For Australia.
Hawera’s largest stake-earner of last season, Stanchion, will leave for Australia next week in the company of four others of- Mr J. F. D. Correy’s horses, who will be taken over by the Blenheim trainer, i. 6. E. Jones. In winning the Great Northern and Campbell Hurdles, Stanchion proved himself a hurdler above the average. Certainly, he ran poorly at Trentham, but that .was not his true form. Since then he has gone on the right wgy, and in a gallop with Bay
Sand over five furlongs this morning hit out most pleasingly to beat his companion. Stanchion should do well in Australia, for the class of hurdlers over there at present is rather weak. J. Fryer was offered the Australian trip : with Mr Corry’s horses, but with a team of 15 horses in training at present the Hawera mentor was obliged to decline. With the majority of this large string likely to race during the spring, he has a busy; period ahead of him. °
