TURF JOTTINGS TRACK AND STABLE GOSSIP Dalesman was supported very confidently in his starts at Woodville, but the longstriding two-year-old could not handle the turn into the straight, running: off the course on each occasion. Until ho becomes moro handy this tendency will weigh against him on small courses. Silver Mask, the Thoio two-ytar-old who recently returned to Hawke's Bay after an unsuccessful campaign in Victoria, has been entered for events at the Manawatu Racing Club's Summer Meeting. It is reported that while at Caulfield Silver Mask, carrying over 0.0, ran half a mile in 47'/.,5. The reason foi his'failures al Flemington was that each time lie shied at a crossing on the race track.
