Ho has been engaged to ride Golden Wings and other members of 11. E. Russell’s team, and will also ride King March. Ellis had made up his mind to stay in New Zealand, as he was certain of many good ride 9 in both islands, but as liis brother, A. E. Ellis, was unable to accept the riding of Golden Wings in Australia, owing to being retained for Silver Ring, a tempting offer was made to him to go over.
A. E. Ellis lias definitely arranged to ride Custodian and Shatter in their races, and R. Reed will have the mounts on Nightly and The Masquerader. This latter arrangement was made on AI. McCarfcen advising that he would be fully engaged for G. Price’s stable. The Ellis brothers will leave for Sydney on August 23.
