WANGANUI TRACK NOTES

(By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post.") : WANGANUI, sth July. , With- but two of the Wanganui-trained horses figuring on the list of acceptors for the opening day of the Wellington Meeting, nothing locally in the way of fast work has been done save,by Just So and King Mart." This morning they were as J. soda ted in a really creditable gallop over five furlongs on number one track. Both were ridden by lightweights and they were well out. King Mart having the inside position, while Kiosk's half-sister,.was right oui on the outside rails. • They got away together t(. a flying stari-, and ran from the five to the four-furlong post in 12 1-5 sec, keeping up the pace to take 24 for the first quarter The next furlong was covered in,l2sec, making 36 for the three, and both were under a pull as they: ran home to record lmin. : 4sec for the journey,-King j Mart having the advantage at the post by,a. clear length.;. ■'...'.:■ .'■,"'' King Mart was doing it nicely all the way, and he finished very well. The King Mark gelding has fined down a lot with his racing at Hastings, and has every indication of going on with it now that he has struck form. - Just So is perhaps not quite so forward as W. H. Dwyer might wish, seeing that she- has to meet Limerick's half-brother, Roscrea, in the Trial Plate, but when the day comes it will be found that she will play her part .well. She has all her share of. the speed that her dam, llosie Desmond, has transmitted to her offspring, among whom are numbered that one-time good sprinter Mireusonta and the equally brilliant Kiosk... W. H. Dwyer has put Limosa into work again, and this morning the Liniond mare, was once more on the tracks for the first time since she had to be given a spell after the Mahawatu Autumn Meeting! She appears •: to' have got rid of the joint, trouble that necessitated her retirement. Kiosk is also back again to prepare for another season at the game. : Just So and King Mart, leave here on' Monday for Trentham. '
