile ecooiid day of tho Auckland meeting, is to be taken on to Oieborne.

W. Do-nn and Son, Waihou, and was sold as a yearling for 50gns. Latest reports from Sydney state that the English horse Mazpio has gono amiF.3. It will be a pity if Magpie will not Dβ able to meet Desert Gold and Biplane, it that pair do tho spring meetings at Kamiwick and Flcmington, as it is expected that the son of ,Dark Eonald will be a hard proposition in middle-distance wcislit-for-ago races. , .
