NOTES AND COMMENTS
(By Glencoe.)
The Trentham raaro J tatty seems to have benefited by the different preparation f=he is now given, .and at Woodvillo plio shaped as well us over she has done. There was merit iii her second day's win, 11.5 sho onrmd Slst. and the going was on the heavy «:dn. Last season tiio Martian raaro failed to win a race, but. sho has new won at her first two starts, so doubtless Trainer Ayres will keep her at I'xui work. Itallowvonia. did well in the Trial Pk.le at Wocdvil'.e, and it should not be liijifi before she credits her owner with a win. It was ft food performance'"on the part of the daughter of Merrivonia (o lini-ih eioso to iiie two-year-olds at W'oodvi'le. Trentham finso wa3 raised 171b- for her win on the first day at Woodville, and this stopped her in tho Railway ffandicap oil Thursday. The All tied mare, showed a great burst of pace in the middle portion of the Electric Handicap, and ihoush she was stopping at lh.' finish the. break she got on the held enabled her to hold off the opposition until the post was reached. ];. Keeu has been enticed to ride (Inyiquo in tho Railway Handicap at Hilorslie. So far no rider has been engaged for Vagabond in the Auckland Cup. The form, of the Martian gelding in the Electrie Handicap at Woodville. was a surpr'st! lo most people, but his trainer expected him lo race well. E. Deeley telegraphed during the week asking J. H. Jefferd lo refrain from engaging a rder for a few days, and this is inter-pvr-ted lo mean that there may he some diubl about Karo genii.' to the post for the bit; two miles at TCllerslie. Tniiner J. It. Jplfcrd developed inlluenzft at Wondville and could not attend the second day's races. TFs team is proceeding on to Auckland in charge of .T. bridges, who will take control until Jef- ' ferd is fit to travel.
