NOTES AND COMMENTS By Glencox. Owners are reminded, that nomination* for all events at the winter meeting of the Wanganui Jockey Club close on Friday next. Owners of jumpers who intend patronising the winter meeting of the Dunedin Jockey Club should' note that entries for all events close on Friday. Entries for the chief events at the A.R.C. winter meeting are due on Friday next. Record entries have been received for the winter meeting of the Egmont Racing Club, and the list of the jumping races includes all tho leading ’chasers in the Dominion, with the exception of Locheltaj who is amiss. It looks as if the progressive spirit displayed by the Hawera folks will put the Egmont Club right in the front rank. H. Gray arrived in the city yesterday and’will join the Marama, which is to sail fox- San Francisco to-day. He will travel across the States and leave from New York for Liverpool- He will witness some of the racing in England, and will return to the Dominion in time for the New Zealand Cup meeting in NoJ. W. Lowe will leave by the Paloqna on Friday for Melbourne. He is taking his three-year-old Insurrection with him, and will race him on the other side tor a couple of months. The jockey W. Kitchener is accompanying him. In an endeavour to attract some of the best performers from Melbourne and NewZealand, the Australian Jockey Club is putting a couple of £1590 steeplechases on its June programme. In the past steeplechases have been very easy to win at Randwick, as all the best horses are engaged in June and July at inc - a

tionals in MelUurne.- . Included in tho entrias for the big jumping events at Hawera next month is tho Gisborne-owned Multxve, who, it the past, has confined his attention to hurdle racing. Multive is now owned by Mr. H. Jones, of Gisborne, and is trained by J. Ware, at Hastings. The Dunedin mentor, C. Chustie, is bringing General Advance and the jumper Moongtow to ihe Egmont meeting, after which lie will do the Wanganui and Ellerslie fixtures. & Maioha has been a wonderfully consistant performer this season, and his list of winnings will give his sue Hal owmns a big lift in the winning list. The chestnut gelding started eight times in he spring. At Woodville he won the big handicap, and followed it un by three races, including a dead heat, on end at FJlerslic. He then came south and won the Wellington Cup. and afterwards ran second to Maroueteur m the Wanganui Stakes. He scored m the Napier Cup, and was placed second to Vagabond in the St. George’s Handicap at Ellerslie He wound up the season by taking the Hawke’s Bay Cup last; week. With g the exception of the Chmtmas meeting at Ellerslie, where he was ridden by H. Gray, he has always been ridden bv Heed. So pleased was Mr. W. G. Stead with the recent form of the two-year-old Prince Ferouz, that he decided that next season the whole-of his imported mares will be mated with the St. Frusquin horse IreramOwners with horses engaged at the Marlborough meeting, which is to be held on Friday and Saturday of should note that acceptances for all events, including trotting races,close on r S y ristag Iwo-yenr-old to Rational has boon named Veil.
