NOTES FROM THE NORTH

(From "N.Z. 'Truth's" Special Auckland Rep.) j JACK SHAW haa gone to Addington with Amaris and Jewel Pointer. He usually gets some of the money. • • • Luran is recovering and will be thereabouts for the cash at Otahnhu. • • * Horizon ie expected to again take his turn at winning. • • c Gaza is not quite forgotten by the books, who spilt their cash over him at Gisborne. He is still active under Cameron. • • • They know all about Jewel Pointer m saddle down south. He won at Addington m August. • * * Northern trainers still intend to make themselves heard regarding the throwing open of the outside of the course proper at Alexandra Park for a final work out before each meeting. Such a concession is desirable and will do the track no harm. • # # Western King is mending slowly, but he will be got right again with the careful attention he is receiving. • ■ • • Owner M. Moodabe, who has experienced a full share of success since entering the trotting game, took to the ranks of benedicts this week. # m * All Bell may race better fresh, as when he won last month, but he will be more forward next time out. * * * The Tartar is what his name indicates — risky. * * # The turn of Van Rich may come any day. » * * Bingen King can go some m private, and time may bring about the necessary confidence on race days. * # * Though the northern representation of horses is meagre at Addington, quite a number of Auckland enthusiasts intend being present at the New Zealand Cup fixture. Handicapper G. Paul will be among the number. * # # Great Peter is m toil at Manqere and the classic winner of last season will be produced shortly. He can be followed with safety. * # * Free Advice can be relied upon to earn stake-money for the McKendrick brothers, but she is not going to be hustled early m her career. She made a good showing m the Derby. # # * Delavan Bill is back under his old master. » • # Direct Morning is as bold as ever. Whenever he leaves the mark kindly m the future the others will know they are moving. # * # There are as many inquiries about Talaro and Audacious up north as about Cardinal Logan for the New Zealand Trotting Cup. * * * They are still talking about the wins reaped over Tiger Salve at Auckland, and they say there are more to follow. * # * Otahuhu this month is keeping northerners busy, though another invasion from southerners is feared. # * * It seems that Goldjacket is always best first pop. That, may be worth remembering. * * * Waikato T.C. will race on the new track next month. It is m good order. Dick Dillon is liable to get into the money any day. * # * Black Lila should come home during the season. No great size, but speedy when at her best. * * * Anselm is coming on fast and is worth watching for future engagements. # # # Respect is beginning to look his true self again. * * * Ruapere has more than a kick left. # * # Amaris favors the Addington turf track. May get home next week.
