The weather was dull but fine for tho first day of tho Fcilduig Spring Meeting. Tile attendance was not so largo as ueual. The totalisator handled J36,009, against .t'3I.BSO mi the one-day meeting last year. Tho Trial Plate, fivo furlongs and a half, had ten runners. Festival and Valley Eoso being favourites. The race win tho usual tlung expected when apprentices are riding. The two favourite were soon toiling , in the rear, and whilo Festival got up on tho fence at the turn, Valley Ease covered a lot of extra ground. Whetoki ied into the straight, lvJiero War Baby slipped up on tine rails and gained several lengths. She won. very decisively from Festival, who finished well. Jvickapoo was third, and then caiue Eeporoa.

There wero several defections from the Hack Hurdles. Garryowen was a good favourite, though he stripped badly. Whiro looked well, as did Hautawa. Pervolo got oil badly, but soon led the field. At tiie halt'-miio Whiro and Vigolo were in behind the leader, who was tiring. Entering the straight Lepanto and Hushabye Whiro, and tho trio jumped the last fenco together. Lepanto was very confidently handled by W. Bowden, and won easily, while Whiro beat Hushabyo by a nwk. Eienzi wa fourth. Vigolo and Haulawa fell.

There wero six runners in tho Spring Hurdles, and all wcxe well backed, Gang Awa' made play for the first mile at a slow pace, and then Yankee Jack joined him, and tho pair led Maraetotara. down tho back. Yankeo Jack vus first into the straight, but Jlaraatotiara joined him at the last fence aud 6oon settled Jiim. Then Sir Dointid put in a claim and also headed Yankeo Jack aa the post was reached. Gang was fourth. Yankeo Jack will be all the better for the race. Cheval lost her rider at the first fence.

All started in tho Plying Stakes, Demos bring a good favourite. There was a long delay at tho barrier, bud the start, was a good one. Hrni&stra was the first away, but Murihiku took charge quickly, and at the end of a furlong she led Trentham liose, Hymestra, and Bonnie- Briar, with the others strung out. Entering tho straight, Jutland came fast on. the ouiside, and he led at the distanoe. Demos then put in a challenge, bud ho could not reach the leader, who won by two lengths from Birkenvale, who beat Deunos by a head. Bonnie Briar was close"up, and then came Esthoiiia and Dribble. Birken. valu got a bad passage, and will do better, as will Bonnie Briar, who was ehut in on the turn..

Dusky Eve was taken out <ff the big handicap, and the success of Jutland drew attention to tho prospects uf Marquetuer, who vent out a good favourit;. Eoso Pink and Athens 11, were in aharj;iß over the first) part, when theio was no paco on. At the half-milo Athene 11. went on by himself, and entering the straight First Salute joined him and quickly took charge. Ho ran in a comfortu.ble winner from Snub, w<ho finished fadfc and bent Athens 11. Marqneduer was fourth and then camo Moutoa Ivauova. Tho winner looked very well, but Athemi 11. was a trifle on tho big side, and will bo better for the race.

The FeiUiiug Stakee field attracted a lot of attention, but disappointment was expressed at the abeenco of Silver Link. Affectation looked very well, as did Tcssares. At the start Ermine and Aoivj were first away, and they led Croesus and Affectation. Entering tho slirnigiht, Acre ehook olf Ermine, but he ha«t to bo hard ridden to beat Affectation by a neck. Croesus was half a leiigth awrty, and then camo Ermine. Tcssares and Listowel wore bndly left.

In tho Kiwitea Welter Handicap, Kittling and Eoso Wreath, both pf whom ran well at the Cup Meeting, wore the popular picks. Ilushman and Arch Salute led most of the way, with Kipling and Eose Wreath next.. Eose Quee-n, niter getting badly left, ran round Hie field, and wou in good stylo under punishment. Tho I'ilzroy H.ack Handicap was contested by a field of twenty.
