Trentham and would have a stone and a half more oh his back under handicap conditions. Others with chances ;are Sudan and Hinerawe among the ■ older horses and Areas, Nigger Boy, Authoress, Classform, and Moorsotis among the three-year-olds. The favourites promise to be STERNCHASE, SUDAN, and WINGS OF SONG or ARCAS. LINWOOD HANDICAP. The Linwood Handicap in recent years has provided some surprise results, with Janet Gaynor and ToroKoura two rank outsider winners in the last two years, so that investors iw-ill be on the watch for something that might again pay all expenses at |v single strike. On Trentham form Raeburn and Duncannon stand out, and ithe'former's chance particularly reads a well through the subsequent efforts of Colonel Bogey at the Wellington Meeting. Verey Lights, Montessa, and Hearth were winners last weekend, and Flame Queen, Asia, end Blasealong! have also raced well lately. One who j might continue: the surprises is Ladyj Drake, who is better than her race form.to date. The public will probably; prefer RAEBtJRN, DUNCANNON, and MONTESSA. NEW ZEALAND CUl\ The New Zealand Cup is again a most open race, and there are several horses who will be backed with confidence. The known two-miiers ln the field are Royal Chief and Arctic King, ; each ready to reproduce his best and therefore among the logical ways. The ! improvers who may be expected to get the distance include Lady Furst and Yours Truly* who will be among the favourites,- and Centrepoise, though there isa doubt about his breed at two miles, is.sure because of.his winning form to have a strong following Peerless, who has been hanging on the border of form- fbr some time, might at last eroSg it in.such a race as this, and Others worthy of consideration are Ned Cuttle, Thermidor, ToOley Street, Lowenberg, Wagner, • Hunting Cat, Passaform, Capricious, Balmenter, Mishhia, atid The Wrecker. This array of possibility may be reduced to a likeliest trio in YOURS TRULY, ARCTIC KING, and ROYAL CHIEF. WELCOME STAKES. The proposition that deserves lo be accepted as the best thing of the day is Enrich in the Welcome Stakes, as on any known form he is a class above those listed to oppose him. Still, this is the race in Which Beaulivre. from the same Stable,. was sensationally .beaten by Winning Rival last year. The . best of the other form appears to be that of Miss Hallomet. Absolvej Gold Flight, and Doria, with Shikari, a promising Bulandshar colt from the Winning Rival stable, perhaps likeliest ot those yet to demonstrate their worth.
