Those eight horses should provide the winner. The f.ivonnte is likely to be the BlacksmithHenry of Navarre bracket, especially as the distance will suit Blacksmith, who w.i 6 the leader much of the way in the big hurdles at Trentham. Invictua is now moving up in the weights, but contrasted with Constant Sun he is not badly handicupped. The distance looks too ehort for Callamart, but Esteem will find it to bis liking. Luna Lux will require to show' improvement. Possible lightweights are Don Erma and Manawatu.

Limbohm, a eood winner second time up recently at Dannevirke, looks likely to be one of tho hardest again, and his main opposition may come from tho unlucky Gay Court and Rereatu. both <it w-noni are overdue for a win. Foreien Qu? e, n- Golden Chant, Ida Merline, Ruin, and Mnhora are other prospects, but Tiger f.am, Catalogue, and Korokio will probably require a race.
