DUNEDIN CUP RACK a [By Old Identity.]
Tho Dunedin Cup races start to-morrow. This morning all the horses engaged did sprinting.
Golden King is now regarded as a doubtful starter in the Cop. J, Olsen will probably have the mount on Bee. Rorkc’s Drift is to bo ridden by W. Robinson; Arthur Oliver, who came down in khaki, is engaged for John Barleycorn ; F. K. Jones will ride Adjutant; Ardenvhor mav bo steered by AndcrLon ; and Snub is to ha.vo Hewitt as pilot. It was not quite settled, so far as was known at lunch lime to-day, whether United Service is to start or not. He bled after his gallop on Saturday. Tho experts -were saying to-day that they could pick the Gup in four—Bee, Rorke’s Drift, Snub, and Margerine. Porirapa they are not far wrong. Bee is pretty sure to be favorhe. This morning t here was some indication of Wishful coming into favor. Three that are sure to he hacked for the Publicans’ Handicap are Wrestler, Miss De A'ai, and Golden King.
