Yet Track Does Not Suit Style
(From "N.Z. Truth's" Special Auckland Rep.) Big Bertha claims a double engagement on opening day at TaUapuna. Her second acceptance is m the nine-furlong Poanui Handicap, m which the class is better than the High Weight. TIDAL heads the list In the Poanui, *■ and on his two hack victories at the Dargaville fixture would be a "hot pap" on a roomy track. The turns across the harWor place a different aspect m punters' minds, and it may be risky m his case, though he is of superior class. The distance should not be beyond Maori Boy or even "Winsome Boy, while Speechless, Bombarder and the improving Komak are not over burdened. Eager Rose, Brampton and Cybele are all more than possibilities at their easy poundage, but if Tidal is absolutely fit for the task he is the best horse m the' rape. * Still, he will need to be absolutely right m himself, with the turning track not entirely m his favor for \h is late run. Should Big Bertha start she cannot be entirely counted out with her pace. . It points to . TIDAL, BIG BERTHA. uiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiMiinnuiiiuiiiiiiiiiHiiiuiiiiiHiniiniiiiitimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniii
