IJI-JIUIU WUJI UW.N \JOHBESn?ONDKINT.) ,y Christchurch, November 5. A_ damp cold morning was experienced wit " a drizzling rain pretty well all through exerch lt hours.' Boulanger cantered twice round HL 1, "a cat pn hot bricks," and Thame was ser c twice round at half and three-quarter pace on th c grass. St. Katherine went onco round—her firs j, appearance since breaking a small blood-vesse! i- Skirmisher aud Dilemma covered a mile an s a-half at a very strong pace, both going ver c well and pulling np fresh and sound. Hose Q feldfc and Ua were sent once round at top c while Prime Warden and The Workman wer a spun out at top over a mile and a-half. The pai ) went well together for a mile, but after tha . Prime Wardeu was pulliDg badly over his com 3 panion and finished in front wifch the greates B of ease. The Workman will not, I think, wii b the New Zealand Cup. Norton galloped a mih i and a-half fast, brought home by Cajolery over the last mile. Norton had the best of that go I and he is a really good horse. Vogengang ; Sheelah, and Lady Zetland covered six fur , longs at top, the latter having all the best of th< » gallop. Balquither was sent once round fast j looking slightly lame afterwards, but Jacl [ Butler says he has often had him like that.
