TRACK NOTES FROM TRENTHAM

(BY TELEGRAPH PRESS ASSOCIATION. WELLINGTON, Aug. 18. Although dull and threatening early this morning at Trenthm, later on the suit broke through, and the concluding part of the morning’s proceedings was disposed of in sunshine. The tracks are improving, and the times show that they are a great deal better than a month ago. The winter grass was in general u,se for fast work, but the sand was also available.

Star Ranger alone hit out freely in a gallop over six furlongs, which took 1.25 1-5, the last five in 1.11 2-5, Sir Pam was allotted a working gallop, of once round. Waetea and Axle sprinted half a mile in 56sec, the last three furlongs taking 40sec. Dick followed them in a steady round, sprinting from the three furlong past in 40see. Nine of Spades broke away at the six furlong jiost and, galloping, freely all the way, finished up his task in 1.22. the last five furlongs taking 1.10. Minotus and Indian Sage clashed over four furlongs in 56sec.

Peter Maxwell jumped' better than Pritice Rufus when the pair were schooled over the hurdles in the centre of the course. They were given good pace work afterwards, sprinting down the straight. Tanadees and Zero Hour ivere not asked to exert themselves when running half a mile in 1.1. Little River and General Carrington went out to school over the hurdles.
