(By "Salisbury." ) The first of tho new season's fixtures m Otago will be held by the Hunt Club at Wingatul to-day. Excellent acceptances have been received, and Mrs. Beatson and Mit. Dawson will have charge of tho luncheon and the booth respectively. An adequate train service - has been arranged for, and both expresses will stop at Wingatul. In the absence of Billy James m America, the tote will be run by George Wilhelmsen. Ray Caflln will be m the secretarial position, and all who know him can guarantee that part of the business. With Adjutor m the hurdles, it won't be hard to pick the favorite. i Tione has been moving well, and the brother of Roseday will make them hurry m whatever he starts. March Off is nothing more than useful, and % is more at home on the up-, counlry circuit. Sherlock looks none the worse for his recent efforts, and has been doing good track work. None of the otho-3 m the Cup Steeples will have it on him for pace. Kerb has been doing , it wall lately, and on Saturday last, m company •with Tlone, put up a particularly nice gallop. Wapping is a bit mow over tha early part of his races, but ho can put long ones m at the finish. Of the Vauxhall Held. King Sol haa the advantago of recent racing. Ho has to be kicked aldng to keep with them m tho early stages of his races. Orango Bitters Is not by any means ! a finished fencer, but ho hoa enough pace to bo a nuisance to the class of moke that contests the huntors* flata m Uicso parts.
