TAKANTNI TRACK NEWS CYLINDER'S HALF-BROTHER Weather conditions ht Takanini yesterday were good, but the tracks were soft after rain. A fair amount of sprinting work was recorded on the outside of the course proper. Tatyoon (Forsyth) was a couple of lengths clear rf Express (Jones) and Nicodemus (Taylo.) at the end of half a mile in 54 3-ss. but tLe trio were not asked for their best. Tatyoon ip looking very bright and the other two, although still at the green stage, nro progressing nicely. Gold Pocket ran half a mile at 15 to tho furlong. He has made satisfactory progress since resuming work.

Peter's Pride (Tuohy) showed a lot of dush while running two furlongs along the back in 255. The half-brother to Cylinder is , a dashing goex who promises to be ready early in the spring. Alignment (Taylor) was not doing his best • to run half a mile io 52 l-ss. This colt hes plenty of speed and should not remain lone in the maiden .class when he becomes solid in condition. Speedmint increased her speed over tbe last three' furlongs of a round and appeajs td be in good heart in spite of her pooj effort last month. . , , Cherry King (Manson) put a lot of dash into a three-furlongs sprint, but was not timed. This gelding has furnished nicely during the "winter and is expected to turn out very useful this season. ' . Hnnpere (Clifford) ran three furlongs in 39 3-ss, but had nothing in reserve. lie is a well-developed colt, but at present giygs the impression that, although taken up early, he will not be at his best in tixe "W' Paper Money-Killena colt hit out nicely while executing a short sprint up the straight. He keeps well to ground and has not waste action and is now Deginning to thicken out after coming in rather light. , ... it,The Hiker io being Qualified with the Pakuranga Hounds with a view.to contesting hunters' hurdle races.
