Amongst the | visitors was a lady, three members of the i Wellington Racing Club, andji good number of Petono residents. Nearly all | Clio hoises engaged l at the mooting put in an appearance, and tl)0 tracks wore I fully engaged from five p,’clock till seven. The whole of the Cup candidates -were worked. Matcror. looks aright and well, and appears mere likely to see the .Tourney out, than Palaver or Kahuwai. Renown worked with ideal and Paphos on the grass. Thev galloped once round, the last, half at'nearly top, and finished together. Renown returned to the scraping sheds wit bout showing any effects of the hard going. Mr Baldwin’s two-year-olds Spun Gold (Gold R-etef Puwerewere) and Benefactor (Stepniak— Charity) were spurted over five furlfega. They van the distance in Imin "sec, the jast four furlongs being traversed in 03sce. tv'. Holmes had Chasseur, Bulrush and L-aurcstimv out. The last-nam-ed galloped seven furlongs in Imin 3M-.ec. GokWpuv (in bandages’) van four furlongs on the grass in 52scc. I)cwurco (Fcwlor) .started with him, but could not foot it with the Bubeaahl gelding at his pet distance. T. Qumhvan worked Palaver, The- Shannon, who has put on weight since the spring meeting, hub is still rather light on it, and .the] tiro-year-olds Destroyer and Indian! Queen. The latter is fit and will keep! Menschikolf going in the Wellesley i Stakes. Other recent, arrivals on thoi tracks wore R. Connop’s two-yoar-old Rore (WaterMI —Parlour Maid), tho consistent black gelding AYhilirea, J. jlimn and Kahuwai. Oingo and Autaia, and R. Geoseman with Coour de Lion, who did a round on the gass at three-’' ouarter pace. Sirius and Kowheto (Apreniont—Whisper). Fashion (Wilson) Was defeated by Ngatiluiia (Jenkins') in a mile gallop on tho grass. The last seven furlongs was done in Imin SS.seo.. I*ashion was beaten by about four lengths. Mcnsohikotf defeated Cruciform by about two lengths in a. half-mile spurt on tiro, grass, which took dOsec to negotiate. Advance finished some lengths in trout rf Ostiak in a, threc-nuartor mile go on tho grass, which the former ran in Imm I7scc. Xgaparu. Tscaio, Buttleaxe, Dartmoor, Cora Linn. Full Cry, Artisan and Perfection were among the other late arrivals who wore exercised.

The list of probable starters and ridds iu it ho Wellington Cup is,., as follows---Boreas 9ct3!b (Jenkins), Cor nr do Lion Sat 101 b (Whitaker), Renown H i 101 b (Davis), Tortnlla- Bst 101 b (McTaggaH), Paladin 7st 121 b (Katcliffe'' Materoa 7st 12lb (Holmes), Palaver 7st KMh> (Neale), Skoboloff 7st 71b (Hewit-f), Kahuwai 7st 61b (Kemp). Jenkins, Wilson, Price, O’Brien and Hewitt have been most consistent in the training gallops, and are pretty certain to be ine)tided among ‘he winning horsemen at the meeting. J. Gallagher arrived from Auckland on Saturday night, and did Iris shave of the work on Sunday morning. The lion J. D. Ormond will only start one ‘horse in the Wellington Cup. probably Renown, who promises to be favourite* Mr Prosser informs our represen. Active that be intends to start both Boreas and Tortnlla. iEncas. who made the final payment for the Wellington Stakes, was not brought down from Napier. Stuart Waddell’s team is .made up of Ideal, Renown Pnnhos. IT. ook.r and Menura. Mr' Stead’s Field Rose is amiss. This accounts for tbo absence of her name from the list of final payments for tire Wellington Cup. D. Chapman has brought down Black Wing (West-mere— -Echo) to compote in tbo Hack Dhno.-M Stakes on the third day. Heritns, who was engaged in the same race, lias broken down, and will not bo .seen out at the meeting. After .witnessing the form of the competitors on the tracic our representative expects the following horses to run well iu their to-morrow : Anniversary Handicap.—Bla/.cr, with a start. In Ins absence, Mel wood or Perfection. Maiden Pla le--Fashion. Lnurcstma. Wellington Cup-r-SkofaofotF, Borca*, Renown. Wellesley Queen. Prcsiden t’ > Ha nd i cap—llumimha nga, Queen’s Guard.
