ELLERSUE AND TAKANINI

(Peb United Press Association.) AUCKLAND. November 2,

Beautiful .weather, prevailed for -the final gallops at Ellerslie this morning. The course proper, with the poles about 30ft out, was open for the fast work, and the ; goihg was.excellent.. - : , ' Spiral and. Hawthorn opened the proceedings, being sent over, the first three furlongs in 39 4-ssec, and the -full distance in Imin 20sec. Hawthorn eased in the straight,, and Spiral was a number of lengths in front at the finish. The Mitchelson Cup candidates, Carfex and _Red Sun, with Senegal, jumped away at the mile post. The last-named was in front pver half the journey, 'where Carfex and Red Sun moved up,, Carfex eventually finishing oyer a length ahead of Red Suni with Senegal several lengths away. The first four furlongs were fun in 51 l-ssec, and the full distance in Imin 45 3-ssec.'’ It was. a good gallop, with Carfex going particularly well at the finish, though Red Sun, who' was op the outside, also did his work impressively. ~ Whenuakura, after running his first two furlongs in 24 3-ssec, reeled off the half-mile in 50 3-Sscc. He went from the mile to the half-mile post, and did his work attractively. Pomp jumped away at the five-furlong post, running the' first two furlongs in 25sec, and completing his

task in ; Imin iL3-ssec. He . was running on solidly at the finish, and is in great heart.

View Halloo, Lord Val, and All Humbug were associated. The first half of a mile took 52 l-ssec, and the full distance occupied Irain 46 l-ssec. View Halloo was in front at the end, doing the work very impressively. Lord Val was about two lengths away, a length in front of All Humbug. • The last-named got his tongue over the bit, which would probably account for his failure to make a better showing. Porotiti had Chief Cook as a companion over'' six furlongs. The first three took 39 l-ssec, and the full distance Imin 19sec. They were together at the finish. Though Porotiti, on the outside, appeared to be doing the better of the pair. Chief Cook also did a solid trial.

The two-year-old Mother Superior was sprinted half a mile, going from the mile to the four-furlong post. She ran the first two in 24 3-ssec, and completed the task in 50 4-ssec. After breakfast Kiltowyn gave Jewelled Girdle several lengths’ break at the sixfurlong post, and was a shade in front ; at the finish in Imin 18 3-ssec. Kiltowyu’s performance was a good one, as he was conceding the other horse a lot of weight. However, the track was a bit faster after the interval. . The Guineas candidate Ring Musk worked easily over a mile, running the distance in Imin 52 l-ssec. Baroscope worked over a round, but did not have much pace on till the last five furlongs,, which he covered in Imin 5 2-ssec. Barograph assisted him oVer the last three: furlongs, traversed in 38 3-ssec. Baro-: scope worked exceptionally well. The two-year-olds Red Flame, Seven; Seas, and Sporting Song ran home in that order from the three furlong post in 38sec. Red Flame, who has done well recently, put plenty, of dash into his work. , Count Lendroff (M; Jennings) went away near the mile post, and jumped the' two fences on the hill and the stone wall at the foot, being then pulled on to the course proper. He gave a first-class display. * Riotous (C. Thomson), Patutahi (Burgess). and Huawai (I. Tucker) were associated in a round of the steeplechase course. They commenced at the sod wall, and after jumping the fences on the flat continued up the hill, Patutahi being pulled off at ’ the top of the The other pair again went over the fences on the flat. Riotous, who was having his first experience over the Ellerslie country, gave a fine exhibition, and Patutahi also fenced satisfactorily. Huawai, who was some distance back at the finish, hit the last obstacle, the stone wall, and dis-. : lodged his rider. ; v Gold Trail was scratched for the: Mitchelspn Cup at 9 a.m. to-day. The arrivals this morning were Sea Fox, Davidstock, Aga Khan, and Diagano. The inside grass was open for the fast; work at Takanini, the going being excellent. Exaggeration appeared to be doing i a shade better than Greek Gold at the end of five furlongs. Both horses were in excellent order. King March jumped away in advance of Speedmint at the. mile, but the latter quickly assumed com-; -mand, and-was-not troubled to win by a,' couple of lengths in Imin 48 4-ssec-Speedmint worked well and was not extended. King March’s effort was very disappointing. Alignment completed an easy six furlongs in lmin,l9 3-ssec.; Gay Sheila and Gay Marigold were companions over five, furlongs in Imin 3 4-ssec. Gay. Sheila was too good, and was going very easily, at the finish.

A WIN FOR WINOOKA

(United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) BALTIMORE, November 1. Tbe Pimlico Handicap, of six furlongs, resulted: — WINOOKA 1 GOLDSTEP 2 TAMBOUR .. .. .. .. 3 Winopka ran a good race. Hope To Do was scratched at the last minute. Winooka broke with the field, but Britt did not rush him. In the early part of the race the horse was permitted to settle into his best stride. Britt asked for a little more from his horse just after passing the half-mile pole, and Winooka began picking up on the leaders. He was forced to circle several horses on the turn, and came very wide into the stretch. This cost him a lot of ground. When he was straightened into the stretch Winooka responded willingly to -the hard urging. He wore the leaders down, and was up to win by a head. Britt was driving him hard near the end to fight off Goldstep and: Tambour. A head separated the last two.

Winooka’s victory netted his owners 2500 dollars. The time, Imin II l-ssec, was 2-ssec slower than the track record. It was a popular victory. The crowd was brought to its feet by the close finish.
