JUVENILE PARADE AT ELLERSLIE.

SOME INTERESTING SPRINTING.

Under beautiful weather conditions there was a fair attendance of the sporting public at Elbrslie on Saturday afternoon last, to witness the two-year.old trials arranged by the Auckland Racing Club. No less thin 25 juveniles were paraded, and these we:" sprinted in four different lots frorr the three-furlong post on the course proper m the winning poet. Mr. C. O'Connor acted as starter, the barrier being used, end i' was iiloasin? to noto that the maj.-rity < ! . the thoroughbreds proved apt pupils, lli<r„.' in some cases the fractious element was visible. The different sprints proved de cidedly interesting, and it is worth remark int( that the General Latour represent»•>'—. Prince Chnrloroi, who has had .he IT'; 1 i<-<n of being able to move ■■ fied his admirers by winning : rather fashion. Of the -.)-.- winners, both Phyllona and Cainowindrx created favourable impressions, while thn Pistol colt Glen Connie won his heat in game fashion. Of the f iace-getters, No Mistake, Arati. and Dixie Lard, each displayed pare, and this trio can all be looked fir to make improvement. Mr. J. K.

At tL» start the last-mentioned filly turned round the reverse way and took no part in tho Pirint. Phyllona moved off speedily from rinceßS Charming and Finkop, and was never really troubled, finishing up in front from the other pair mentioned. Prir.ce.-j Charming had a distinct lead from Finkop for most part, but nearing tho post Finkop made a bold effort, and opinions differ as to which of tho pair actually finished second. Behind them finished Jewoller, Gold Piano, and Pentagram in order. Time. 89 4-ss. Other watches made Phyllona run 395. Jaecond Heat. Mr. G.
