NOTES FROM ELLERSLIE.

GOSSIP OF THE TRACKS. BY AI;CHER. It is almost certain that M osa^c taken to Treutham to meet his engagements at the Wellington summer meeting. Mosaic has taken no harm from his re-cent racing and is undoubtedly a hardy one. for ms inches he is extra good. Two newcomers to Ellerslio are a two-year-old bay f;lly by Quin Abbey from Bell Crispin and a three-year-old brown filly by King Lupin from Semolina. The Quin Abbey filly is a full-sister io Gala Day. Boomerday, and Abbey Bell. They are being handled by R. E. Brown. Cawnpore has been entered for tho leading Bprint events at the Wellington summer meeting, and, all going well, he will maKo the trip to Trent'nam. R. Reed has oeen engaged to ride him at that fixture. Messrs. J. C. and P. S. Gleesion have disposed of the three-year-old D/etis Circle who will in future be trained at Ellerslie by M. Ryan and is already included among the active brigade at headquarters. Raceful is to undergo another nreparation, and along with Mr. J. Fraser Smith's other horses, King Merv, Alfort, Muscari, Prince Abbey. Ouineite. and King Selwyn, he is now working a.t Ellerslie under the direction of J. Anderton. Raceful is in his ninth year and has been off the scene for some time. The two-year-old Arch Arrow appears to bo a delicate customer and has not. made much progress since the spring. u.. George has handled him carefully and the youngster has been doing a little better ouring the past few weeks. H, L. Russell has been out of luck with his team this season, but he has a more than useful pa,ir in Civility and Siaosi, who ran well enough at Ellerslie to suggest that they may soon reach the winning list again, Siaori was tried over a middle distance at the recent Ellerslie meeting, and, without earning any money, performed very creditably. The Lamb raced very consistently, but without much luck, at the recent meeting at Elleralie. This fellow is running in much better than formerly and can now get a milo rssther well. His latest show ings indicate that it will not be long before he annexes another stake. Master Doon has been a disappointment since he wor: the Railway Handicap 12 months ago. and in the interim he has failed to win n, race. By running third to Tukia and Day Guard at Ellerslie ast week he eavi> an indication that ho is coming on asa.in. for ho finished in front of some smart sprinters. None of the snrintprs were galloping hetrer than Finelli before the recent meetine, but she failed to win a, race. Finelli showed dash in each of her races and will come into her own acain later on.
