RACING AT FEILDING

OUTLOOK FOR TO-MORROW

SOME HORSES IN FORM

The Feilding Jockey Club's Spring -Meet"iris has. drawn excellent acceptances for . the'ogeiiing day to-morrow, ?ind, with the '• "weather outlook good,- thera is promise of . most: successful racing. The: track will be fast,-unless rain should unexpectedly fall,: .; and -the times lire likely to te; fast. ; the >lvi). has adopted the three dividend system, "ana Svill 'pay three dividends in . iielda of nine totalisator numbers, and two dividends in fields o£ between five and ; eight (inclusive)' numbers. It is likely that there will be three dividends in at ; least sis'events.-;, ' ■ ■ The programme and prospects are: — ' 12.0.—WJITUNA HANDICAP HURDLES, of 100 soys; about ono mile and a half and

• ; . . Jliss Hastings ■ 3 0 : Hawkes Bay jumpers • appear to hold the likeliest hand in the Waituna Hurdles, and Manuiri,; who recently won at Hastings, may ; .be the public elect. Hastings and Kimbo are two others from the quarter who will also be supported. Among the others; the seasoned Okopua ' and Laokoon may be hardest. The Levin ivirmer, Day Lass, was not really tested on Saturday, and there was no special merit m...her defeat1 of three novices.- There will be followings for Mauuiri and Miss Has-; •. -tings..-.,,;•... ;''.''■' - ; ■ 12.43.—AOKAXGI TRIAL PLATE, of SO soys; .' '-.... .. sis furlongs.

~ There "is not -jnuch. form to'assist investors in the Aorangi" Ti-ial Plate, for i xiorses that have;not iron.a race at time ;, oi starting. The most promising of the v lot -who have been seen but lately looK ■to be Maypay and' Boon. Beau Gallante ■ js one who will be backed to beat them if produced,' for he made \au excellent t showing at the 3lanawatu Hunt. Meeting at his one previous start. Another,'likely pair among the fresh horses are Grand Joy and Chief Line. Two worth noting : are. Beau Gallante and Boon. .: I.2G.—FEILDING CUP,-of 200 "sore; one mile - . :. and a quarter.

,: The Feildihg Cup'has attracted a really splendid field, anil, the issue-is."extremely ■ open., Gay Cquri; is the form horse, and, ■ still among'ithe seven stones/ he certainly tooKs\like taking a hand in- the*decision. -■ His task on this occasion, however, will be.no easy one, and 'among the rivals who ■:■ may trouble him seriously are Grand .Jury, La Modernej "an3"Cluny. Grand "Jury was beaten half a head by ' Refresher' at ;, Waverley at his last start, but Refresher ' has been a.-winner at.the distance since. >■ La" Moderne's* Derby and Oaks efforts ■■; must, alsb put-.'her in line for a good ' chance. These four, of course, do not in- : elude all the possibilities.' The public may ; incline to Gay: Court and Grand Jury. i 2.B.—TWENTY-SEVENTH FEILDING.

If; the Kpwhai Hack Handicap is as Toughly ; rujvteaxly as, the similar event at Levin /was anything might •win it. The horse who stands out on .recent showings is Aga Khan, for he was running on very solidly close up in. each of Ms engagements at Riccarton. ' He'has not yet raced at the. distance, but he has won at seven furlongs and looks like staying, with Kahunoke out of the way his most formidable opponents look to 'be Lady Spy,. Coristanf-Sun, Arikitea, and ■ Chock Say, the best o£ whom may be Constant Sjh, who gave much promise last season, and the; little raced Hastings winner, Chock Say. Joiede "Val and Strome/are others with chances. Two who will be supported -are Aga Khan and Chock Say. 3.3S.—I'LYING HANDICAP, of 120 soyS; six ■"■■:■- ■ furlongs.^

_ Backers are faced with another even issue m the Flying .Handicap. Form this' Certainly points to Orapaiand All ilumbug,. but there are numerous other prospects;. Orapai Has galloped bfi.lliantly fimce.hisj Trentham.win, and Alt Humbug Mron..too easily; twice early in the "season to be passed'by lightly. The'■ best' of the others; may prove to be Consent, Knollmere, Koyal- Koutihe,. and Sir ' Pombal. Consent was disappointing a couple; of months back,'but he is likely; to Jiave-come on snnce, and he ia now dropping in the ' weights, Knollmere was narrowly ieaten by Korokio at his .only previous" start this season. Among the favourites will be Qrapar and All Humbug. V:: ' . 4,ll:—rilZßOT HACK HANDICAP, of 90 ■'•■•■■■ soys; six'furlongs.'. ■.

A not yery brilliant lot is engaged in the Fitzrpy Hack, Handicap, and. oh -their Levin showing the' Gisnorne pair, and Good Hunting, should'.bel hard to eettle. . They race in ..different interests, and the better of-.tliom may be' Aiguille. Farmer: looks to hold the best recentcredentials afnorig the rest, but- Haulbowline, Attentive, and Korei-oa are' three having, their first, race this .season who may also make bold showings.' Ivoreroa is the Kangitiro three-y^ar-old' who.Vwon at Feildihg last Ea»ter. at "his'firsf start, and he has raced only once : since. , Gold Gleam also requires consideration," and Headmaster's Levin effort allows' of im-

provement. The public may favour the elect of the, Nixon pair (Aiguille or Good Hunting) and Farmer. ::. v ■'';.'. -.- -S.O.—KIWITEA HANDICAP, of 110 soys; seven ' . .; : furlongs. . . :

Recent winning form is poorly represented in. the Kiwitea Handicap, and Fiji has paid for his solitary success this season. One who-is likely to beat him at the difference in weights is Habit; whom the distance-will suit, and: the unlucky. La Poupee may also be up to accounting for him, and incidentally may put her first win On the records since her successful two-year-old days. Tigerism and Orby'fe Choice are "well placed among the others. Juggle1, appears lucky to:: be in O ii the minimum for her few turns' over the fences. Two who may be prominent at the end are. Habit and La. Poupee.
