jn an interesting, article on the Aga Khan’s . B|ie'shobij, Stud in, Ireland', ; a w riter ’in the London Snorting Life stated the Indian Prince had 27' brood mares there/ ; Twenty , had foals this season, arid the total sum expended to obtain tie services of, the sires of these foals was-. £BBs2—an ■ average for each foal of £442. One thing regretted by the 1 Aga Khan is that Brownhylda (dam of the St. lieger winner Firdaussi) and . Uganda (dam of the Oaks winner Udaipur) were among this season’s barren mares.. The Mosgiel Park racecourse, formerly the racing rendezvous of. the Taieri Amateur Turf Club, has been purchased by Sir R. Millar. The area of the ground ris over 60/acres and, .in years the race meetings were popular picpic meetr ings,.; with the club- holding-, two fixtures each season. It is possible that the train-, ing tracks, which.,supply, excellent going, will--still be available..:• . -i; . ... ... Gold Tinge and Caramba, 'two winners ’of the Breeders- Plate,-have fjnce- failed 'to-.win-.-a race. Bassantoh and Precious Gift, winners of the Gimcrack Stakes, also failed -to add. another won- to their credit. - On the other, hand winners, such as! Cisco/ Beragoon; -Heroic, and Ram-; pion; won the A.J.C. Derby and other races in their second season. Bpniform, the winner of the'first race, came back and -won the Great Northern Derby,. New Zealand Derby, and Great Autumn Handicap, his only starts -. on the turf! Night Recital has displayed good form up to a mile and if started in-the Timaru Cup would lend; interest to the rate, as ■'he shows evidence: of stamina/ : He is -figured’ in-two raceer-'and iii-Kis two latest starts finished second to Great Star at Ashburton and second to Belvoir at Geraldine. Night Recital won at the final /’day of the Grand National meeting when he gave 111 b and. a beating to. Hurlin-g-ham.

In the Longbeach Handicap, run on the final day of the Grand National meeting. Night 1 Recital gave 111 b each to Hurlingham and lan’s March over six furlongs with a head and a neck, between. Assuming that Night Recital is 14lb better op that .result oyer lan’s March it would place him.on.B.o in the Tycho, Handicap , and so on , a nar with. Hula, Belle. In the Flying ‘ Handicap Night Recital has to give Hula. Belle 101 b. The effect of the three-dividend system was closely watched. The general impression seems, to be. that, for 5s units it; is mot entirely satisfactory. There is no doubt, however, of -the . value to the club of the. two dividends in five-horse ’ races. ; ■ Usually, a five-horse race -means .■‘a- much, smaller.,;turnover, especially- for country cdulm. Otaki. had four such events? at the, meeting, no fewer than three of them on Saturday ■ for the last three races. How well- the. i turnover was maintained 1 against;this: handicap by the-two dividends is sliown by dhe figures.
