Plateau, a red-hot favorite lor the hack mile at Otaki, waited on the leaders, Morrath and Okopua. to the straight, and then came on to beat them comfortably. Plateau did not have much to beat, but his performance suggests much better things. <5» * J? The. Auckland Racing Club’s summer meeting will be Held on December 26 ’and ‘2S and January 2 and 3. Nominations for the Auckland Cup, Railway Handicap. Summer Cup, Racing Club Handicap, Grandstand Handicap. King’s Plate and Clilford Plate will close with flic secretary. Air W. S.

Spence, on Friday. Oct. It. at 5 p.m.. and at. the same time forfeits must bo declared for the Great Northern Guineas 1932, and the Welcome Stakes, 1932. * • t Gold Trail improved in the hands of 'Vo it re to win decisively in the open sprint) at Otaki after lying handy throughout. Aston made the pace to the straight from Trojan Melody, Gold Trail, and La Poupee. Le Poupee fell entering the straight 1 , leaving Aston and Trojan Alclody to be challenged by Gold Trail. Tlip latter drew out over the last half-furlong to beat Aston, who was just as rom tort ably second from Trojan Alelodv. Arvada was a moderate fourth. Gold Trail had no difficulty in beating her opponents. La Poupee got on to the heels of the horse in front when making her run. She was in tjie rear at the time and it is very doubtful if she would have won. * • * A big surprise eventuated in the. principal event on the second day at Otaki witli the win of Palm, who was only ahead of one horsq on the belting. The favorite, Fiji, made the pace with Pahu and Statuary, Spearful. Orby’s Choice. It u a ini i, Arikira, and Chopin, with Eastertime whipping in. Spearful did not List very long and at the half mile Fiji and Pahu had charge from Statuary and Ruanui. Once in line Palm strode away, and won comfortably from Statuary wjio just held off Ruanui. Fiji was fourth, followed by Orby’s Choice Chopin and Eastertime. Palm was alwavs going well, and be made the favorite do it all the way, as ( well as ' outpacing his opponents. Statuary ran well, and Ruanui was responsible for a solid race. Fiji pulled hard in the early running, and was beaten at the straight entrance. Some of. tpe others threatend danger, and it was an all-round reversal of ante-post anticipations. Gay Court broke a sequence ot minor plaeiugs by winning decisively in tjie back seven furlongs at Otaki, though for u long way if looked us v Fanner, who had raced brilliantly to the front, would stay there. B. .J. Morris called on all his talent m the straight’ to keep tlio failing Farmer in the lead. Imt L. G. Alorris got to Gay Court just as vigorous y, and in the end ho proved too solid Bee Acre came from the back to run a close third, with Sanguine lung fourth, and Dick Whittington next. Gay Court well deserved the applause that 1 greeted his success. He has been verv consistent, and equally unlucky. Farmer improved and Bee Acre ran a good race. None of the others looked likely, though Sanguine king * Chief Marionette at dtffcrcu stages were going well. * ' * Pillow Fight, quite recovered from the injury he recently leeched, sprinted up at Takuniiii last week. He finished on terms with Mu&huor at the end of half a mile 111 o 3 4-o see. He wax pulling double and could have done a lot bettei.- Ibis " ,l his first sprint since, being sent 0 Takanini, and those who saw it were impressed by his resolute manner of galloping. He i s uow coming on ra I»idly, ami bus every appearance ol beino a top-iiotclicr. * * * The Jcllicuc Handicap winner Tc Hoia is to make Ids next appearance in the Avondale Cup. E- Ludlow. who rode him at Kllerslio t» Agust, is coming from Ricearton to pilot Tc Hoia in his Avondale engagement (slates a northern coitcspondeut). Although ho w'M have SUb. more to carry next S«-turda} than ho won with at EUerslio, Tc Jloia has made marked impi u\Cnient in the interval that 8-1 is M °t going To lie a prohibitive impost, at his next start. The best is not always seen of him in his track gallops at Te Rapa, as lie is inclined to loaf unless he has the services of a strong boy and company to go with, which, will ensure him being kept up to it all the way. ju a race the half-brother to To Kara is a different horse and Ludlow .showed (at ■ Ellerslio that lie could handle him efficiently. Te Hoja’s connections are confident that he will be well in Cm bring line on Saturday. » * m The best gallop recorded at Ellerslio on Saturday was credited to Kiltowyn. wbo put up a brilliant effort over five luHongs. He rail the first two in 25 2-55.. and completed bis iask .in 1.3-2-5. He bad a- bit of pace on when lie jumped, off, bub finished up his -task in great style. »

The last time Thespis appeared in public at Hie Pakurangu meeting lie won the Tluntors’ Hurdle Race and later in the day accounted for the Ladies’ Bracelet. The latter event was run over one mite and «-quarter, and Thespis ivOn very easily, despite the fact that he carried the solid impost of 11-1. This improving galloper is engaged in the Kingsland High-weight Handicap at Avondale on Saturday, which is run over ten furlongs. However, the class is much stronger than Lhat which he had to contend with at EUerslio. but if .started lie is likely to be one of the hardest to beat.

A pleasing gallop at Ricearton last week was tlmt done by Cricket Bat. He was scut out to do strong work over seven furlongs, but lie completed the task in lmin, 28 1-5-ec. He shows no ill-effects from his recent ‘heel ailment- and will be in good order for his forthcoming engagements.

The fourth round of the ladies’ golf championships saw calculations further upset, there being two more surprise wins. Though Airs.

Aiiss Stevens had a lapse ol form on the greens, being most inconsistent at critical periods. She holed magnificent putts, but several times failed when a win appeared a certainty. Airs. Tenipler. nee Aiiss Bonnie Wright, should account lor Aiiss Lough mm in the semi-final tomorrow, though perhaps it is unwise to predict any result in .view ot the number of surprises already witnessed .
