Nominations for the Ashhurst meeting close on Tuesday, November 2, at 9 p.m. The telegraph office closes at 8 o’clock.

First day’s form should be good to follow at Gisborne to-day.

Despite the fact that the favourites got into the money on the opening day of the Poverty Bay T.C. meeting on five occasions, the financial result could hardly be called satisfying. The dividends, like the fields, wore very small.

The warning that Stratton received for his mishandling of Starshell on the second day of the W.R.C. meeting apparently didn’t have the desired effect, for his tiding of the winner of the Flying Handicap, Polar, at Gisborne on Thursday, earned him one month’s holiday from the saddle. It scents, however, to bo a question of strength rather than of carelessness.

The veteran steeplechaser Oakloigh made a reappearance in the Waikato Hunt Cup, and was racing in fourth position for about a mile when he foil at the sodwall. This was the same fence that proved the undoing of Banjuke and several others.

Mr. E. Ridiford appears to have a pair of early winners in Jemidar and Buoyant. Fool’s Paradise is not to run again until the Stewards’ Handicap, in which ’he will be ridden by R. J. Mackie, who scored on him at Trentham.

Riding engagements announced for the Thames meeting to-day'are: W. H. Jones, Boomorday, Nancy Lee, Star Comet, Ringa Manga and Baby Bun; N. Rowe, Sea Comet and. probably Ulva’s Isle; H. Dulieu, Hcisler and King Emerald; E. Stanway, Royal Form and Greekson; W. Rowe, Explorer; R. Nixon, Maniahera; A. Driscoll, Sleepy Sol and Golden Krist; W. Taylor, Cynelli and Royal Present: J. Cammick, Nassock, Gold Fern, Holymond, .Chairman, Bright Comet and Marble Mount

Among the acceptors for the Trial Plate at Thames to-day is Valkon who finished second to Arch Arrow in the Putaruru Stakes at Matamata last March. Many who witnessed Valken’s game finishing effort on that occasion formed the opinion that he would be useful as a throe-year-old this season. Tho son oaValkyrian has been added to the list since racing last

The race he had at Whangaroi, where he ran second in the cup, should have been beneficial to Spooney, who is likely to strip near his best at Thames to-day, says

“Archer.” Spooney is an honest customer and will probably start favourite in the Goldfields Cup, wherein the class is similar- to that in which he has shown his best form.

R. Lewis, who steered Manfred to victory in the Caulfield Cup, is credited with saying:—“Manfred is the most difficult horse to manage I have ever ridden. Since first riding him I have received hundreds of letters telling mo what tactics I should adopt. I replied to many of them, saying: ‘You can have the bridle, saddle, and horse: come and see what you can do.”

Though Pilliewinkie is out of commission at the present important stage of the racing season, it is pleasing to learn that the New Zealand gelding has not broken down. The reason assigned for Pillicldnkic’s withdrawal from all spring engagements Is a mishap that bofel him while contesting the Herbert Power Stakes at Caulfield on the 13th Inst., during which race ho struck himself. With an eye to the future it was deemed advisable not to further tax Pilliekinkie at this stage.
