NOTES AND COMMENTS S 1 (By "Carbine.") Acceptances for the first day of the • Wellington meeting cloeo at 9 o’clock to 1 night. P. Clarke arrived at Trer.tham on Saturday night with Comical, Bagdad and Diamond Ring. Kilbird, who is engaged at the Wellington and C.J.C. meetings, will be brought through to Trentham from Opaki to-day or tomorrow. Miss O’Dille was a tig tip for the two-year-old evont at Masterton on Satur- ■ day, but sho had behaved badly at the barrier before the trial run down the straight on the first day and those who noticed this would not be on her. They were right, for the Joculator filly was left at the post. • Proclaim .should never have been beaten , ii. the 'Highwcight at Masterton on Sati urday. Fisher is backward and tailed the field in Saturday’s Highweight Handicap. Goldshine has finished with the racing track and his owner has given him away to be U9ed as a hack. Old Chimera is well and her party should get a race out of her at one of the small meetings later on. One of the Freddy Archers who performed at Masterton let go the reins when he drew the stick in a. close finish, and after the honces passed the post he had to recover them from somewhere up near the horse’s ears. Helen Rufus was unlucky on Friday, but, with Kilbird out of the way, looked a groat bet on Saturday, and lior supporters were well paid when they collectlod more than even money. If she had got away well Merry Queen would have been very troublesome on Friday, and in the circumstances she paid a false price on Saturday. J\ Hazelman is duo at Trentham early this week with Mr C. Edgar's team. He will be accompanied by J. Olsen. They say that wh*n a certain horse won the other day tbo party was not on it, and that n well-known punter got the moT ey.
