WANGANUI TROTS

Good Fields For To-day HORSES IN FORM (By “Overcheck.”) The Wanganui 'Trotting Club’s meeting will he brought to a conclusion today. The fields generally are stronger than on the first day, and this should result in keener racing. The programme is as follows: — BOROUGH HANDICAP, of £O5: 3.49 class; unhoppled trotters. One mile and a halfCaptain Bolt . scr Bell Heather . 24 Guyetta ser Wrackless ... 36 Kraal scr Ando Patch ... 4S Native Tree ... ser Black Native .. 48 Native Bird .. ser Survivor .... fill Native Princess scr Arapai 84 Worthy Member ser Mabel Chimes . 81 Worthy Princess scr Last Saturday’s form rather points to Wraekless, Ando Patch, and Native Princess in the Borough Handicap. The latter established a substantial lead in the early stages of the Kirkwood Handicap but stopped badly over the last portion of the journey. The race and the extra work she has had during the week should find her in better shape to-day. Wraekless finished well on Saturday, but had too much ground to make up. He should •soon secure winning brackets. Audo Patch lost a lot of ground in the early part of last week’s race and then won, so his penalty of 24 yards should not seriously prejudice his chances to-day. IMPROVERS’ HANDICAP, ot £6O; 3.43 clas£. One mile and a halt. Cassidy scr Llewellyn’s Pet 24 Juggler ser Te Moki 24 King's Play .. scr Casino 36 King Franz ... scr Dillon Bond .. 3G Pttkeuri scr Derby Thorpe . 30 St. Hal scr Plutus 36 Tecta scr Supertax ... 48 Worthy Spray scr Cassidy is racing consistently, and his turn may come in the Improvers’ Handicap. Others that are sure to have plenty of supporters are Llewellyn's Pet and Casino. SUBURBAN HANDICAP, of £7O; 3.37 class. One mile and a half. Allworthy .. scr Harvester .... 24 Gold Seam .... sei - Le Chenault .. 24 Vesta Ray .... ser Orleigh Mills . 24 Insolvent ... 12 Red Gold 24 Bolinda King . 24 Transworthy . 24 Allworthy, Insolvent, and Transworthy are a likely trio in the Suburban Handicap. Transworthy and Allworthy were first and second respectively in the Foster’s Handicap last Saturday, while Insolvent separated Harvest In and Bolinda King in the Eastbrook Handicap last week, and may be expected to do better soon. Possibly Insolvent will carry the bulk of the investments. LIVERPOOL HANDICAP, of £125; 4.45 class. Two miles. Bonnie Direct scr Nelson’s Chum . 12 Storm Queen . scr Smooger (t.) .. 24 Blondie ser Guymond 36 Gay Sister .... 12 Sylvia Sydney 60 Bonnie Direct, Storm Queen, and Smooger are newcomers in the Liverpool Handicap, and of these Storm Queen may prove to be the best. Guymond incurred a penalty of 24 yards for his win last Saturday, and Sylvia Sydney has gone back 12 yards for her success in the sprint race. Still it would appear that these two will again race prominently, and they may follow Storm Queen in order of favouritism. STEWARDS’ HANDICAP, of £7O; 3.5 class. One mile nnd a quarter. Azel Maid ... ec» Tecla scr Great Vanity . scr Travelwell ... ter Ideal ser Guy Zolock .... 24 Juggler scr To Moki 24 King’s Grtide .. scr Casino 36 King Bruce .. ser Dushka 36 Mantaku scr Plutus 36 Pauline Dillon . scr Trevor de Oro . 36 Silver Black ... ser Supertax 48 Dushka won so impressively last week that he is sure to be one of the popular fancies in the Stewards’ Handicap. Travelwell ran a good third last Saturday, and with Plutus and Casino may follow Dushka in the order of favouritism. BALLANCE HANDICAP, of £75; unhoppled trotters; 5.0 class. Two miles. Audo Patch ... ter Mabel Chimes . 24 Bell Heather .. «er Arapai 30 Black Native .. ser Header 36 Blue Blood .... scr Bronte 48 Captain Bolt .. scr Earl Bingen .. 49 Guyetta scr Modern Lady . 48 Native Princess scr Fleet Arrow .. 60 Survivor scr Waikato Prince t>o Aerial Boy .... 12 Last week’s form rather suggests that the Arapai-Earl Bingen brracket, Waikato Prince and Mabel Chimes will be the best supported in the Ballance Handicap. Bronte is a newcomer, however, that niny be capable of creating a surprise.' LOUIS COHEN MEMORIAL HANDICAP of £7O; 2.23 class. One mile. Allworthy .... scr Bolinda King .. 12 Great Vanity .. scr Harvest In ..... 12 Hemlock Hero scr Orleigh Mills ..12 Iron Man scr Red Gold 12 Insolvent .... scr Transworthy . 12 Allworthy. Transworthy, and the bracket, Insolvent-Red Gold, arc sure to command respect in the Louis Cohen Handicap. Red Gold was ope of the unlucky ones last week, the starter’s assistant, who was in charge of the 24 yards barrier, failing to let those on that mark away with the rest of the field. Then after catching the field he tangled through jumping a saddle-cloth which was blown in front of him. Possibly the bracket will carry the bulk of the investments. FAREWELL HANDICAP, of £80: 2.vj class. One mile and a quarter. Blondie scr Lord Wrack . 24 .Storm Queen . scr Guymond ... 36 Gay Sister .... 12 Edna Worthy 48 Nelson's Chum 12 Sylvia Sydney . 48 Gav Sister is nicely placed in the Farewell Handicap, and she now meets Sylvia Sydney on 12 yards better terms than when she ran second on Saturday last. Storm Queen. and Blondie did not contest the sprint event last week, and their presence strengthens to-day’s field. Of these Storm Queen may receive most support. Possibly Gay Sister. Storm Queen, and Sylvia Sydney will be preferred.
