Timo 1.28 RACING NOTES. R. Alexander lias ttie i wo.year.old Philanderer bowling along in strong work a 1 present. Th ( . sou of Gay Lad amj Love.a-Duck showed promise as a stayer -when raced this season, and his trainer has hopes that he will develop into a good Derby candidate. He claims an engagement in the Australian Jockey Club’s Derby, but his connections will want to know a little more about his prospects before deciding on a tri]) to Sydney. Tn the (meantime, however. Jie fstr going on well in his preparation. The yearlings in Cutts Brothers’ stable have all been broken in, and some ( f them are already well advanced in their education, being regular attendants at the tracks. They include one or two youngsters who show considerable promise. G. .Murray Aynsh/v has his team doing useful pare work, and though Hiev will not be rc'i'.iired to do much of a serious nature for some time yet, they are all in good health, and are g!u»liially gelling into condition for the fast work that will be required !-!ter. ’They include 'i'iff. Footfall, .''•'l arm i si, Sparklight. Goldstep and a couple of yearlings. Bonomel lias been on the easy list since his return from the Dunedin meeting, whore he met with some injuries when lie fell, but IL Imnglcy hopes 1o have him in work again soon.
