TURF GOSSIP
Week-end Racing
This week’s racing is confined to three meetings, all of which will be held next Saturday. They are at Hastings, Tauranga and Greymouth.
A Disappointment
Mr Keith Watson disposed of Lady Earon following her further failures at the Wanganui meeting.
A Good Showing,
On Wanganui running, there should soon be a race for Rhodesian in a minor open sprint. He led to the distance and finished a close fourth. Yearlings Named. Mr G. Murray Aynsley has named three of his yearlings, as follows; Muffler (Myosotis-Muff). Rue (Myoso-tis-Reproachful), and Stylosa (Myoso-tis-Grris). Change of Lease. The Opaki trainer, B. Burgess, evidently tired of his lease of Telamon, as the three-year-old Iliad gelding has now been taken over by Mr B. MeKnight, of Upper Hutt. For Australia? Padishah has been accorded a nomination for the Australian Hurdles, of £ISOO, 2i miles, and the Australian Steeples, of £ISOO, 3i miles, to be run at Caulfield on August 5 and 12 respectively. This meeting clashes with the C.J.C. Grand National meeting at Riccarton. Mr J. Hennah has also entered his Fondle filly Hugme for the A.J.C. Gimcrack Stakes.
