Two of the Trentham contingent at the Blenheim meeting, Pedestal. and Peep, changed hands, the pair being disposed ot for lOgns each. The three-year-old gelding Paparua, who is still a maiden, is now in IV Johnson’s stable at New Plymouth. Ho is by Ruapapa from the speedy Inah. Antique is'reported f.o be executing consistent work in tho north. He has boon given plenty of fast work and should bo able to play a prominent role in tho near future.

Watson, has expired by tho effluxion of -time, and the Hunting Song gelding is duo to rejoin A. Trilford’s team at Washdyke this week. He was a brilliant performer over hurdles, his efforts at tho Grand National meeting entitling him to a very high place among the jumpers, and if he comes back to his best form, he will have to be reckoned with in important jumping races in tho winter. Jason’s Quest, who has suffered from soreness off and on for some time past, has been returned to her owner, Mr T. Masefield, from whom she had been held under lease by Mr E. G. McCullough, and she is to be retired to the sttjd.

You, of course, realiso that three horses, including Flying Prince, had already gone out to contest tho Mokoia Handicap on

Saturday prior to the day’s racing being postponed. In the meantime the Mokoia Handicap stake-money has been impounded until tho objection is determined. WOODYILLE JOCKEY CLUB.
