WELLINGTON, This Day

The weather was ideal for training operations at '['rent ham yesterday, but not many visitors ha\e yet arrived and there was nothing particularly enlightening in the work done. The plough and trial grass were both available, but all the fast galloping was done on the grass.

STIPULATIONS TOO RIGID. (Received KO’.U a.in.) NEW YORK, October Id, Negotiations are believed lu have fallen through for the proposed Wincoka Eijiiipoiae race. The New Atork “Sun” jniblished a .statement on .Monday that Winooka’s backers definitely balked al Hie stipulation of Equipoise's owner that, the distance should be at least one mile, providing Winooka proved his class against other eastern horses first.

As a result Ecpiipoise has been ordered to be taken out of training and is to go Into retirement, while Winooka, if he wins at Laurel on Friday, is to bo offered a test against high-class sprinters at the United Hunts meeting at Belmont Park early in November, for a prize of 5000 dollars and a trophy.

A London cable states that Mrs H. Collins, a Avoll-knowu owner, is willing to match Strathcarron against Winooka ever live furlongs for £IOOO aside, with a side bet of £SOO, provided the match is run at Hurst Park. “Sporting Life’’ is of opinion that ether owners will bo glad to provide matches with Winooka in England next season. Strathcarron is a four-year-old grey gelding by Tetrartoma from Pathearroji, ami as a two-year-old, in his halfdozen starts, ran second to Grand Style in the British Dominion Two-year-old Plate, live furlongs, at Sundown Park, the time being .1.3 1-5, while he was fourth in the Manchester Autumn Dreaders’ Foal Plate, of similar dis tanee, at Manchester. Last season ho had nine starts, winning the Pour Elms Maiden Plate, an event for three-year-olds, rim over live furlongs, at Ling/ield, l the time being 1.5 2-5. lie was thought to be such a moral that the starling price was 13 to S on. Strathcarron. missed in his next effort, and in the Ashstead Selling Plate, six furlongs, at Epsom, he was beaten by two lengths by Suspicion in 1.12 4-5. He won the lx worth Throe-year-old Selling Plate, live furlongs, at Newmarket, with 9.0, in 1.1 2-5. He failed in his next attempt, and then ran fourth in the Stewards’ Handicap, six furlongs, at Nottingham. He won the Leicestershire Handicap, six furlongs, at. Leicester, with 8.2, in .1.14 3-5, and a couple of ; months later ran third in a similarlynamed race, one mile, on the same course. This season, up to the end of August, he had had eight races. He ran. third in the Prince of Wales’ .Slakes, seven furlongs, at Epsom, second in the Windsor Castle Stakes, live furlongs, at Ascot, second in the Waterbeach Handicap, six furlongs, at Newmarket, and won the Sussex Stakes, six furlongs, at Brighton, and the Princess Stakes, five furlongs, at Kempt on Park

Mr Buck, secretary of the United Hunts, telegraphed to Mr E. Naylor, manager of Winooka, as follows: — “Mr Whitney must have a definite answer on October 10 regarding a race wiih Equipoise at Belmont Park oh. November 7, tiro distance to be one. mile and the weight B.S.’’ "Mr Naylor replied: “Thank you for your kind c poiting interest. I must decline a match under such obviously unequal conditions. Winooka has travelled 1-1,000 miles and suffered all climatic changes, the change from turf to dirt tracks and the necessity for running in an opposite direction on American tracks. He will defeat hisopponents on Friday and will then claim the American sprint champion ship. As a final concession, I agree to 0.0 each. However the race must defin it olv not extend beyond seven furlongs, Let the sporting World judge between us.” Winooka's race on Friday is attracting considerable interest. His likely opponents are Jamestown, -Character, and Gold Step, with Jamestown the probable favourite. '
