The racehorses Karapoti and Hercmia were shipped to Sydney by the Marama yesterday The arrangements to ship Jjctitia, Hard 'Words and Timorous by the same steamer were cancelled and they did not make the trip. Karapoti and Heremia were scratched for all engagements at the Auckland Racing Club's Autumn Meeting at 10 a.m. yesterday. It was confidently expected that Airtight would make a bold showing tn the McGutre Memorial Steeplechase at Paeroa on Ihursday, but ho failed to infuse any dash into his fencing and was well beaten. It will he necessary for him to &ive & mucJl bettci exhibition of jumping if he is to have a winning chance to-day. Those who had seen High Finance schooling at Ellerslie were prepared to see her make a good showing in the Handicap Hurdles at Paeroa but., after jumping the first two fences in dashing style and establishing a good lead early, she displayed a dislike for her task and ran off at the fence near tho six-furlongs post. High Finance appears to be becoming moody and unless she races more generously in future VV. Kemp is likely to have difficulty m placing her to advantage.

Until he won the Ohinemuri Cup on Thursday Puriri Park had not attempted a middle distance, but the manner in which he run out the 10 furlongs and 20yds. suggests that he is likely to succeed over even longer distances. Certainly, the 1 aeroa course is in favour of speedy horses like Puriri Park, but lie has an abundance o staying blood in his pedigree and he should have no difficulty in running middle distances successfully on larger courses than Paeroa.
