ASHHURST RACING CLUB.

ANNUAL MEETING- TO-MOREOW. In previous years the Ashhurst Racing Club have hold their annual fixture before Ch’-’‘- f ui°s hoiL-lay moelinsrs, falling In with the Le\ in— Peildlng—Woulville eLyuil,-' but when Foxton made a change ’in their dates, the Ashhurat Club put forward a claim

for Anniversary Day with a view of collecting some of the holiday atteu-r dairce. Foxton have benefitted considerably by the alteration and there ia every reason to believe that the change will effect an improvement in the northern club’s meeting also, as the circumstances differ a good deal from last year’s Anniversary meeting at Foxton and make it appear that the Wellington Club will suffer a small loss by the absence from their fixture of some of the Palmerston-northern Wairarapa racegoers who will. make Ashhurst their holiday outing, because of its handiness. The better class animal will, of course, prove a strong attraction at Trentham, hut Ashhurst has good fields and will provide interesting racing. . The programme is as follows, the first event being timed to start at 11.45 a.m.;— HACK HURDLES, of 150 sovs,; 1£ miles. Atareria .10 G L. Arlington 9 0 Locarno 30 4 Cold Air 9 (f Hymestrason 9 7 Eoburant '*9 & Othon 9 3 Mandate 9 0 In the opening event an improver in ROBURANT. might prove dangerous. If LOCARNO has taken kindly to jumping, he looks most capable of beating LIN ARLINGTON. MAIDEN STAKES, of 130- eovg. r weight, 8.7. Five furlongs.

Mixture, Guide Light Tunbridge There is a. good deni of unknown quality in the Maiden Stakes and a. surprise is likely. On performances, the best credentials are held by MARCIA, BJONE and INFLAME.

'The Puhangimi Handicap boars a, fairly' open aspect wit!) Miss Pat now well up in the weights. The most likely trio to break her rim of wins are MOUTOA TREASURY, CALLANMORE and THE RAIDER. .SIBERIA HACK, of 150 so vs.; 0 furlongs. Shag.

ASHHURST CUP, of 330 sovs.; 1£ miles. Roy.'' Game 8 5 Henna 7 B Anolo 8 2 Maui 7 9 Kilmiss 713 Kalos 7 9 L. Lhnoml . 7 12 Imp. Spark 7 1 Keddar 712 Turin k 7 1 Nucleus 7 II

If Foxton is any guide Royal Game, Henna, Maui, Kalos, and Twink, can ail be ticked off" as possibilities. Anolo’s .Stratford performances are good enough to suggest liim as likely, while if tlie going is at all heavy, Kilmiss will be favoured. Lady Limond will win shortly, while Keddar and Nucleus are distinct possibilities, more particularly the latter who should be - ready by now to go this distance. Of the Foxtm form Maui is certainly best with Kalos next. It is not going to be easy for- the punter, but good performances can be expected from Maui Anolo Nucleus. KOMAKO HACK, of 150 so vs,; 7 furlongs. Gold Cure 9 0 Aurora Chopin 7ld Borealis 7 4 Gold Bag 7 1J Balloon 7 1 First Ruler 7 0 Mothpianc 7 0 Volplane 7 D M. Mixture 7 O Keen 7 8 Basalorna 7 0.

In me concluding event, speculators Wih probably look toi- a recovery in BALLOON, VEXATIOUS or KING b>ULX.
