But for that he and Roman Abbey would have gone to Melbourne for the National jumping honors. • * • George Paul was desirous of getting A. Tinker to go across and ride Aussie m Sydney, but Tinker has a big team at Te Rapa, so could not accept the Australian trip. • * * With Roman Abbey and King's Guard, the Hannon stable should get some money among the jumpers at Trentham. * • * Flying Juliet is m retirement just now, but Trainer Edwards will get her ready for the spring of the year. # * * Taku Tama, which is going to ' form one of R. Hannon's team for the Wellington meeting, has been about the -premises several times of late m good handicap sprint class. # # # Prince Lu's double win over hurdles at the Auckland meeting needs only to be quoted when dealing with the future prospects of the Lucullus gelding. «• # * Paddon will be at Trentham. After his fine showing m the Cornwall Handicap they will all wish to be on G. Seifert's chestnut. «• ' * The Gordonton trainer, Ces. Lowe, is trimming up his natty little jumper, Mangani, for an assault on Trentham stake-money.
