SYDNEY YEARLING SALEF.
As was only to bo expected, the holding up of racing in New South Wales as » result of tho epidemic had a very serious effect on the yearling sale 3 in Now South Wales. Mr. T. H. Lowry, of Hawke's Bay. is not. however, apparently to be included amongst the unlucky ones, for the FinlandWar Scare colt he sent across to bo offered brought llOOgns., which was, according to the details of tho sale cabled, the top pi ice realised. The colt sold on account of Mr. Lowry claims full brothership to Estland (winner of the New Zealand and Great Northern Derbies). Accepting the account of the sale cabled, only two other youngsters submitted realised a sum running to four figures. One was a colt by Linacre from the Eiridspord mare Po»3; and the other, a colt by Syce from Wisebird; the sum realised in the last two cases being lOOOgns. The following is a list of the highest prices paid for yearlings in Australia and New Zealand:—
Gn* Orcns, by Poaitano—Jacinth (bred in New South Wales) 8050 Lord Randolph, by Ncwminster— Primrose (bred in Victoria) .. 2300 Havoc by Nordenfeldt-Frailty (bred in Auckland, New Zealand) . . 2200 Calsverite, by Grafton—Gold Dust (bred in New South Wales) .. 2100 Duke James, by Maltster—Lady Grafton (bred in New South Wales). . 2100 Mousquetaire, by Nordenfeldt—Frailty (bred in Auckland, N.Z.) . . .. 2025 Segenhoe, by Maribyrnong— Fawn (bred in New South Wales) .. .. 2000 Warwick, by Maribyrnong—The Fawa (bred in New South Wales) . . 2000 Lady Joan, by Sir Foote— Weenie (bred in New South Wales) 2000
UNDER THE SEARCHLIGHT. In the list given above of high-priced yearlings, disappointment is writ large. Orcuß, who heads tie list, was bought by Mr. H. R. Denisoc, chiefly on the fact that he claimed full relationship to poseidon, who put up the great record of winning the A.JO. and V.R.C. Derbies and the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups at three years old. Orcus proved a perfect failure, and he never succeeded in winning a single race. Lord Randolph was little better. Havoc ranges as an Australian Cup r. inner, and though he did not last long he was voted a high-class racehorse. Calaverite never saw the startingpost, a similar record being down against the name of Mousquetaire. Segenhoe was a good two-year-old, but he was a great disappointment at three years old; and his brother, Warwick, also performed badly. Lady Joan managed to win one small race, and her career was full of disappointment. Such is the short history attaching to the high-priced yearlings in these lands.
BRILLIANT SASANOF. In winning the Thompson, Handicap at Trentham on Thursday last under the steadier of 9st 91b Sasanof gave further proof of his right to be included amongst the most noteworthy geldings that have carried silk in these lands. It was no small task that confronted Sasanof in the Trentham race, for the field was above the average. Sasanof fulfilled all demands in a manner that left no doubt as to his retaining that fine dash of brilliancy that enabled bim to dispose of Gloaming; in the decision of the Stead Memorial Cup at Riccarton last November. Sasanof is down for an engagement to-day in the Trentham Gold Cup, and matters look bright for him to earn further distinction, for he is tho proved stayer of the field engaged.
Up to date Sasanof has contested 41 races, and his record stands as follows;
A PRIZE OF THE SALE-RING. Mr. W. G. Stead has good reason to look back with pleasure to the spring day in 1914, when! Sasanof fell to his bid of 400 guineas, for in the interval the bey son of Martian has captured stakes to the value of £15,865. When Sasanof won the Melbourne Cud of 1916 he was characterised as a freak, which appellation was held to be deserved by reason of his eitrcmely mean appearance. Tho Sasanof of 1916 and the Sasannf of the present day are, however, quite two different animals in appearance, and the once-mean-looking little bay has made up into quite a good-looking horse. Not a few keen, judges considered that Mr. Stead paid full value (or Sajano! wht n ho bought the son of Martian as a yearling, but the gelding early demonstrated thai he was a prize of the sale-ring.
AFTERGLOW V. STAR LADY. When! Afterglow suffered defeat at the hands of Star Lady in the decision of the Great Northern Oaks it seemed as though tho Oante'bury-owned filly was inferior to her Northern rival, and when the pair set out to fight their battle o'er again in the New Zealand St. Leger at Trentham on, Wednesday last the Oaks victress was made favourite. However, the honours were destined to go to Afterglow, who disposed of her rival in a mam.er serving to support the view that she should not have been defeated in the fillies' rare at Ellerslie. 'Die fact that Afterglow compassed the mile and threequarters attached to the Now Zealand St. Lcger in 5m gives her first place both in New Zealand and Australia in races of a simitar character, and that ensures for the bay daughter of Demosthenes and Sunglow a wide advertisement.
It is when an incident such as that which hefel the brilliant 01o»min« at the start of the North Island Challenge Stakes at Trentha.ni on Thursday last that the risks to be taken under the barrier system of starting 9 brought out in a pointed manner, and which could not occur under the old-timo Ma." despatch. Tho account of the accident •rhich threw Gloaming down and thus put him out of the race was, it is said, caused by his finding his feet sn smartly that ho got caught in tho tapes, and was thus thrown Hown That horses remember these severe experiences at tho barrier has been manly tin** exemplified, and it will be no groat surprise should Gloaming, cultivate . distaste for the tapes. It is to bo hoped that the unfortunate mishap at Trentham will not have a permanent effect on Gloaming for that he comes within the category of the great ii an. opinion. widely entertained.
LEAVES FROM MY NOTEBOOK.
The uncertainty that overhangs racing wan most strikingly exemplified lat Avondalc on Wednesday last, when Tirau's prospects were completely extinguished at the initial obstacle in the Mount Eden Steeplechase. Hore was a horse who on the opening day of the meeting raced over his fences in such dashing style, that. as the saying goes, he did not place a too wrongly; and jet the first fence on the second day beat him. 1 am not quite certain that it is fair to Tirau to put the matter that way, for if the equine in question were gifted with Bpeoch, he would probably be able to tell that he was not altogether to blame for the unfortunate contretemps which brought him down. Tirau was bleeding from the nose when he cams back to the enclosure, but his injury was not regarded in a serious light.
There was a time when members of the press attending a race meeting on duty had to work under very uncomfortable conditions, but this has long since been remedied by thoso responsible for bringing the appointments on the course up-to-date. The oommuiee of the Avondale Jockey Club docided some lime tune back to allot a new room to ttie pressmen on their course, and the same was available lor use at, the recent autumn nieeuni', and, with every detail studied, the departure was much appreciated. 'Ihe providing of a dark room, where Uie photographers can attend to their delicate worn, is aiso an installation at, Avondale well worthy of reference, and shows very cleariy that the A.J.C. do not treat up-to-date methods as a mere tigure of speech.
Mr. R. S. Sievier, to whom is not inappropriately applied the title of " the irropresßible," is evidently once again in favour with Dame Fortune, for a recent London cablegram to hand states that he has furnished the winner of the Lincolnshire Handicap and City and Suburban Handicap with a horse named Royal bucks. Mr. Sievier has the record of having paid the highest price recorded for a yearling when he piuckily beat all opponents for the possession of the Persimmon—Ornament filly, for whom ho bid 10,000 guineas How under the name ol S"optre the filly won for her ownor over £38,000 in stakes, and to bo eventually Quitted at 25.000 guineas, are facts long since established.
Rorke'a Drift, who won the Dunedin Cup in February last, and who is still numbered among the racing division, it is interesting to relate, was recently represented in the winning sires' list. Mottle, who won the Visitors' Handicap at the Siverton meeting, claims Rorke's Drift as sire..
On Monday next Mr. P. J. McManemm will issue his adjustments for the Groat Northern Hurdle Race, Great Northern Steeplechase, and Cornwall Handicap.
A departure at the recent Avondale mooting that was much appreciated was tie placing of a fourth horse in each race where the starters exceeded that number.
NOTES FROM ELLERSLIE.
F. Loomb intends returning to Gißborne by the first available steamer with Downham and Carlysian, which pair will not bo engaged at the Ellerslie winter mooting. Cynio will remain at headquarters to complete ments here next month. This son of Henry the First promised to be in keen demand for the Great Northorn Hurdles prior to unseating his horseman in the Waikumeto Handicap Hurdles at Avondale on Wednesday, but ainoe failing to complete the course on that occasion, has gone out of favour. He moved sore prior to his Avondale engagements, and is certainly not entirely suited on hard going, but with the sting out of tie turf during the winter, and more experience over hurdles, ho may be seen to advantage. ' Tirau was taken back .to Hawera on Thursday, and after competing at the Egmont fixture this month, will, in all probability I bo taken south to Dunedin, to complete obstacle engagements at the forthcoming Wingatui meeting. The victory scored by Ditto in the Waiku--1 mete Hurdles at Avondalo, on Wednesday, was of tho bloodless order, but it is worth noting that the aged daughter of Spalpeen— Repetition completed tho two-milo course •over foncos with list 131b on her back in the fair time of 3m 495. Tho country racing indulged in by the Waikato mare evidently served its purpose well, for she is now staying on better than she formorly gave any evidence of. Though Entente Cordiale failed to go far in the Waikumeto Hurdle event at Avondalo on Wednesday, it will be surprising if she tails to furnish into a good performer over fences. Sho is an aged daughter of Elys.an from Miss Nelson, and on appearances certainly gives some promise of turning oat useful. Tiniroto, who has performed vory creditably in the hunters' class at Ellerslie in the past, did not appear too sound in limb on his return to tho paddock after his Waikumeto Hurdlo mishap.' He was being marked off as a likely steeplechase candidate, and it is to be hoped there is nothing seriously wrong with tho son of Glongowno. He is in the right hands to receive caroful treatment. , . • .. 1 Yankee Jack, who got on the winning list over hurdles at Trentham. hails from J. Bull's stables at Msrton, and it is worth noting that ho figuros in both the Ureal Northern Hurdles and Great Northern Steoplochase. The same stable have Master Lupin engaged in the Great Northorn double. It may be fairly safe to say that no horse which ever represented Auckland in an important handicap away from home ever carried more support locally than Mr. b.W. Alison's Spanner in the Thompson Handicap last Thursday, when ho was defeated a neck by that great handicap horse Sasanof Had the positions been reversed, local . followers , of the turf would have reaped a rich finan- I cial harvest. Signature made Ms best effort to date over hurdles when ho acted as runner-up to Ditto on Wednesday at Avondale tho son of St. Amans made a very game bid oyer the last four funongs. but found Ditto too classy, though the supporters of the Avon-dale-trained gelding wero rewarded with a good return on their investment* for secona place. Signature is evidently a safe fencer and if tried over big country may meet with more success in that class than, with tho more speedy horses engaged m hurdio On his display at Avondale, Benzine does not threaten to prove a much better investment over hurdles than on tho M Tho aged son of Trephine has proved a keen disappointment to his supporters since finishing third in a hack event at Ellerslie last June. If qualified as a hunter, he may prove a payable proposition in that class. Though she gave distinct promise of earning a siako at Avondale, tho San Fran mare, Ohinewairua, (ailed to register oven placa honours in either of her engagements on tho suburban track, and she may be just a shade over-rated. However, this must not be taken to mean that shy has done her dash, and when tho class is moderate the aged chestnut mare must claim consideration. Well over £2000 was spent on her failures at tho suburban meeting. Gaycium made soma amends for past failures by netting £240 in her two engagements at Avondalo on Wednesday. Sho returned a surprisingly good dividend in tho Waitakere Handicap, after her good second to Carlysian earlier in the day. J no daughter of Gazelcy—Cricinm has evidently thrived well on tho country racng she indulged in, but is i"'-'v ' •"'I'T in her career Gayciam was regarded as ft champ,< sprinter, but thougn sue .a.n.u au occasional stake never really ran up to her private reputation. Staccato never displayed any of her former speed in her Avondale engagements, but the racing she indulged in may improve the daughter of Husbandman and Piriwai. Stammer,'who cost Mr. G. Green £250 prior to the Nursery Handicap at Avondale. on Wednesday, now forms one of J. Lambess's team at Ellerslie. Sho was engaged at the Manawatu meeting, but is not likely to complete her engagements. Fabriquetto, who has displayed no distinct fancy for right-handed courses of late, will probably face the starter on the left . handed track ft' Awaptini nest week. Wh<-n| she won a double at Thames in March she i was always going kindly left-banded, and some hope » held out that the daughter of Truro may prove a hotter investment At Awaruni than at Avondale, Thit good horse Hyllus made a groat bd for tie Welter Handicap Slake at Avondalo, on Wednesday, but failed by a length to reach Corregidor. Hyllu3 always appears to perform bettor after having had a race into him. no is in groat heart just at present, and with fair treatment ra the poundage, should continue to pay las way during the w.nter months. H Robinson tried his best to rush Crowhurst to the front in the straight at Avondale on Wednesday, but tho son of Rokoby did not relish his welter impost the last portion of tho journey, and s x furlongs under a medium scale of weights appears to be his limit just at present. However, Iho chestnut has plenty of time to develop into a fair middle-distance performer. Kauri King was noticed going on nicely at the close of tho Wolter Handicap at. Avondale on Wednesday, and the flat rating he has had should serve to fit him well for tho hurdlo racing ho is likely_to indulge m , during the winter months. 1 no son of boult is very healthy in appearance. j Rockfiold did not appear to relish his . task either day at Avondalo, though carrying good support in each start Ho was in I the rear at the close of the Welter Hand.- ] cap on Wednesday. | Gaziqito and Sheila have been entrained to Palmorston North, where they are ongaged at the Manawatu meeting next week. | Multive, another member of Morse's team, | will join the pair and complete hurdle en- I gagements. Hetaua also left ElWslie tho other morning in charge of W. Thompson. The son of Demosthen-s and Fairy Cold has . classic engagements to fulfil at Awapuni after which he will be spoiled during the winter months. The public would not accept Gaziqtie » defeat of Saturday, and again made him favourite on Wednesday. He wai rushed to the front early and any desire ho may have hud to run out as on, opening day was provented almost throughout by other competitors racing on til a outside of hum ito was called upon for a keen struggle in tho straight, but lasted long enough to stave off a determined challenge from Waiuta, who had some ground to make up down the back. It was a close thing between the pair at the finish, and Gazique's supporters were greatly relieved when his number was Taiamai failed to find the front early in the Autumn Handicap at Avondale on Wednesday, but was racing handy to theleaders when she met with interference neanng tho seven furion* post, which coat tar some (
lengths. She never really, went kindly after- • wards, and finished outside * Place. However, she is still Taiamai, and with another year on her age may be expected to render further good service to those interested in her turf career. , , , , „ ... H. Goldfinch and J. Roach headed the list of victo""us horsemen at Avondale, with three winner each. A. J- McFlynn and W. Raynier each steered two winners, while the following horsemen scored a single:— B. Kelly, E. Warner. H. Robinson, *M. D. O'Shea, W. Bagby and Burgess. Pierrot stripped in great heart on Wednesday last, but the turf was too arm for him to hit out boldly. He is more ».t home on a soft track. Empire proved Quite as unruly at Avondale as ho ever was, and his owner must bo growing tared of tie eon of General Latour. . _ ~„ , The Thames owner, Mr. J. TwoM, has been experiencing a fair turn of fortunes wheel of late, and at Avondale both General Stephen and Escaped won in his colours. This pair bore a well trained appearance. The latter should turn out a very Useful horse in a better class than hacks later on. The manner in which he found the front in the straight on Wednesday last impressed quite a number of turf students. , Korehone raced himself out before the last furlong of the Wolter Handioap on , Wednesday and the placed horses experienced little difficulty racing past him- The son of Gluten got all the best of the despatch. It is stated the connections, of Penona would havo roapod a good win had not Escat.ed loomed up in the straight and defeated too daughter of Penury into second place in the Mount Roskill Handicap on Wednesday at Avondale. She was returning good double figures for a win, while for second place tho dividend was regarded as hnndsomo. On her last public showing, Penona wiJl bo in some demand at Kawakawa next week. Corrogidor was in great .form at Avondale, winning twice and finishing second in his other start. The son of Hierarch had boon causing his owner-trainer, Mr. R. J. 0 rah am, some anxiety prior to the meeting. The Waikato sportsman has had a fair share of success this season with Corregidor and Caballero. Tho former netted £510 in stakes at Avondale. All Talk ran two good races in the handicaps nt Avondale, and he will have Quite a number of frionda when his turn comes to raco over fences. His pace should, be of service in hurdlo events. He has given promise in his schools essays over, fences. Spalporion was showing some signs of unsoundness when ho pulled up after winning the steeplechase on Wednesday, and certainlv does not threaten to stand a very searching preparation for any important contest. However, the coming of winter and soft tracks should aid his trainor m tho task before him. It transpired that he was cut about somowhat when ho raced through one of the brush fences in Wednesdays race. No less than 13 different trainers were successful at Avondale. R. J. Graham, T. Morris, nnd K. Hoaton led in two winners each, while the following wore responsible for one e.ich :— Fryer, F. Tongs, L. Wilson, W. Rayner, C. Morse, D. Winder, A. W. Bovoridgo F. Loorab. H. James, and Mrs. E. Coffey. Only throe of the. winners figured on tho regular list in training at Elicrslie. Penclon. who has boon causing his ownertrainer some anxiety, is to be qualified for tho hunting class. Bitholia has been located at Ellenhe tor some days. The thoroughbred purchased by W. Fobs in the South is due to arrive shortly, and will go into K. Heaton'a charge. Waimai. who it. already in the market for tho Groat Northern Steeplechase, is still located at Elloralie under G. Henderson, who is keeping the son of Spalpeen in steady work. With stake money to the extent of £3160 offered .'or comnotition at the Otahnhu Trottine Club's Winter Meeting, it was Quite anticipated that the secretary. Mr. .R. L. Absolnm, would have the satisfaction of compiling a strong list of .entries therefor and from the respective lists published in another column, it will be recognised that there is splendid material for a highly successful meeting at Alexandra lVrk on May 17 and 31. , Desert Gold having been allowed to drop ont of the Trritham Gold Cup would appear to Point to" tho All Black mar* not born* qir'te herself.

PROSPECTS FOR TO-DAY. [BI TELEGRAPH.—OWN CORRESPONDENT.] WELLINGTON, Friday. Tho Wellington mooting will bo concluded to-morrow, and flno weather is predicted. Yankee Jack will be a good favourite in the Hark Hurdles, in which there is a fresh horse, in Munster. engaged. Tho Hutt Handicap has a field of ten with the three-year-old Rebekah at tho top of tho hand cap. Comment has been much in tho limelight of late and if she runs as well as she. did in January on the same course she will be the hardest to beat. Hurry Up and Active will both have a good backing. Tho Speaker and Pretty Bobby ar© again engaged in the Muritai Hand.cap, and they will bo better fruited ovor the shorter course. If better handled than he was on the first day Pretty Bobby should bo hard to boat. lie Pacific Handicap looks particularly own, but form points to Rod Pepper, who came from behind on the opening day. Murihiku may not see ont the distance, but Night Raider will be better for the race he had on the first day and should go well over the longor colirso. Amythas should also do better. He was left on the opening, day and then had bad luck throughout the race. Vagabond, with Gray in the saddle, will bo favourite in the Autumn Handicap, but Glendower, Nobleman, and Rude will also como in for support It is a good fiold and the issue is not confined to the horses named. The Suburban Handicap will sop Spanner in the position of favourite, and he will be ridden by Dooley, who was successful on Waimatao tho first day, but a rw» of 18lb ■nny stop tho hard-pulling Auckland horse. Kebekah and Bo Peep should run well among the others.. Spinner mil saddle up a better horre for his race on the first day The meeting will conclude with the Belmont Handicap Astinomo is again engaged and with Charley and Old Gold she is sure to be well backed as sho is a greatly improved filly.
