TROTTING.

AUCKLAND MEETING.

TRAINING FOR SATURDAY.

USEFUL WORK ACCOMPLISHED

WARPLANE IN GOOD HEART.

After overnight ehowora tho dirt training track at Epsom was again heavy yesterday morning and littlo in the way of fast work was attemptod. The track improved rapidly aftor it had been harrowed, but mo3t trainers wero content to work their horses solidly on tho sand track.

. Logan's Prido wm indulged in some solid work without the hopples, und another to oxecuto a serviceable task was Lady Author. Warplano and Torpedo Hnon, who wero unhoppied, worked soundly over several circuits, both pacing with plenty of freedom. Warplane is in good heart and should make u hold showing off the limit in tho 2.11 mile ovont on Saturday.

Nelson Girl trotted solidly over a couple of miles on the outsido of the dirt track. If she would go as well as she does on the track, this mare would have possibilities among the elow-olass trotters. Mountain Dell was hoppled up and oncompassed several rounds at a solid apeed. She ia to be driven in her engagements at tho meeting by P. J. Smith. Evelyn Locanda's Task. Evolyn Locanda (T. W. Nightingale) was given useful exercise., She wont free-legged and paced nicely throughout, Evelyn Locanda is to bo driven in her engagements by J. Bryce. '■ Tradesman was given a useful work-out. Ho was accompanied by the pacing gelding Explosion, and both horses completed their work in a satisfactory style. Without displaying any speed, tho Thamesowned trotter Kupu Boy trotted at a solid clip for a milo and a-half.

Gold Dial Bleated when sent over two inileß. She is a solid and reliable pacer. Rose Bingen (A. J. Julian) trotted usefully over two miles. Rose Bingcn'B recent track essays indicate that she is not far off her best form. Araehne (J. 3. Shaw) was sent over sev. oral circuits. It was a nice piece of work and was performed in a pleasing manner. Arachno is very fit.

Tho Abbey is one of the fittest horees at Epsom and is fairly revelling in his work and displaying no little dash into tho barsain. Work on Qtahuhu Tracks. F. Gilchrist visited Otahuku with Direct Action on Tuesday afternoon. Tho trotter was worked on tho Grass, but left his feet when under pressure. Ilia effort did not please. Some Dillon was asked to go over a mile and a-half on Tuesday afternoon, and the chestnut gelding got through hia essay in a satisfactory manner. Some Dillon has raced consistently since hie initial etTnrt in December, and as he can both go fast and stay, he tdiould keep the opposition busy in his races at the meeting. It was an off morning at Otahuku yesterday. and there was nothing of interest on the track, although Carmel, Invader nnd Writer were out doing useful exercise. C. S. Donald's charges all look bright and should not be lacking in condition when required to race on Saturday. Realty was geared ut> and asked. to go a mile and a-half on the clay track. He paced pleasingly, but when pulled up showed signs of soreness.

Floraline, Great Ballin, Sebiscn, Lady X'vonne, Master Huia, Somo Dillon, Judy Thorpe and Kingsclere performed useful tasks on the clay at Qtakuhn. Tho Mangere-trained pacer Marionetto has done well of late. She possesses both npeed ar.d stamina ar.d as she has now bccomo solid, can be uxpected to acquit herself well in her engagements at the meeting.
