SPORTING.

NOTES AND COMMENTS. The totalisator investments at Randwick on Easter Monday (Sydney Cup day) amounted to £112,935. The sum of £28,639 was invested on the Cup. It is said that George Price, who is at present in Australia, contemplates taking up his residence there in the near future. Good Sport, which won the Nursery Handicap on the opening day of the Hawke's Bay meeting, is a half-bro-ther by the imported Polydamon to Chortle. Mountain Lion and Warpath were offered for sale by auction at Hastings on Thursday last, but were passed in at 3Qogns. Mr A. Asprey, who has been training, at Ellerslie for some years past, has decided to return to Australia, and leaves for the other side in about Vagabond has been nominated for both Great Northerns. The Victorians plumped very strongly for Eurythmic to beat Beauford in the Autumn Stakes,' and the sum lost to the bookmakers in backing the chestnut, it is computed, ran to big figures. Mr R. Mason will be leaving for Sydney at an early date, but his horses will not be taken across until some time later.
