Most of the gallopmg was done on the outside of the course proper, the liags being out about 25 feet. Lor max (M‘ ravish ) agair pleased by defeating Ihe Lover over seven furlongs m Imm 34 4-ssec. The Lover struck himself and pulled up lame. The trouble is not considered serious,,and it is anticipated thaf he will be able to keep his engagement in the Te Awamutu Cup in which Corinax will also nm. Lady’s Bov and Taneriri recorded the smartest epnnt by running four furlongs in 50sec. _ They had fair weights up, and Lady’s Boy was going best at the finish. Tctrarchato sprinted' three furlongs niceJy in 38sec. This had ill Useful find will win races over short courses. (Ludlow) ?-d Praetor (M lavish) were on terms at the conclusion of six furlongs in train 19sec. Iraetor, on the inside, was going the easier at the end. and on this gallop he must be very dangerous in the Waipa Plate at Te Awamutu. Vallar easily ran four furlongs in Slsec and appears to be doing better than he was a few weeks ago. Roman Pearl led Sprint Abbey, a lazy, worker, over five furlongs in Imin 6 4-ssec. This-pair, who'are to race at Hawera next week, wore shipped away in charge of,J. Chisholm this afternoon. The best gallops on the No. 2 grass were Teatime., six furlongs in Imin 20 3-nsec, and Good Boy, six in train 21sec. Teatime is steadily improving in condition, and Good Boy is also doing well.
