FRENCH ADOPT COLONIAL TOTE (Received Jan. 25, 7.35 p.m.) LONDON, Jan. 25.

The Morning Post says: _ A new pari-mutuel is being established on the French racecourse. The long delay between the end of a race "and the paying out of winnings has been a grave defect hitherto, and the Societe D’encouragement has now heckled to change to the vastly quicker Australian system as the result of a complete investigation in Australia. —A. and N.Z.C.A.

TOPICS OP THE TURF (By Cynic.) W. Goscomb was the early bird on Saturday morning, sending Jeanette (Gooch) and Flying Phantom (P. McIlroy) five furlongs on the course proper, which they ran in 1.4 4-5. Flying Phantom went well and showed his best form to date. Gazinta (C. Parkinson) ran three furlongs on the plough in 37 3-5, doing it well. Scotch Mixture (Butterworth)) and Kings Up (Rangi) ran the last' five furlongs of six on the plough in Princess Nata (E. McLeigh) ran three furlongs on the plough in 371-5 Superb King (Rangi) and Rapiata (BtitterWiOrth) ran five furlongs on the plough ;in 1.5 4-5, the former doing best at the finish. Automne (P. Mcllroy), Chaplin (Gooch) and Copper nob (Butterworth) went seven furlongs together, the last six taking 1.19 3-5. Jhe two former finishing together in -Tont ot Coppernob. . .... Cohesion (Leach) Manutai (Atkins) and Nightsong (C. Parkinson) fimslied in that order over six furlongs, run in 1.171-5, the first furlong 12 3-5, second 25 2-5, third 37.1-5. Welcome Sound (P.

Beccliworth was close up after being left. Carniola (Gooch), easily beat Mountain Slide (O. Parkinson) over five furlongs in 1.5 3-5. Pita (Atkins) Mangatoetoe (Nixon), and Garzon. (Leach) finished in that order over one mile in 45 1-5, the first two furlongs in 26, first three furlongs in 39 3-5, first four furlongs in 52. Red Autumn (P. Mcllroy) and Ngawati (Loach) ran four furlongs in 50 2-5, Both hit out well.

Waioeka Jfack (Nixon) and White Fang. (Atkins) ran five furlongs in 1.3.

Heavenly Dream’s filly pleased better than Autonus over three furlongs on the course proper in 37 1-5, from a flying start. Our Day(Stretton) and Lo King (Olive) jumped a few fences safely. , First Prince (Nixon), Miss W;illonyx (Leach), Springsure (P. Mcllroy), and the Lionskin colt were all given barrier practice. Prince Randall (Gooch), ran four furlongs in 52 1-5 on the plough. Belgian King, Pitoroa and Peterwah all did sound work. Rona Bingen and Makaim Belle also did useful work of a light character. . Kingi Pita, Autuniaton, Radiate, and' Radio did steady work on the plough.; ' ~ v .

Aucklanders are reported to have won well over Cawnpore’s victory in the Telegraph Handicap. Lady Desmond (Limond-Bronze) udio raced well at Trentham, was sold prior to running, her races for 650 guinea's—a .good deal tor the new owner.

Possibly Enthusiasm would have won the Wellington Cup even if she had not interfered with Te Monanui and Star Stranger, but the mix up is another had advertisement for the false rail, and Enthusiasm had to come round her field to get-in a winning position at the bottom of the straight. Te Mbnanui’s performance was a very fine one, and, as at Auckland, he will do better probably at Wanganui. Star Ranger ran like a good one and Martuila who was paying a very tall price, came from a. rear position to dispute the finish with the leaders. As usual she ran a good race. After the success of Limited and Enthusiasm, punters expected F. Tilly to have nis usual “trot” but the Fordell trainer “broke” in the Telegraph Handicap, Tamatete, who was a strong favorite, failing to jump out with his usual brilliancy. Ohui dre>p the outer in the Ruapehu Handicap. Ohui may be good, but Trentham and maiden hack company at Feiiding is different. It may be too soon to write Tamatete down as a has been, as he is getting in lighter every meeting. Twelve furlongs is just a bit too far for Grand Knight at present, but he ran a good race in the Wellington Cup, finishing close up fifth. When he has gone through a preparation ,there is no dout that he will win races up to twelve furlongs and further as he does not pull in his races. -

Licinius ran his best race so far as a three-year-old in.the Telegraph and may yet win a decent sprint race. His fall at Palmerston did him no harm.

W. H. Gaisford gave 900 guineas tor the Kilbroney-Fulsome colt and. may again have a good ‘ two-year-old to carry his colors. Fulsome is a sister to Humbug and a nice quality mare.

Peterwah, Una Dillon, Roma Bingen, Makauri Belle, Bingen King and Halmore compose the Gisborne horses entered for the Hawke’s Bay Trotting Club’s meeting, for which entries have filled really well. It will be, the second occasion on which the totalisator has been in use.

Gala Day, who won the Consolation Handicap at Trentham, is a real horse, or he would never have stood the racing that has been apportioned him this season. After racing hard at the A.R.C. meeting, he galloped well enough for anything.
