NEWS AND NOTES. S. Trilford, who has been training horses in South Canterbury for many years, first at Washdvke and latterly at >)rari, has accepted an engagement as private trainer to the North Canterbury sportsman, Mr Gordon Fulton, and he will take up his new position about the end of January. Trilford has been very successful with all classes of horses, and has done exceptionally well with jumpers, lie lias turned out many important winners over hurdles and “steeplechase country, Hylans and Crib being two horses who did well for his stable last winter H. Young was riding at the South Canterbury Jockey Club’s meeting on Thursday, but he was prevented, on account of ill-health, from fulfilling any engagements y ester day. The totalisator investments at tho South Canterbury meeting yesterday, £24,527, and the total for this week’s meeting. £47,237 10s, were a record for the cluo, while the sum handled on the concluding event yesterday, £4501, was also a course record. The previous best total for a meeting was £37,437 last autumn. The Riccarton trainers who contemplate taking teams to Ellerslie tor the summer meeting of the Auckland Racing Club have made a start to work their horses right-handed, in preparation for the reverse way oi : going at the northern fixture. From present indications it looks as if there would be a strong contingent ot liorses from this quarter racing at Ellerslie. Sir George Clifford's team may include Winter Mind, Nightraider, R-oyal Stag, Mis« JMimic, Counterstroke and. Winning Hit; Mr G. I). Greenwood may have Gloaming, Vespucci, Adopted, Rossini and possibly a two-year-old. ; while Air. ti. VV. Brown’s colours may be carried by Arrowsmitb, Counter Attack and Going Up. Fabisco is getting through useful tasks. He bears an improved appearance, and lie may pay his way during the approaching holiday season. Moorabbe is moving along nicely in her work. She seems to have quietened down, but it remains to bo seen how she will shape in this respect when her tasks become more strenuous. . The Dunedin sportsman, Mr A. Murdoch, was in Christchurch this weekThe yearling by Boniform, from Margarethe, purchased on his behalf at the sales in Carnival Week,, has been gelded, and it is probable that arrangements will be made to have him trained at Riccarton. A London message states that Bullock. while riding Kerasos, at Manchester. had a heavy fall. He was badly shaken and sustained injuries to his face.
