NYALLO SCOTT'S EPSOMTASK

(Herald SiM'fi:il Service. »' At Alexandra Park tomorrow and (he following Saturday tlie /Auckland Trotting Club holds its spring' tixturc. Many visitors from tin* South an* inelmled among the acceptors including Nyallo Scott, Iho largest stake earner in the Dominion last season in either trotting or galloping. The thief rate is the mile and a half September Handicap of .VISOO. On the limit mark are Bel Hameit, Desert Lad, winner of this rare last year off the same mark at a long price, Dyrham Lea (who beat Snowllake ami company at Alexandra Park last May) and Te Tanganui.

Of this quartette the former may he the best backed on account of her recent third to Maudeen and Lady Ngaio at New Brighton and a similar placing behind Checkmate and Mountain Hall when conceding both 12 yds. in the Oueen Mary Handicap at Addington at the end of last month. Sprayman. on the 12 yard mark is in the Advance Handicap at Addington in August, van third to Hcthn.ll and Maori Home. * Bonnie Jack, Diamond Trust and Captain Gaillnrd. in the first flight among a strong lot of four-year-olds last

season, will start off the 24 yard mark and. of the trio, the last named may find most favour. Black Machine and Single Direct are handicapped on 20 yds. The former won four races’ last season, including the Sir Thomas Wilford Memorial at Wellington in

Juno off scratch in a 2-18 (lass, so that now, in a 2 seconds slower class, he has been penalised 12 yds. On that occasion Diamond Trust, from the same mark, was second. Last season Single Direct was classed as a highclass four-year-old winning thrice gaining four seconds and was once unplaced in only eight starts. His wins included the Alexandra Park Handicap oyer Nyallo Scott, Heliopolis and company, the A.T.C. Dominion Handicap and the Alexandra Handicap at Auckland. Elation, on 48 yds., was started 28 times last season, but his form in the autumn was disappointing.* Nyallo Scott, off the 84 yards mark, has been set a hard task, but if *he goes off correctly he should give a taste of his class on the form he showed at Addington last month when, in the August pacing Free-For-All he beat Emulous and party, all off the same mark. The Takanini Handicap, run over a quarter of a mile less than the September Handicap, will see practically the same horses harnessed up again with, in addition, Sir Victor, (not fancied) Hill Crest (nowhere in live starts last season) and the well-performed Double Peter who has not won a race since the Metropolitan meeting just over 12 months ago, when he annexed the Winter Handicap. Now he is on the same mark at Nyallo Scott. Many young horses are included in the fields. The goipg is expected to be excellent as this last week fine weather has been experienced up north.
