He has no intention, however, of dropping his association with racing. He has Imperium, Locrian, Irvington, and Aquitania in regular work, and probably they will all be trained by him at Greymouth. Locrian will not fulfil his engagements at the Manawatu meeting, but he is booked for a trip to Trentham, to contest hack hurdle races. He will be accompanied by Imperium, who is a good prospect for hack races up to a mile. Riding engagements for Wingatui include L. J. Ellis—Milton Abbas, Johnemby.
