Auapuni stables supply 2] nominations for the opening day at Trent ham, while five*, other horses figure in the later days. All interesting entry for the Wellington. meeting is the Tea l rav filly La Poupee, who is now trained at Woodvill.e. As a t.wo year old I*a Poupee won £207 0 in stake money. Gaswyn. who has been mixing Ins racing of late, will return to the ’chasing branch at Wellington, where the Gasbag gelding figures in the Matai Hack Steeplechase on the open ing da y. Although she has yet: to win a maiden race, Bonnie Vale has been entered among the hack sprinters on the opening day at I re.nth.ain. but will revert to the 1 rial Plate company on the second day. | Tarquinius, who has not recovered from tlu* effects of the mishap he met with on the track a few weeks back, will not be raced at Ashburton He iV to bo given a spell to give him a chance to get right again. j J. H. Prosser has recommissioned Great. Star and (.Band Review, both looking in robust order after a three months’ spell. 1 he two 'ear old gelding Scarlet Robe, by Robespierre from Bonsign, has also been taken up again by Prosser (says the Press). | C. Elliott, who won the recent One Thousand Guineas on Kandy', was also successful on Four Course in that race last year, and won on Plack in 1924. Another of his good wins last year was on Brulette u the Oaks. ! Sporting Chance, who is now in G. tV. New’s hands, will make a reappearance under silk at Wellington next month. The Lackharn gelding lias been accorded a nomination for the. Wobutn Hack Handicap on the first day. “The owner who bets with the bookmaker and then growls at the small Stakes being given by a club, i.s worse, than a fool,’’ said Mr Stanford (president of the Mraton Racing- Club), “because stakes in New Zealand are based on total Gator figures. ” j Nauru was first favourite fur the ■ Victoria (band National Hurdle--1 when the last mail left Melbourne, Cockcrow, last year’s winner, wa> third selection, while Captain’s C.iH ' was not mentioned in the betting. Other New Zealanders in Lucess Landmark and Make Up were or tlie fifth, line.

Gordon Richards, who headed last season’s list of winning jockeys in England, wa going badly up to the beginning of May. IJe had done more riding than any other jockey up to that time, but of his 143 mounts only j 3 had won, and with F. Rickaby he shared seventh place. W. Nevett and S. Wragg shared first place with 19 wins, but the former, with 21.83, was first in winning percentages. The Ne\v Zealand bred mare Stately' (Paladin —Limelight), whe had not raced for some months, made a reappearance in the first division of the Exeter Handicap st Randwu k a fortnight ago. She ’3 now trained by G. Shell for Mr E. F. O'Connor, but did not look ready and failed to show up. Her latest- win was when she beat Nut Clip in last year’s Exeter Handi- : cap. 1 The non-inclusion of Ammon Ra in the entries for any of the spring handicaps was a surprise, says the Sydney Referee. Although his spring and autumn form of this season did not favour iii; S being- a candidate for the Melbourne Cup, it was thought liis owner and trainer would have been curious as to what the different handicappers thought of him from a I mile to a mile and live furlongs, j However. Jamieson was not keen on putting' him in the handicaps, and l and no doubt his ideas on the sub | ject influenced Mr Sheath. If any ' serious idea of taking him to America was entertained, it would have been a mistake not to have entered him for tlie Caulfield and. Melbourne Cups. 111 America some ' of tlie writers are already placing

him nearly in the class of Phar Lap who received 10.11 in the Caulfield Cup and a pound less in the Melbourne Cup. Ammon Ra was unlikely to have received much, if any, more than q.o in either, and that would have given Americans a fair idea of how he was rated in Australia by comparison with Phar Lap. If ho were now to be sent over for the Agua Calientc Handicap the chances arc ho would get very little less than the 9.3 which made that race so easy for Phar Lap. However, the odds are greatly against Ammon Ra going to America.
