Of 200 sovs.; limit 3.45; one mile and a-lialf. (For unhoppled trotters only.)

Some good square-gaiters are engaged here, and the race is full of possibilities. Caballero is the most solid of the limit lot, but Brian Bingen is close to the three-year-okl and may prove a nuisance.

A. classy lot will contest the chief event, and of the limit lot Little Guy on recent form will appeal strongly. He will be bracketed with Hostess, making a good combination. Logan’s Pride will also show up well, while Gang Awn is a possibility. Ail Red will have to improve a lot on Wanganui form to get in the picture. Royal Silk and Tnnmtakuru are fine pacers worth keeping in mind. ICnawah lias yet to prove she cun stay, but Explosion and Warplane are sure to add interest to a. fine contest.

Some merrv milors will take part in this dash. Tiny Rose, off the front, has only to repeat Wanganui form to be dangerous, wnile the journey will suit Nathaniel. Hal more is a speedy customer, while, if right, Ngahuia will

lend the opposition n merry dance. A great beginner is Cora- Tac-ks, who also has a later engagement. Brook Pointer won so well at Hamilton that lie is sure to be troublesome, while Trustworthy and Queen Elizabeth are a. smart pair. Backers may show a,, preference- fori Brook Pointer, Halmore and Cora' Tacks.

PRESIDENT’S HANDICAP (Harness) Of 220 sovs.; limit 4.50; two miles.

Two miters of improving calibre will have their opportunity in, this heat. Richmond 1 Lass looks the best of the front liners, white on Wanganui form Kevinbrae- should account for her.
