RACING AT FOXTON

TOMORROW'S GREAT CARD

HORSES IN LIKELY FORM

Really splendid acceiitauces have been received for'the Foxtou Racing Club's| Second Winter Meeting at I'oxton tomorrow, and if the present fiae weather holds, as it promises to. do, there should be another very1 successful . clay for . the club. I -T.he. course; is one that never becomes heavy, Because .of its sandy formation, and the: going is almost certain to be good. An interesting innovation will be the running of-a steeplechase on the course. The programme arid jn'ospects are as folipAvs!'— r "•■■■'■.'■ ■ ■■• 11.30 :PAIAKI HURDLES; of 75 sots ; .1 mile .<;•'.'-. : . and 5 furlougs. .

Tenacre has yet to be'tried at the game, but Fine Acre and Tunbridge are a good pair of fast junipers in at a handy weight, and, as both stood up. to their Trentham racing, they are likely to be troublesome to tliu 'hunter. There will be good followings for Winnagan and Tuubridge (or Fine Acre).

Following his recent win at Napier Park, Red Flush will draw good support in the Awahou Hack Handicap, and he should set the others a tough task. Palace was just beaten in the corresponding event last month, and the firm going will suit his style, but he appears to have, his quota of weight. Sir Romeo and -Morrath (who filled minor place at the Manawatu Hunt) and Rcdtop will also be backed, and Miss Hushabye is capable .of providing a surprise. There is form to poiiit to Red Flush, Palace, and Sir Romeo. 3.15: WHABAXGI HANDICAP, of 75 'soys; 7 :■ furlongs.

She certainly cannot complain about her assessment. . The Tiger (who won the corresponding race last month), Royal Hunting and Playground (if reserved) have the likeliest recent form of the remainder. Navaho and Sir Pombal are also not without some chance of success. The book undoubtedly seems to point to Foreign Queen, Royal Hunting, and Playground. 4.0 : RANGIOTU HACK HANDICAP, of GO soys; ■ : ..•'■. 5Vj furlongs.

Hyblscus. . •••• .8 3 . • There is a fi'u.al . large card for the Rangiotu Hack Handicap, but several ot the candidates are also engaged in the curlier, maiden event, whose running should provide a line on their chances. Hunting Lodge's head' defcjit under the same weight at Jlartou 'on' Wednesday must make her an undoubted prospect .here,, and her'most serious opposition may come from Nebulae (whom she beat by VA lengths at even weights at the Manawatu Hunt), Wasteland, and Golden Chant. Hybiseus and Whetuma arc a pair to be considered lower down, and, the maidens will probably also have shown possibilities among them in their earlier engagement. A trio who should perform creditably are Hunting Lodge, Nebulae, and Wasteland. " '..;.'.
