FAVOURITES WELL OUSTED

The better-fancied horses were decisively ousted from the dividends in the Rekereke Hack Handicap. Hinc Ra, glow to' begin in a straggling start, never raised a real effort, nor did Martinborough .who was last away with Mazzini. Lifeguard, however, was the first out, so his defeat into a moderate third was due to his own incompetence. ; ' , Huntette was a surprise on the public but her win was apparently, not altogether a shock to her connections. In her previous appearance, at Woodville a week earlier, she was supported only to the extent of £11 10s, even less than Pango, who paid over a score for'second; but on Saturday she had the confidence represented by £18.3 10s in a similar-sized pool. She was third following Lifeguard andEUquette to the straight, and though she then ran out onto the track,, she had no trouble in suppressing the leaders and finally withstanding a late claim from Alloa by nearly a length. . This winner is a Gisbprne visitor racing in the colours of Mr. C. G. Ancell, whose jacket is known in these parts through the' exploits, of Huntingdon, Hunting Star, and others. Last season she won a number of races in the interests of the Hastings trainer W D Young. She is a four-year-old chestnut daughter of Hunting Song, and she has shown before that she possesses a lot of pace for short distances at least. ■ . Alloa, still a maiden, went one of his best races and he may yet be capable of winning for fris patient owner He was always next behind the ' winner ■in the running, and he made a sharp stab through in the lastfurlong that gave momentary Promise of securing him his first win. Lueguatd and Etiquette both failed to run on after receiving a., big initial advantage. The field was strung out at the end almost as badly as it was at the beginning." RESULTS IN DETAIL.
