PROSPECTS FOR TO-MORROW

(By "Sir Lancelot.")

In the Second Hack Hurdles;, two furlongs shorter than in the corresponding event on the opening day, Explorer has been raised 131b for the first day's win. The other place-getters, Luke and Chummy, are not in. Wirokino, Lepanto, and Zela are the fresh horses.'engaged. The distance may suit Sensitive and Zeus.

Sycorax put up good.time in'the Silverstream Handicap on the opening day, and has only 41b more to carry in. the Hutt Handicap. Risingham, fourth in the Thompson, and Trespass, third in the Railway, both ran prominently on the opening day in better company. With a better and stronger horseman' up in the Muritai Handicap, Checkmate may be close up at-the finish; He meets Flight Commander, third in the Silverstream Handicap, on Sib worse terms.

Several horsed engaged in the Autumn Handicap, eleven furlongs, showed some form nt.the Easter Meetings. Kilmoon has 4lb more than when he rah second in tlie Great Autumn Handicap, and ma.y be the choice of backers. Bonetter has 8!b less than when she won the Tvsidssmen's Handicap, ten furlongs, ai Ellersiie. Imaribbon has 41b more than she won with on the second day at

i-.eilding.

In the Pacific Handicap Baceful meets La, Paix and Wake on 91b and 131b worse ■ terms respectively. The. Waira-rapa-owned colt may again be good •enough to win.

In the Gold Cup Amythas will be given another 'opportunity to display liis' galloping ability.

In the Suburban Handicap Bindle has gone up 111b, and Bon Spec 51b, while .Tigritiya has-been dropped a pound. The last named is well placed, and in her best form would keep the. others busy.

Early Dawn's Riccarton form, second to Sedd-el-Bahr in the Final Handicap, makes her out to be better class than the others in. the Belmont Handicap. Parorangi will be better suited by the short distance./ and Paoanui may again .finish in front of those she defeated on the first day.
