NOTES AND COMMENT
Overdue.— Dash 9' Dublin, who returned to the winning list at the South Canterbury Meeting, appeared to have a bright future ahead of him when he won early as a three-year-old. However, he went through the balance of the term without again winning. He is bred to make good, being by Salmagundi from the Boniform mare Fairform, dam of those good ones Rin Tin Tin, Charmaine, Tauramai, Passaform, etc. Well Related.— Fur Coat, winner of the hack sprint at the South Canterbury Meeting, has not done a great deal of racing, but might go higher than his dam, White Doe. The dam did several seasons' racing, but the majority of her successes came on the Nelson-West Coast circuit. She is a half-sister to the New Zealand Cup winner Arctic King, but whereas White Doe was by Royal Stag her younger relative was by Rabbi. Fur Coat was got by Pink Coat, a well-performed son of Hunting Song. Likely Sort. —After running a great race over a mile on the opening day at Trentham, Lenardb came into stronger favour for the hack distance event on Labour Day, the fact that W. J. Broughton had taken the mount probably playing a part to that end. However, he did not repeat his finishing run. He was the first of the progeny of the Captain Bunsby mare Mona Lisa, who traces through Phrosa to that wonderful matron CowL Unfortunately, Phrosa's stock have not attained the heights of those of some of her sisters. . A Walk-over.— With no race of m> Iportance at the Salisbury (England) Meeting in July, the attendance was small and the racing uneventful.. For the first time since the outbreak of war there was a walk-over, Fleur de Lys having no opposition in the Yeovil Stakes.
