NOTES BY PHAETON. IHSW ZEALAND HORSES IN AUSTRALIA When horses hailing from this Dominion vera assembling in New South Wales m previous years preparatory to the spring meetings there u ireqnent heading m some cf the Sydney papers connected therewith has read: "A New Zealand Invasion." Judging iron the shape matters are assxmnj this year, there will be some encouragement for our Sydney friends to repeat the caption indicated. Already Quite a number cf New Zealand horses hare been transported to Sydney, and with Night Kirch. Seat own and True Shaft now on the Tray, the coming week will see that trio at, Band wick. According to present arrangements, Limerick and Pac.uito are to be iliippS's to Sydney nert week. and Honour is also booked for early transportation. Nerida is also included anions the probable migrants, and several nsins two year-olds are likely to be taken across to Sydney. Apparently there will be a sreat deal once again to centre interest in Australian racing dunes the coming spring. TEEEE-YEAR-OLD WINNERS. It is rjnite certain that the stake record e: Coronach at three years old. registered ill England in 1926. will be sure to stand so far as the present season is concerned, ana Triva.ve's ATistra'.ian record of last aeaacn also continues to hold the leading position in the Commonwealth.

At the yearling stace of his career Roundelay sade a favourable impression and bo was bought by Mr. V\. H. Gaisfcrd for GOOsns. The team cf racers carrying the colours cf Mr. W. H. Kern ball ha 3 not been so numerous during the season just drawing to a close as in former years, but nert ; aeason may be expected to find the ilasterton sportsman more extensively represented. Mr. E.embnli'3 team at present in work for j text season's racing comprises eight horses. It is stated that the sum paid by Messrs. Richardson and Wiison for Overhaul when tee Danedimtes bought the Tractor gelding from Mr. J. Fro?t waa lOOOgn.s. At one stage it seemed as though the vender had the best of the deal, but Overhaul's form of late has placed matters m a different and he can new be regarded as tomes-hat like a gaid-tipped bargain. Seme little time back it was stated that, despite the fact cf Rapier's name being JniEsing from the bis handicap events, there was a prospect of the sen of Greyspear beinir sent across to Australia in order to contest m the wpight-for-nga class durinz the co ram? spring. Information now to iiad from Canterbury states that tbe conteasplated trip to Sydney has been definitely abandoned. All being well. Kapier will !
