ON TRENTHAM TRACKS

CANDIDATES FOR SOUTH

GAY COURT WORKS WELL

(By "Rahgatira,")

The weather was fine after ainother heavy frost.this morning for the final galloping here of most of the ■ Trerithain horses for Biccarton and: Australia.' Several other horses with'early spring engagements were' also1 worked fast. The outside of the'course properwas used, aud, although soft, was a shade faster than on Thursday. •■' ;■■

Autopay (S_. Wilson) was" going easily at his own pleasure .a length' behind Solitaire I. (W. H. Jones) throughout seven furlongs in. lmin: 34 2-ssec, thri last half-mile in 54 3-ssec. The Sydney candidate never exerts5 himself in track trials. ■. : ' ' v'• :■"'■•■■? ■■■■']

Gay Court (W. E. Shand) found.the reluctant Prince Ppmbal (Leach)* of- ho use whatever to hini over the final part'; of six furlongs in lmin 19 3-ssec, coin-! ing home tlie last half-mile in, 52; 4-5 ■sec and finishing about eight lengths in front. : .' ':. ■<.■ -. •'" ■.;,'■ ; Normandy (H.. Hunt) bowled along from the seven furlongs to. tne ■ half-; mile, r and,, picked up by : , Sage . (NVS. Jones), came, home from that point a couple of lengths in front of -his companion in 52 l-ssec. He registered lmin 37sec for the full distance...... : ; ■.■,-;■ '

Gold Sand' (Leach) ; and Colossical (O Pntchaid, junr.) were well matched o-\ er fi\ c furlongs in linin 6 4 sscc, the last half-mile in 53sce. Gold Sand finished a short half:head •in front. Tobaceoland \T. Y&ung) lan aiv furlongs alono in lmm 21 2-ssec, requiring -53 2-ssee. for tho. last half-mile. The Sun (Wilson) went seven, furlongs in linin 35sec, the final half-mile m 54 2 osec. Stag Horn (J. jK. Robertson) and Miss Beatnce,(l Rohloil) sprinted a couple of fuilongs down the stiaight. Golden Horn (G T. Dick) and Cape of Good Hope (Shand) ran halt a mile in 32 3 fisee. '

Posy (Dick), St Bernard (Leach), and Platter (Prttehard, junr.) lan three furlongs along the back, Posy finishing jn front in 38 2 ssee. Platter is T. Pntchard's tea Tray—Lady Violet rising two-year-old gelding. Vivette (E. Moriis) did a similar task alone in 43sec easily. Pahu (Wilson) and Town Beauty (F. W. 80-call) cantered around, then did a strong working gallop together o\er another lound, the last mile being covered in lmm 53 1 ssec. They remained on terms till a furlong from the post, whon Pahu drew out to finish about three lengths, m front. Blight Song (Wilson) ran a mile nicely in lmm 49sec, taking 53 3-sscc for tho first half and 55 2 ssco for the last half. ( Cape Tair (Shand) and Sir Pombal (Dick) lan half a, mile in 52 2 ssec. Gaysong (Shand) did a similar task alone in 51 2 ssec. Cottcsmore (Young) finished a head in front of JTaary Girl (Wilson) at tho end of three fmlongs in 39sec, both galloping very freely.

Royal Game and Black Mint, each with Kohloff in tho sadSle, were separately schooled over the pony hurdle, then over, the three .schooling hurdles. Koyal Game jumped cleanly and gave easily his best display to date. His only fault was to dip on landing ovei the" second fence. Black Mint, although fencing with little pace on, also showed more i .stylo in his^ effort than, he has on previous occasions. Again' he^mamfested b. reluctance to cross the second fence in the. run.
