CAULFIELD futurity stakes. ) ' A VALUABLE RACE. BY PHAETON. '• Tho Canlfie'.d Futurity Stakes, which emr.es up for decision to-day,. is one cf tho most valuable classic events of the 'Australian turf. witS a money prize of £3500. The race in question is ran over «cven furlchga at. weight-for-age, with penalties and allowances. It is possible f ar a horse to incur 20lb. penalty, and. on ' the other ha-nd. to coma in with a 21ib. allowance. Eurythnric (20.7) won the race ill 1922 under a 20ib. penalty, and The Hawk (10.1) went closo to recording a like feat in 1023, when he ran Father' 3 Voice (5.5) to a head for first honours. Amounis is the one cast in tho heaviest penalty for to-day's race, and ho ia expected to make a bold bid for victory. The following is the list of the horses left in at the date of tho final paymenia:— St. lb. lAmcunis, 7yrs. by Magpie—Loved One 10 1 G-reenline. .i""T3. b7 Greensteaa— Ayrelino 9 13 ,Figure, 4yrs. by Three—Forfar Lass 9 7 Parkwood. by Backwood— Yooraia ..91 Merab, ays. by Two—Liafail .. ..30 Stage Saint.

THE FLEMINGTON MEETING. A'ew Zealand will not be extensively represented at the Victoria Racing Club's approaching autumn meeting. Gay Ballerina ia the only horse hailing from New Zealand engaged ia the Newmarket Handicap. while Second "Wind represents tho ■ Dominion's sale entrant for tho Australian Cup. However, the dual Derby winner Phar- Lap, /who figures in the Victoria St. Leger and two important weight-for-age laces, may be expected to win honours if ho ia in a position to reproduce the form ho displayed in the spring.

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES, TOXEUMA'3 "WINNINGS. Toisuma, who was bred by his owner, Sir. F. Ormond, has paid his way satisfactorily, for up to the present he has won. prize-money to the amount ox £3360, HOT FAVOURITE BEATEN. High Syce, whoso exploits lo3fc spring :n Victoria were made the subject of much 'eulogy, was sent oat an odds-on favourite for the Ci F.* Orr Stakes, run at the Williamstown meeting on the Bth mst., but fco failed to even gain a place, and thu3 was ones again emphasised the wise advice, " Never lay odda on." A SMART FILLY. Gallopade, 'one or the initial, progeny of tho Engiiah-bred horsei Top Gallant, was credited with possessing a brilliant dash of pace when she won tho C. F. Orr Stakes at Willi amstown on tho Slh iust. That Gailopade is highly estimated by her party Kay be guessed by tho fact that she was fiominated for the CaulSeid Futurity Stakes at a subscription of £SO. ■ Top Gallant won the Futurity Stakes ia 1926 under the steadier oi 10.2 in 1m 265 a. which ia one of the most brilliant feat 3 connected with tho aeven-furlons race at Caulfieid. Should Gailopade follow in her sire ' 3 footsteps by winning to-day's race, such will furnish an imeieiting Record for tho Turf Register. ARTKTNTTT AT FOUR YEARS. 'Arikinui ia earning a good character for consistency. At tho Wanganui meeting last week he ran second respectively in tho Flying Handicap and Farewell Handiand ..at the Woodvillo meeting this week he scored two victories. On the nrst day oi the last-named gathering ho led tho ■fie# homo in the Ruahino Handicap under '.13, and ou the second day he had a like record in the Telegraph Handicap, which event he won .under S.!. Arikinui is a; four-year-old gelding by Chief Ruler from the Hvmettus mars Celmisia, wnose dam. By By, gave the turf a gaud performer 1 in Harqueteur. TWO-YEAR-OLD WINNER. Trippin?/, who won the Debutante Stakes at tho Woodvillo meeting last Thursday, is a black ally' by Nigger Minstrel (ana of All Black) from Dam'y Step (daughter o£ LncolluB). In the matter of colour Tripping has thrv.vn to her dam. Dainty Step, who is of the dark shade, and Lucnllua is of the same colour. AUS TR A LL\ X-BR ED PAIR. Sold Front (by Magpie—Lacefront), who ■was a failure in Auckland, has managed to win a few/races at, East Coast meetings of a snedest character. Dimmer (by SarcheH«m—Tnmiigbt). who cost 1550 guineas ail s- yearling in tho autumn of 1925 and wno was subsequently quitted for a moderate figure, ; s also racing in tho Gisborno district. Last season he won a few races, hut. so ;ar this season ho has proved a complete 'disappointment. ENGLISH-ERED PARSEE. Par«ee, who finished second to Amotmia ior tho St. G-eorse Stakes, run at Caulfieid last •aaiifrday. is an English-bred horse by King Sol that was purchased in the Old Country by Mrs. L. R. Buxton, who clso races High Syce and Highland. Parsee is engaged in the Essendon Stakes, which event comes up ior decision next Saturday. PROMISING GELDING. In 'tho course of conversation with Mr. E. A. Price one day during tho present week ho pictured to mo a majestic three-year-ald gelding running at his Papatoetoo ?*'4to m s son of Lucullus from Lianberiii. With a strain of St. Simon on each mdo J" tho podisrea it is quite in order to ipara that tho gelding of attractive Bbysinuo. and tho fact of his not being J-rauied at/ the early stage shquld tell to ais advantage whoa he comes to race.
