Opening Day of South Canterbury Meeting

DON JOSE’S CUP FROM END TO END

Masterton Meeting To-morrow: Notes and Comments

SOUTH CANTERBURY Another Long-odds Winner CHOKEBORE CAST-OFF % Dominion Special Service. Timaru, October 16. The South Canterbury Jockey Club’s spring meeting was opened to-day, in hue weather. The track was in good order. The attendance was large, and the totaiisator handled £9186, compared with £8835 on the opening day of the spring meeting two years ago. Won Without Trouble. The contest for the Otaio Hurdle Handleap was robbed of much interest by early mishaps, which occurred to Dry Area and the favourite Pangolin. The former hit the first fence hard, but kept his feet, and the rider, J. Kerr, making a marvellous recovery, he continued on for a tew furlongs. He, however, was out ot control, owing to the pilot losing his irons, and he had to be eased up. Pangolin blundered at the second fence, and his rider also lost his irons, and he, too, was pulled up before the third obstacle was reached. Troilus took charge going out of the straight, and led to the far turn from Oriflamb, Gay Fashion and Gold Knight. The order was unchanged to the post, Troilus winning by a length from Oriflamb, who ran his best race for some time. Gas Fashion made a faulty jump three furlongs from home, and finished a poor third four lengths away, with Gold Knight beaten off. Odds-on Favourite Scores. Miperval and Royal Grafton were the defections from the Spring Stakes, while the two-year-old Scotch Tea, by Tea Tray from Arch Lassie, bolted after doing her preliminary, and ran foul of a wire fence, necessitating her withdrawal. Painkiller monopolised the betting, and was backed down to short odds on. The two-year-old Monastic was the smartest away, and was followed to the straight entrance by Painkiller, Some Good and Flower. Once in line for home the favourite soon had the youngster’s measure, and went on to record an easy victory by two lengths, with Monastic three lengths in front of Flower.

Sensational Dividend. The Maiden Plate was responsible for a sensational' dividend credited to Home Coming, who only had 20 ten shilling tickets invested on him, as against TOO on the favourite bracket, Royal Llmoud and Silver Salver. Tlie race is easily described. Homo Coming was the first away, and stayed there. He was followed into the straight by Night Recital, Night Parade, and Royal Limond, and although he was challenged by thia trio, in an exciting finish he hung on to beat Royal Limond by a head, with another head margin to Night Parade. Night Recital was two lengths back, in front of Appeal and Sharp Thorn. The winner was originally in the Chokebore stable, and is a half-brother by Winning Hit to Sailor's Hope, dam of Waterline. He has invariably suffered from soreness, and was sold some months back to his present owner for a small outlay. Won Prom End to End. ■ Red Shiner was the only withdrawal from the Washdyke Trot Handicap, and in a good betting # pool Plying Cloud was made a three hundred ticket better favourite than Red Shadow. This pair paid the dividends, but the latter led from end to end and beat the favourite pointlessly. Clear-Cat Cup Win. The field for the Timaru Cup was reduced to ten runners by the defection of Starshooter, Salmo Salar, and Valves, and in a total of over £I6OO High Court was better supported than Don Jose to the extent of close on £3OO. , All with the exception of Compris got away well from a walk-in start, and Don Jose immediately took up the running from Waving Corn, Taboo, and Beau Geste. Comprls ran out wide going out of the straight, but was up with Don Jose at the end of half a mile, and this pair were closely attended by a bunch headed by Mount Boa and Taboo, with Town Major, who had boon squeezed back, and Town Bank bringing up the rear. Don Jose had a slight advantage from Comprls entering the straight, and they were followed by Mount Boa, Waving Corn, Beau Geste, and Town Major, Don Jose completed his task in an impressive manner to beat the erratically ridden Comprls by two lengths, while Town Major put in a solid finishing run to beat Mount Boa for third money. High Court, Taboo, and Waving Corn were the next to finish. Don Jose had a clear-cut victory, and recorded his first success over a distance. Compris covered more ground than any-' thing elso in the race, and was rushed from last place to the leaders in the space of three furlongs, Ho will do better later with a strong horseman up. Town Major was sent back from the middle of the field the last place after the back stretch was entered upon, and his position at the finish, after having to go round the field at tho home turn, suggested he would have troubled the winner with fair treatment. The favourite was never in a forward position. He showed a little prominence on the outside of the bunch behind the leaders when headed for home, but made a poor showing over the final stretch. Taboo ran well for a mile, and so did Beau Geste, but Royal Game wos always In a realberth. Favourite’s Close Call, Charnieuse was supported dowu to loss than even money for the Tycho Hack Handicap, and shn duly won, but only after u close cull with the third choice, Al Jolson. The start was not a good one, Lord Thomond and Wise Choice being left badly. High Speed was the early loader, but was deposed by Arrow Maid at the far turn. The latter led Pixie Gold into the straight, but soon retired, nnd Al Jolson shot to the front, with Charnieuse following on his heels. Charineuse drew up on the outside ot Al Jolson inside the distance, and the pair settled down to a sustained finish. Charmense headed her rival, blit Al Jolson again had his nose in front, fifty yards from the post. Charmeuse, however, responded to a final call, and got in the deciding stride to gain tho verdict by a head. Wise Choice, who was last over the first furlong, finished with a rattle to secure third money, two lengths away, depriving Pixie Gold of the honour on the post. Poor Class Field.

The scratchins pen was freely used In the Kerrytown Hack Handicap, and uf the seven starters Assemble carried 70 tickets more than Audience. The latter piloted the Held Into the straight, but retired when tackled by Assemble, Waterpower, and Night Effort at the distance. A stirring finish ensued, Night Effort getting up to beat Assemble by half a length, with Waterpower a length away. Valves, Audi-

enec, and Carinthia were well back, together, next. A Final Surprise. The Flying Handicap sprang another surprise on investors, who voted strongly for the Silver Coot-Noteworthy bracket and Ranelagh. Again a poor start saw , Noteworthy and On Top left, the latter 1 especially,. standing the Held up several lengths In the first furlong. Arrowmir shot away with the lead when settled down, and was first into the straight from Silver Coot, Rin Tin Tin, and First Raid. The leader'had this trio settled inside the distance, where Noteworthy put in an appearance from tho back, and was overhauling Arrowmir at every stride. J. he latter however, had enough in hand to cross the line with half a length to the good Rin Tin Tin was only three-quar-ters of a length away, in front of the unlucky On Top, who showed a burst ot speed in the straight, Results in Detail By Telegraph—-Press Association.

NIGHTMARCH ON TRACK

Aucklanders for Trentham Dominion Special Service Auckland, October 16. After the heavy rain there was no grass track open at Ellerslie this morning, and work on the sand was uninteresting. Nightmare!) looks none the worse for his Sydney trip. He is apparently in fine condition, and worked nicely when trotted ypsterday. He leaves for Wellington with McAulay’s other charge, True Shaft, tonight, . ~ , Until Jamieson returns on Monday the composition of hie team for Trentham will not be known- , . . , ~ Roserlc and Royal Artist are possibilities for the southern trip, but no definite decision will bo arrived at until to-mor-row. . The two-vear-old Bonnylea was rather bad with kidney trouble yesterday, but it is expected to yield to treatment.

WANGANUI GALLOPS

Moroney Returns Home KOROKIO BRIGHTENING UP Dominion Special Service. Wanganui, October 16. Tho recent dry spell, with strong winds, has made the local tracks very hard, but steady rain yesterday took most _of the sting out of the ground, and the going was in good order this morning. Before breakfast on No. 1 track Pomp nnd Solange did a round at half-pace, aud then sprinted five furlongs in 1.6 J without being extended. Pomp looks well, and W. Rayner intends leaving for Trentham with him and Pedestal next Thursday, all going well. I’edestnl and Auctioneer were sent six furlongs together, and they ran the distance i>i 1.20 comfortably. Impetuous and Mislaid were given useful work. These twp fillies may make their initial appearance at Feilding. After breakfast Plain Jane, a five-year-old mare trained by C. Gordon, ran half a mile in 52sec. The Chief Ruler filly Hinewai slipped oyer three furlongs in 39sec., doing it nicely. ' . Zareue and Knollmere put in a circuit, finishing up at a fast clip. Queanbeyan and Paratoo were companions in a half-mile flutter, the latter being under a strong pull. The pair finished together in 55sec. Queanbeyan is to be talcen to Masterton for the Maiden on .Saturday. She was shaping well a couple of weeks ago, but her more recent work has not been impressive. The big Acre gelding recently purchased by Mr. W. Jury has had the name Onepiu bestowed ou him. He is a six-year-old out of a Zimmerman mare, and is to make his debut in the high-weight event at Waverley. He had a couple of lengths break on Fernden when they left the six-furlong peg this morning, and . the pair were together at the end, the time being 1.18 1-5. Fernden looks fit and well, and should be at his best for the Trentham meeting, where he will race provided Korokio keeps right. The filly is brightening up again, and Mr. Jury has hones she will be fit and well for the Taita Handicap, in which she is top-weight (9.4). W. D. Moroney left this morning for Tauherenikau with his team of nine. Track watchers here expect Grecian to run a big race in the principal event on Saturday, as he is in splendid fettle, and his track work has been good.

Richborough gives promise of making a good two-year-old, and tiie brother to Tenderden should run prominently in the Nursery on Saturday. Count Palatine is in great heart, the racing at Auckland having improved him. If he is kept for the New Zealand Cup he will be one of the hardest to beat in that event.

Tendcrden, Applodore, and Vertigern are all bright and well, and should run prominently. In fact, the condition of the team when it left here suggests that Moroney is likely to have a good innings during the next few weeks.

Acceptances for the first day of the Wellington Racing Club’s spring meeting and forefeit for the Harcourt Cup, are due at 9 o’clock to-night.

E. Manson is now located at Trentham, and is nt present riding out Marjoram. Pewa has been sold by Mr. Ormond to Mr. H. Neagle, of Greenmeadows. An invitation to attend the Masterton Racing Club’s meeting at the Opaki racecourse oi. Saturday has been accepted by Admiral C. C. Kayser and officers of the Dutch Naval Squadron. The Minister of Internal Affairs, Hon. P. A. de la Perrclle will also be a visitor, and an exceptionally heavy demand for tickets from Wellington residents has been received.

MASTERTON MEETING

Excellent Fields PRELIMINARY REVIEW The acceptances received lor the Masterton spring meeting to-morrow arc excellent. The course is in first-class order —never better —and so far as racing is concerned the fixture promises some interesting contests. New Zealand Cup candidates figure m the principal handicap aud in othei events the class of runner is of good average merit. The first race is timed to start at noon and a convenient train service win enable patrons to disembark at Opaki and entrain there after the last race. The Nursery Handicap contains several two-year-olds who have not yet raced and for that reason the result may trick backers. Of those who have had the colours up, Cape Gold, Golden Wings and Maritime have run well. Esteem, who is closely related to Commendation, represents clasd and he is said to have shown early promise, though later he went off. He is not likely to run unless he is all right again. Aeis and Invite have shaped promisingly on the Trentham tracks and possibly some of the other training centres represented may have a dark horse. Golden Wings and Esteem may be best supported. Form in the Maiden Stakes is represented by Buskier, Jayson and Valrewa. Tobaceoland, Zephyrus, -Mythology, Half Acre and Saltpot have been doing good local work. Star of Gold, from New’s stable, showed speed last season, and his stable has had a lot of success with maidens. On form Jayson and Baskier 1 should be the favourites, but the Trentham pair, Mythology (who will be ridden by Gray) and Tobaccoland, should go well. Playground shaped like an unproven at Otaki and lie should be hard to beat in the Highweight. Rameses is coming on and if all right again Ben Hur would be a distinct possibility. Kilmezzo cannot be left out of calculations, and Spearopa, if started here, will be in demand. Playground and Rameses may show up. In the Lansdowne Handicap Brilliant Light, Cluny and Lady Rene will appeal on their Otaki form. Tripping ran a fair race in the Hawke’s Bay Guineas nnd might be troublesome, and Hawkshaw looks a likely lightweight. Brilliant Light and Lady Rene seem a likely pair. Merry Damon, topweight in the Masterton Handicap, should be improved by his race at Otaki and the long Masterton straight of over two furlongs should be all in his favour as he has to come from the back. Pahu will be well backed on the showing he gave last week. Marjoram will have to improve, and Black Mint is hardly likely to be seen at his best, Grecian should run a good race. He was very unlucky on the last day at Auckland. Spearmiss would have a chance if produced at her best. Billion or Duellona should show up among the lightweights. Duellona has been working well. Grecian and Merry Damon appeal. Otaki form points to Dainty Ways, in the Lawn Handicap’, in which Sir Liinond, Fitzquex, Robbie’s Mistake, Kiriana and Spearopa should run well. The topweight, Tunbridge, is also a useful sort. Dainty Ways and Spearopa may be prominent. Atholspear and Habit, who are at the head of the list in the Grandstand Handicap, have not raced recently, but Habit is working nicely and most likely Atholspear has also freshened up since his return from Sydney. Miss Ransom appears exceptionally well at present and her winning form nt Otaki looks hard to dispose of. Full Mark and Veronese look the best of the others, though

if Dolomite is caught in the mood his track work suggests lie would bo hard. Duellona is also in this race and should make a showing if started. Miss Ransom and Habit may be on hand at the finish.

There is a big field in the last race, the Electric Handicap, and being only a scurry over five furlongs and a half, post positions and riders will count for a good deal and influence the result. Portray, Hunting Call, Baskier, Crash, White Doe, Valrewa and Rule Britannia arc all smart over the distance and good beginners. Water Spear is another who should go well. Hunting Call and White Doe may show up.

NO WASTING HERE Increasing weight is the nightmare of the majority of jockeys, but it has no terrors for A. H. Eastwood, who recently returned from a trip to Canada and the State, where he acted as coxswain to the New Zealand rowing crews. Eastwood readied his home in Christchurch on Wednesday morning of last week, and hurried on to Dunedin the same day to ride at Wingatui. Asked if he had put on weight during the trip, he admitted that he was 61b. heavier, but oven at .that poundage was not more than 6.3.

TRENTHAM GALLOPS

Miss Ransom Goes Well

MASTERTON CANDIDATES

The weather was fine and clear tor training work at Trentham yesterday morning. The tan and middle of the trial grass were open and both were used by horses going fast. Both tracks are at present firm and fast, and their pace increased as the morning wore on, some of the concluding gallops being extremely smart from a time point of view. There would be practically no difference between the two tracks. Malayan was first out, and was restricted to pacing on the tan. He appeared to move short. ~ Open Cheque and Tea Queen ran six furlongs in Imin. 18£sec., both doing it well. The latter had a good weight

finished well clear of Taura Lad lit the end of half a mile in Slsec., the last three in 38isec., and could have done better. She carried a light weight, but all her recent work has been very promising. . • Hunting .Call ran a half m 50isee., and did it well. Invite hit out very boldly m running three furlongs with Moab Queen, doing it better, in 38sec. Lady Pam and Miss Ransom were responsible for a fine piece of work in running seven furlongs in Imin. 29sec., the last half in 51jscc. Miss Ransom was going the better of the pair at the finish, and altogether it was a brilliant effort, pointing to the fact that Miss Ransom is particularly well at present. . rf

Habit and Arikinui,, not ridden out, ran five furlongs in Imin. 4sec., the last half in 52sec. Both carried fair weights and worked well. Habit will run at Masterton, and will have the services of H. Gray. Duellona broke away at the seven furlongs just ahead of Dolomite and beat him home by a couple of lengths in the good time of Imin. 29Jsec., the last half in 50sec. Duellona worked well, and Dolomite’s performance was satisfactory, although he did not appear to be going too generously at the finish. Hy*iuna was better than Sir Liinond over seven furlongs in Imin. 32sec., the last half in 52sec. Hynanna could have done a little better.

Peep and Zephyrus finished clear of Intruder over four furlongs in 49Jsee. The first pair went nicely. Rameses and Historic did a good working gallop over seven furlongs_ run in Imin. 34sec.. the last four in 54 3-ssec. Joie de Vai and General Assembly sprinted six in Imin. lSJsec. Both were flat out at the finish, but it was an excellent effort for maidens. White Doe and Half Acre ran five in Imin. 4sec.. from almost a stand, the ■ last half in 491 sec. Both went well. White Doe doing it better. She will have the services of H. N. Wiggins at Masterton. ‘ Black Mint made his reappearance on the tracks, and did pace work on the tnn. His trouble in Dunedin was a bruised heel. .He is now all right again, but that was his first work for a week. z Cape Gold and Movietone ran four in 50sec.. Ahis. picked up by Lyrical, running three in 37sec. Dainty Ways got off behind Xiriana at the six furlongs, took the outside running. and finished better in Imin. 164 sec., the last half in 51sec.—a first-class gallop. Crash finished his work by sprinting five furlongs, but was not timed. He moved well. Maritime and Sailing just broke 50sec. for four furlongs. Maritime doing it the better of the pair. Rothen sprinted four furlongs in olsec. After breakfast Tobaccolaud finished his work by running home over the last half in 54see. The Hunting Song two-year-old Cottesmore in T. Young's stable and Gay Court sprinted three furlongs in 36 sec. Arrowzone ran four furlongs in 49.1sec., a good effort, for he carried a welter weight. On his track work this disappointing gelding should win races. Marjoram was going better than Saltpot at the end of fire furlongs in Imin. 34see., finishing together. It was a good effort on the part of the maiden Saltnot. who has made great improvement lately. D Bnsli will ride him nt Masterton. ran six furlongs in Imin.
