MELBOURNE NOTES.
(PEP- PRESS ASSOCIATION.) Melbourne, October 29. Whakawai did his last long work before the Cap this morning, when ho was given a strong two mile and a quarter gallop, going SP Veffpa!iia, William Tell, and T.W., have been scratched for the Melbourne Cnp.
CHRISTCHURCH NOTES. Christchurch, October 29. St Clair and British Lion commenced work this morning with a good three-quarter pace gallop over two miles. Both moved well, but St Clair subsequently walked a little lame. Lorraine did a mile and a quarter steadily. This horse appears perfectly sound, and has been eased in his work for the past two or three days. Strenuous covered two miles at half pace, and Vandal was sweated over the same distance, Exchange and Son-of-a-Gnn were sent a mile and a half at top, there being little to choose between the pair at the end. Manton took easy exercise over two miles and a half. Chain Shot and Engagement galloped the Cup distance at a strong pace, and Silvermark was sweated over four miles. Ruby traversed two and a half miles at an easy pace, and Richmond led Phormium Tenax in a steady canter over the same distance. Loohiel is reported to be doing good work at Yaldhurat.
