SOUTH CANTERBURY HUNT

SOME HORSES" IN FORM

' (By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post.'')

/ . CHKJSTCHU&CH, This Day. The South Canterbury Hunt Club's Annual Meeting will be held at Washdyke to-morrow. Tho eight races have attracted uaoful fields, the three jumping events having filled particularly -well, and they i "will provido a lot of interest, especially .the South Canterbury Steeplechase, in, ■which seven Grand National candidates', trill have a run. ; Tide first of the jumping events is the • opening race, the Hadlow Hack and Hunters' Hurdles, for which there was ' an acceptance of sine. Morena is a-young 'hurdler who haa improved with every race, 'and, though, now up in the weights, be will keep his opponents very busy. ■Full Measure has shown some useful hurdle, form in Auckland, where he was a runner at the Great Northern Meeting. Camisader won at Washdyke a year ago, but he has not had a race of any kind, since December. Harrises showed useful form when he won at Washdyke two months ago.. Nine of Spades has not raced for some time, and Royal Mint has uad only one start recently. Dainty Ways, | All Smiles, and Night Attire havo no form. , , In the Tesehemaker Hunt Cup, Ori-' flamb, with two recent successes to Ins credit, is entitled to every respect.- He meets Deportment 51b worse than at Kiccatton last Saturday, and over half a mile longer journeyy and -Deportment will /need to improve to reveise the places. Heather Lad was second to French Fleet at the Dunedin Meeting last month. Sir Richard won in good style at Ashburton and. 'on < figures ho needs only to repeat the form to win again, as he meets Oritlamb on nearly a stone better terms. Royal Land jean a good race when he flnjshed fourth at Oamaru early this month. Of the others, Peterette went very well at Kiccarton last Saturday, being in front *ill she fell at the second last fence.' - The South Canterbury Steeplechase is ■the event of the day, and with seven Grand National candidates in the-field, it ■will arousei great interest. Snowfall is rei ported to have made good progress lately, 5 he may require the longer- journey and the bigger fences at Riccarton to show ™ Be**- liucess has good recent form over hurdles and country, and he is jiwt the typo-to run well. High Pitch is a BOTW4 at the game, but his schooling effort-at Rwcarton this week augurs yell for his prospects as a steeplechaser. Xiora K«nald has not raced for thiee years -ana can be left alono at present. Okopua, -a double winner ,at Trentham, is an improvjng young horse, who will have to ba reckoned with. Calham disappointed last Saturday. Lancer, on the other hand," went woll till he ran off, possibly not through his own fault. Nylotis has been very consistent this winter and ran second to French Fleet at Washdyke last month. Apache H. backward.
