SPRING SEASON OPENING
' <$ MARTON LEADS OFF FIELDS FOR TO-MORROW’S RACES FORM OK THE! CANDIDATES REVIEW I3Y “LIMITED’.’ The new season’s -spring racing commences at Marton to-morrow. Acceptances are good all round and the sue- j cess ’of the fixture is practically assured. The fact that the first two-year-old race of the season will be held and that several New Zealand Cup candidates are listed to run lends additional -interest to the meeting. Little is known of the condition of the horses that have not raced during the winter and the form disclosed will be valuable in view of meetings coming on. - JUVENILE PLATE. Oif £55. Four furlongs. _____ |
X tin L>a>l tX u Several well bred two-year-olds are to compete in the Juvenile Handicap and quite a number are being discussed. Scholar, by Diacquenod—Filette. is a half-brother to speedy ones in Headmistress and Head Lady. Life Guard is by Chief Rluler from Naselle. Gay Blonde is a full sister to> Gay Sheila and lias l been responsible for smart track work at Takanini. Whenuakura, by Chief Ruler—Silver Link, will be Hawera’s hope. Body line, by Lord Quex —Nukmrakau, is well spoken of from Awapuni, and a well bred one is Tantara, by Hunting Song from Isabel. Much will depend on the forwardness , of the youngsters and Whenuakura, B'odyline and Gay Blonde may be selected. I MAIDEN RACE. j ] Of £-30. Six furlongs. j
JL.llcX.llL UO> U < A big field, with little known of many of the competitors, is listed for the Maiden Plate, into which the luck of the run may largely enter. Probably Plieon, Airctidißogioi.il and Widden will be fancied with Icier, the ex-Hawcra mare, likely to runs well. H ACK HIUEiDLiES. Of £7O. One mile and a half.
The* Hack Hurdles has a small field and Henry of Navarre looks sure to be a hot. favourite, with Waitannaha, who is in great order, and Ramuna, who is consistent, backed in that order.
TUTAENUI HACK HANDICAP. Of £fiO. Six furlongs.
Another big field with any amount lof room for a, surprise figures in the. Tutaenui Hack. A feature of this race will be the form shown by the thfee-year-olds, who will bo having their first try out. Quite a number are engaged. Two of them, Porotiti and Quietly, are engaged next week in the Wanganui Guineas and will be eagerly scanned. IPArtagnan, Catalogue, Cherry King and Etiquette were smart two-year-olds. The three-year-olds look like dominating the betting and Porotiti, Quietly and Etiquette may be preferred. MAiKTON HANDICAP. Of £IOO. Oho mile and a quarter.
Quite a. select field has accepted for the Marton Handicap and several promise to be veil supported. Curie won handsomely at Trentham in July. S-peedmint and Count Palatine have latest winning form. Joie de Yal has been running more genuinely latelv and is ai likely outsider. Little Doubt is the Hawera horse, but is unreliable.
while Oh op in may not be quite ready. 1 Curie and Speedmint may divide favouritism, with Count Palatine next fancied. SPRING HACK HANDICAP. Of £7O. Otoe mile' and 137 yards.
Ythan is the form horse in the Spring Hack field, while Cape Fair, Mercian Prince and Pa-ngo will have partisans. Tote figures will likely indicate for Ythanj P'ango and .C'ape Fair. RAILWAY HAtNjDIC'AP. Of £BU. Six furlongs.
Tiie Railway Handicap should prove a splendid contest. Royal Bengal has been successful .since leaving New Plymouth and should be in tip-top order. Foreign Queen had to go to R.iecarton to be dethroned, but is nicely treated here. Diatoinous was a classic winner last year and would only have to be forward in condition to be the pick. Cadi and has not raced for some time. Big tilings were expected of lmpasto last season and ho is reported as work-
iup; well up north. I n a. good betting race Foreign Queen, Diatomons and Royal Bengal may be fancied. FARFAViEIDL HACK HANDICAP. Of £6O. Five furlongs.
I The much boomed Tavern Knight • will have his opportunity in the Fare- , well Hack and is likely 'to see a short
prior. Stadium will bo well supported and also Elbeum if reserved. J. Brown left Hawera by train this morning for Marten with the two->voar-old Whenuakura and ,Little Doubt. March Alone was,also a passenger by the same train. K. Voitre has sufficiently recovered to resume race riding and will be on Whemiakura. J. Fyrer’s apprentice, G. Duncan, whose ' suspension is up, will pilot March Alone and High Society.
