Tho fields are as follow: — 12.30

Bazainc has shown pace at times, while Cloudy Bay is promising. Kaola ran well at Opunake and should be all the better for the race. A first-class performer over the jumps, Tudor should run well in this class. The two-year-olds Chief Lady and Hunting Scene have an advantage in the weights and should make their presence felt. Most of the others are unknown quantities. The favourites should be CHIEF LADY, HUNTING SCENE and' KAOLA. 1.15 SANDON HIGHWEIGHT HANDICAP Of £75. One mile and a distance

Jayson does not appeal. Royal Record was in a place in each of his two starts at tho Manawatu holiday fixture, while Headland has been showing good form in hurdle races of late. Bacchus Marsh is a promising sort. Three in demand may be BOLD JIM, ROYAL RECORD and BACCHUS MARSH. 2.0

Bonnie Vale is a good solid hack. Timorous may he troubled by the distance, which should favour Hunting Queen. Darecourt is one of the most improved hacks in Commission and shouM hold safe the remaining trio, of whom All Supreme has given most promise. Solid support should come for DARECOURT and BONNIE VALE.

Cup. Sanguine King is smart over this distance and is rapidly approaching his best. Royal Routine usually races well when fresh, while the recent form of Navaho has been good. Midian would be fancied if started here. Should Eulanut be anywhere near fit he will set a merry pace, for he is a classy galloper. Wasteland and Full Throttle can both run- out a good seven, while Hunting Lodge and Land Tax are always liable to surprise. The best backed “ may be FULL THROTTLE, SANGUINE KING and RULANUT. 5.0 —

hard to catch and so will Full Throttle if he starts. Abbey Fcalc is a useful hack and Debut gallops very fast. Dialogist was second at his last start. Dollar Bill has shown promise at times. The elect of investors may be DEBUT, LIFEGUARD and FULL THROTTLE.
