TALK OF THE DAY.

BY MAZBPPA.

*** Mr B. Graham announces the trotting stallion Erin as being at the service of mares in the Hyde, Sowburn, and surrounding districts. Erin is by Le Loup, grandsire of Cowboy, a well-known winner.

* # * Telegraphing on Wednesday "Rata" says :—": — " The best gallop of the morning was a • go ' between Beadonwell and Clanranald over two miles, in which Beadonwell licked the head off Lunn's chestnut."

*** From what I can make out it would be wisdom for clubs that reckon themselves jeopardised for next season in consequence of the new totalisator limitation rules coming into operation to make some sort of provisional arrangement!, as opportunity serves, for amalgamation with their nearest neighbours. The season is creeping on, and -some of the fixtures now in the calendar are being held for the laqt time — that is tilt the advent of the bappy day when racing men will be credited with enough sense to manage their own concerns.

*** On Tuesday morning I went out to the Forbury hoping to see the work, but they had been at it since daylight, and by the time I arrived all the early birds were away. I learned that Dilemma had done a fair gallop in view of Oamaru, that Rangiatea had alsa been sent against the watch, and that one of the best gallops of the morning was a six-furlong spin between Outpost, Hippomenes, and Victim. I regard .this as important in the sense of showing that Outpost appears to be sound. One spin I did see was that wherein Rebel gave Fortress a bad doing, and another was a mile gallop in which Captive beat Maribyrnong. Rancour ran a gallop the day before, and so had Casket. All of these horses are very well.

*** Tahuna Park trotting races are to be held on Saturday of this week. The acceptances appear in another column. So far as I know the candidates for the Maiden Race (in saddle), Granville should have a show, and perh» BBB B Marusa. Jack the Eicpor, midget though

he is, will very nearly get through in the Pony Race ; if he is beaten it maybe by York. Dexterina has only to keep steady to win the Spring Handicap, but she cannot afford to break with Bedale and Butcher Boy behind her. Rosewood is my fancy for the Novel. Bedale, unless distressed in his previous race, should very nearly win the Domain Handioap. For the Maiden Race (in harness) I like Inferno, and Lady Jane may account for the St. Kilda Handicap, while Tommy will take rome beating in the Final. The track, declared by judges to be the best one in the colony, is in splendid order, and cannot be spoiled even should a deluge of rain fall.

*#* It is understood that the New Zealand Trotting Association is dead. Ido not know that this is to be regretted. It had outlived its usefulness. In recording this fact, however, I would have it paced on record that the association once did good service. The task it undertook was to form up the trotting clubs into an organisation separate from that of the ordinary clubs, and one could not but admire the energy and wisdom displayed ia accomplishing the manifold duties which were thus entailed. For one thing, the association gave us the set of rules that are still in use all over the colony. Whatever mistakes were committed subsequently, I must maintain that the association has left its mark on the sport, and made it easy for others to carry on the work. Even its mistakes have their value to us by way of example. We can well afford to speak charitably towards the defunct.

*«* Said the Duke of Portland in a recent speech : "I contend that a good breed of horses can only be maintained by the use of thoroughbred tires, which owe their existence to the fact that racing h*s bten the sport of the people of the British Isles for many years. Without this breed of horses our cavalry would be inadequately mounted, and we should be at the mercy of any enemy who had better hones than ourselves. On the Continent large «tuds with thoroughbred itallions are kept by the Governments of the countries and at the public expense, to keep the supply of horses equal to the demand, and the whole of their best bl«od comae, or has originally come, from this country. . . . It is unlortunately quite true that betting is inseparable from racing, and I regret that it ihould be bo, but this always has been, and always will be, until human nature undergoes a change. The great thing is that race meetings should be carried on ai well and us respectably as possible, that the rules of betting should be as fair and straightforward as can be, and that they should be enforced without fear or favour." v

*** The week's tale of the doings of the New Zealand Cup horses does not shed a great deal of light on the possibilities of the race. Hippomenes is doing sound work and can be got ready in time Brighter new? also comes f torn the track about Skirmisher, and we may pretty well conclude that these horses will represent their stables in the big race. Royal Rose is expected very shortly at Riccarton, and notwithstanding his ha.i-stone penalty he is dittinctly hardening in price. He will run in the name of his owner, the lease by right having expired. Peg»Bus has. arrived. Vogengang's chance seems to be looking up; 'there are some who aver that he will win. Impulse has got to the Riccarton courte.. Lottie is hardening and may be acoounted a sure starter. So also Beadonwell, who promises to tee a short price on the day if he keeps well. Outpost is doiDg nicely, but will have h»rdly enough time to get thoroughly ripe by the day. Magazine's win on Saturday's is accepted as I hope'ul fign, and I may take the risk of saying that he is worth backing at current rate?. Artiileur, on the other hand, does not look so well since his defeat last week. Mabaki's win on Tuesday will cauFe him to be regarded with respect. Casket is doing well and so is Westmere. They say that he ought to have won the Spring Handicap at Hawke's Bay, and would have done so but for Connop's superior riding on North Atlantic. The week's bettiog has been devoid of sensation, the only hues locally booked to any sum* worth referring to being Royal Rose and Impulse. The t olio wing are the current quotations : — NEW ZEALAND CUP.

*«* The Stockton meeting had just concluded when the last mail left Eogl&nd. K\le, who did duty for I'Anson's stable in the Stockton Handicap, whipped round when the flag fell, and took no part in the race. Zamiel (4yrf, 7.5), who was eventually successful from Golden Drop (syrs, 8.5), covered the mile and fiva furlongs in 2min 54£ sec. Enniskillen br< ke down in the race. The six starters for the Wynyard Plate included Bonspiel, who had to put up a 41b penalty for his success at Redcar, but still opened a hot favourite. At the finish, however, 2 to 1 was offered on the field, and he left off with only a slight call of Dunover, who came from Newmarket with a tall reputation. The quickest away was Featherstone, but at the distance he was challenged by Dunover, and in a desperate race between the pair Dunover obtained * short head verdict. The winner.

who is by Donovan out Beatrice, had never run in public before. Class was not well represented in the Great Northern Leger, the moderate Stone Chack being good enough bo win in a canter.

* # * "Asmodens" says that if any reliance can be placed on the Randwick running, Marvel, Jeweller, Pilot Boy, Cremorne, Solanum, Delaware, Launceston, The Captain, iEolas, and First Shot do not appear to possess much chance of distinguishing themselves in the Caulfield Cup. On the other hand, it is equally evident that the race stands an excellent chance of crossing the Murray by the assistance of Brockleigh, Paris, Lady Trenton, Ruenalf, Isaac, and Chesterman ; truly, this is a formidable team, and one which promises to take an immensity of beating, nob only at Caulfield, bub also at Flemington. The figures are greatly in favour of the ha'f dozen horses named, and had Mr Barnard to re-handicap them they would all be placed in very different positions in the list to those they now occupy. The running in the Spr'ftg Stakes does not admit of Paris having any chance with either Brookleigh or Ruenalf, since the former will meet him on precisely the 1 same terms ; while the Utter will encounter the Grandmaster gelding on 221b more advantageous conditions than when he defeated Pans at weight for age. But the Craven Plate running places matters between Brockleigh and Paris in quite a different light, seeing that in that race positions were 'reversed. Striking alinethrough Paris, Ruenalf has abous a stone and a-half the best of the handicap, but as he poisesses a itill greater advantage in the Melbourne Cup, Keys may elect to try and avenge Sir 'William's defeat ia that race three years ago. It is equally uncertain as to which of the two Cups. Isaao will attempt to capture ; he does not possess such a big pull in the weights as does Ruenalf, yet I have no doubt Mr" Barnard would like to clap another stone on him in order to protect his handicap. Then again Chesterman is turned loose at 6.7 ; and literally thrown in as are horses like Ruenalf, Capstan, Theodore, and Isaac, Mr Clark's colt promises to take' all the beating the best treated of his elder opponents are capable of giving him. It Is 12 years since a three-year-old won the Caulfleld Cap, and as Chesterman is an undoubted stayer, it is not urilikely that the Little Jack victory will be repeated, provided the inducement is greater than at Flemington.

*#* Four hundred passengers went by the special train to Kurow last week, and attendance came to nigh upon 1000. There were 41 starters for the eight races and £902 was passed through the totalisator by Mason and Roberts. List jear 49 itarted and £916^ went through the machine. The Maiden provided a fine race. Lady Van ran off, thus resigning the lead to Tommy Atkins, who was eventually third, Rachel winning by a head. She ran second last year in exactly the same time. Dolly broke up in the Trot affcf r leading to tbe last turn, and the steadier Grasshopper II had an easy task at the finish. The Cup was a poor race. Vandyke gave away whatever chance he poseesied by running off ; and Exile had no difficulty in betting, the other fellow. This race is now made a mile and a-quarter. Last season it wai a mile, and years ago it was two miles. With 9.2 Exile finished third a year ago. The Selling Race for district hacks found the outsider of the party winning. He was protested against by Mr Condon, owner of Windror, on the'ground that the trainer was unlicensed, and the fact appears to have been proved, as the stewards inflicted a fine of £1 and went on with the musio. The Otunties Plate, captured last year by Mr Longfellow with Exile, was taken by the same stable on this occasion with Van Buren. Matron fell in the Hack Race, the favourite Supplejack getting home with very little to spare from one of the outsiders. Roseleaf could not carry the weight. Exile's 101b penalty stopped him in the Jockey Club Handicap won by Molly D«rling, and Mr Wise had another easy win in the Consolation.

*V* The special commissioner of the London Sportsman makes a suggestion which deserves consideraticn. It is that the present rule as'to doubtful paternity might be amended with advantage. It would be unsafe to change it wherea, foal is dropped any time witbin a month beyond the proper foaling date to the first horse, though it is easy enough to tell as a rule whether the foal is really one that hat been carried beyond his time. It is unquestionable that mares will occasionally carry a foal for 12 months or thereabouts. Ormonde was within a day or two of the 12 months when he appeared on the scene. Let 12 months be taken, then, as the limit of security ajrainst possible error. It can surely be conceded that where the mare has been mated with two different horses and the foal comes more than 12 months after the service of the first of these horses, it is unquestionably sired by the second, and on these perfectly safe grounds we might reasonably drop %the name of tbe first horse from the pedigree altogether. Thus we should distinguish between the* cases which are really open to doubt *nd those which are nor, and a considerable benefit would result, for as things stand American and colonial breeders, and indeed all who make a study of blood lines, fight shy of doubtful pedigrees, and St. Gatien's blood has been objected to on that account; but under an amended rule such a* is suggested, St. Gatien would appear as by The Rover, Rotherhill beiDg hopelessly out of date in regard to his possible paternity. Prince of Poets affords an extreme illustration of the absurdity of the present rule. His dam Neberna was put to Laureate pretty early in the season and sent home to the Blink Bonny stud, where aftei about two months she proved to be not in foal and she was mated with Prince Rudolph, Mr Miles I'Anson not wishing to miss her altogether, though it was then so late as June. She had acolt foal (Prince of Poets) in July of the following year, and of course this was with absolute certainty a son of Prince Rudolph, but Laureate none the less has to be mentioned. I may add that the leading New Zealand case is that of Quibble, who, though credited to Traducer or. St, George, is generally accepted ai a son of the latter. Strenuous (whose dam w«s served by King of Clubs and St. George) and VeDus Transit '(ascribed to Derby or Sledmere) are also prominent cases in this colony. The lastnamed is granddam of Lottie, now fancied for the New Zealand Cup.

*** Carmody, the Caulfield trainer, being well known in this colony, an extract from a summary of his career, as written by " Sterling "in the Sportsman, will.no doubt prove interesting. M. J. C. was born close to Limerick, and served his time in the employ of Dr Fraser. When about 22 years of age be determined to go to New Zealand, and arrived there in 1876. He almost immediately got an engagement as trainer to Mr Henry Redwood, whom he describes as the most liberal of employers, and a thorough sportsman in every branch. For Mr Redwood he commenced by breaking a lot of two-year-olds. Among these was the celebrated Mata, and such celebrities as Choke*? ore, Pinfire, Chilled Shot, horses by Towton (brother to The Peer and Marchioness), and Dead Shot i

while Waiti and Puriki were among the fllUe*, Grip was another celebrity he broke in. Ha won races with Waiti, Banker, &o. After lewing Mr Redwood, he took Mr P. Butler's horses, m- a J !he ABent»A B ent » L»n»»L »n»» Laertes, Trinket, Tim Whiffler, Hippodamia, and many otherg, won races all over New Zealand. After leaviDg Mr Butler's, Mr Carmody started publio training in Christchurch. and had horses for Cantain Cottos, the Hon. Mr Rodney, and Mr Wrymond, and won a lot of jumping events with Hercules (a very great horse, who unfortunately broke his leg when winning a steeplechase), Comet, Melbourne, and others. He then went up north with Fueileer, who won the Derby'and Wanganui Stakes. Strenuous was unlucky as a two-year-old in running seconds. Then Mr Carmody settled in Auckland. Racing, with the advent of Musket's stock, had a great boom, and* this sire's death was a deoided blow to all New Zealand, but more especially to Auckland. Mr Carmody, however! failed to get hold of a really good Mudket, but won nearly all the principal races with the horses under his charge. Racing having fallen to s very low ebb in Auckland, Mr Carmody sold out and went to Sydney, whence he shifted to Tasmania, and then on to Melbourne, where he trained Glenloth for the' Cup. Toil son of The Gem would have about won the Australian Cup also if he had kept right. His trial, with shoes on and 9.0 up, was two miles in 3min 40seo.

*«* Mr Studholme has bought Cajolery, and I presume that the handsome son of Apremont and Flattery has practically passed oat of active service on the turf. He first sported silk in the BrockenhuKt Stakes, for which, though starting first' favourite, he finished unplaced behind Morpheus. No better luck followed him In the Welcome, but the Sailing Race for two-year-olds at the same meeting gave him a rare opportunity, and he easily triumphed over three of the worst of his age that we had racing in the south. Little May gave him over a stone in the O J.C. Nursery; Tassy and Lebel beat him at Dunedin in the spring ; and he was only third in the Middle Park Plate won by Florrie ; but these gallops had brought him on, and he ran a fine race in the Champagne at Dunedio, winning easily from the penalised Florrie, though she had her reveDge later on in the season when they met in the C.J.C. Champagne. As a three-year-old Cajolery won the Timaru Guinea*, beating Conjurer, Huguenot, and the hero of the last Hunt Club meeting, Victim ; but nothing more fell to bis 1 share during the socsoa save a -couple of small stakes at outside meetings. He began to win over sticks as a four-year-old, his initial success in thia department being in the Hurdle Race for maidens at National fixture. This was followed up by hit capturing the Spring Handicap at Plumpton Park, for which Außevoir, weighted at 6.9, was unplaced—what a charge in form this horse has shown !— and later en he placed to his credit the Welter at Dunt-din Spring, the Hororata Cup, and the Post Stakes at the C J,C meeting. Last season Cajolery really paid his way, for he took the Lffdies' Purie and a hurdle race at the Canterbury Spring meeting, and secured a hurdle race at each of the principal fixtures in Dunedin,' carrying 11.12 in the last of these and dishing Clarence at level weights. If he never races again we thall remember the son of Flattery as a good horse, but I have an idea that owing to one difficulty or another he has never showed his best form. He looks a racehorse, and until quite, recently I have been expecting to see him ripen into a second Canafd. The sale out of Mr Lunn's stable is, however, ominous of retirement. This trainer has had him from the firat, and would not be likely to part with a horse of that itamp if there was fair promise of improvement.

* # * Mr Francis Lawley. a regular contributor on racing matters to Baily's Magazine, has been asking hirmelf the question, "Are racehones overtrained P " On reasoning the matter out Mr Lawley has come to tbe conclusion that he is well warranted in asserting that "few persons of long experience upon the turf will deny that of the two extremes to which race* horses in training are exposed — either too much or too little work— tbe former is by far tbe graver danger." Mr Lawley's knowledge of racing extends over a great many years. He can remember the time when long, sweating gxllops were considered indispensable to getting a horse fit for a severs race. Priam, who won the Derby in 1830, and is believed by those who can still remember him to have been the best horse they ever saw, " was forced by his inexorable trainer, William Chifney, to take three sweating gallops a week, each of them over six miles or more, when the horse was four or five years old " In this case it cannot be said that the severe treatment to which he was subjected affected the horse's racing prospect*, as Priam won (he cups of bis day. Mr Luwley, however, explains this by assuming that Priam was a horse with an iron constitution. . Discus.'ing the proposition here raised, tbe Australasian says it is just as easy to find examples in Australia of horses winning severe races after an interruption in their preparation had seemingly disposed of their chance. Zulu, who won the Melbourne Cup, is one instance, and The Czar, who ran second, was in much the same plight. Bravo was so bad 10 days before the race that 1000 to 1 was actually laid against; him, but once his trainer patchei his foot up the real ' trouble was gone, and the horse won, despite his being minus a few gallop* he would have done but for an accident putting him on tbe shtlf for some days. Carnage was idle foe some time during a critical part of his Derby preparation, yet he won his race, and showed better form all through that meeting than he did in Sydney when supposed to b8 much fitter. Le Grand's victory in the Champion. Race afforded clear proof that a, horse may stay a journey without having been trained over the distance He was worked over short courses with a view to the Newmarket Handicap, and the first long gallop he did was in the Austra'ian Cup, yet a week after running second to Malua in a sprint he stayed to the end of one of the truest-run three-mils races have had. We do not believe half the •to'ies we hear about races "being left on th» irack," and for a Melbourne Cup we would rather back a horse that has done his work regularly than, one that has not. But the h'story of the turf discover* many cases which can be quoted ia support of Mr Lawley's assertion that overtraining racehorses is by no means an uncommon thing.

*** Mr J. G. Wilson is reported by theReferee to have made the following statement at a reecnt conference of racing men in Wanganui : " The Otago delegates to the last racing conference had said that perhaps Otago would be able -to reduce its meetings by more than the number required by the conference, in which case perhaps one day more would be . allowed to the Wanganui district." It was resolved that if that were the case the matter of deciding which club should have the meeting be left with the metropolitan club ; but it is to be doubted very much whether our northern friends will secure an extra meeting in th»t way. On first reading the quoted remark it seemed to me highly probable th&t Mr Wilson bad been - misunderstood— that he meant something emit*

different to wbet he was set clown as saying. On inqniring into the matter, however, I learn that th's 'impression* *was wrong. Strange as it may t eem, it is a fact tbat while tbe conference **vas on something was said by an Otsgo delegate to the effect that Otago might be able to save a d«y more than was required when the reductions ** er«? made. I msder -tand, however, that tbis observation, which was made in the course of an informal conversation, met with a prompt challenge from another Otago delegate •who was present. It is therefore scarcely correct, if I am rightly informed, to father the proposal on to tbe Otago delegates In any case it came from ot>ly one of the three, and possibly be was chaffing ; and, woreover, the provincial district would not sanction aDy such Arrangement. Of that I feef sure. There would be a pretty " how-dye-do" if a proposition to surrender even half a d»y were seriously made at a time when many of our clubs are wondering whether they can escape extinction.

**• With the close of tbe present season will - come the retirement from active participation in turf matter* of two veteran Bogli«h trainers —Matthew Da* son and Old Tom Jeunings, -to _■ wit. It is a peculiar coincidence, says a Home writer, that these two worthy men, who both began to achieve fame i<> the same year, should also determine upon their well-earned retirement in -the same year. Both have been engaged in the scientific art of training racehorses for exactly 54 yetrs, and we doubt if any two men ever knew their professions better. Yet tbJir method* of gett-ng a gee-gee fit a-e as dissimilar as possible. Mat bel eves in the sow but su r e process, and enjoys the reputation of having been able to bring hones to tbe * post fit to run for a kingdom, which most folks, in their cleverness, regarded as crocks. Melton's bowed sinew caused that horse to be dubbed a crock, and it wa« generally regarded as being "all up" witb him. Mat Dawson's patience and skill, however, enabled Melton to win a Derby and St. Leger, and, us a four-year-old, the Livt-rpool Autumn Cup with 9.3 on his back.notwithstand ngthe infirmity. Now a, horse like Mellon would not have suited " Old Tom." No fear. A horse for his process had to be absolutely sound in wind and limb, and able to stand a rare rattling a'ong, and the most vigorous training. If he could'nc, Tom wouldn't try to get him fit. But once let a horse pass through his ordeal, and he cou'd be depended upon to get any course in the world. Tom Jennings as a long-disbanca trainer never had an equ*l. The los 6to the tarf of two such clever and worthy trainers is one which will not easily b* repaired, and where their successors «re to come from we cannot prophecy.

*«* Paralysis of the brain was Ihe cause of Mr Martin Longhlin's death at Ballarat on the 23rd nit. He was 61 ye«rs old. He landed in Victoria over 40 years ago, and made his first , rise at the diggings. It was in l&69athit he became a racehorse owner, and tbe first win he , ever had was with Bloeslan, who placed t« his j credit a couple of sfcuep'f-chaoes at the Ballarat j Hunt Club xaocs. This horse then had ago at the steeplechase on the Fletpington course, and , 'he. got bome, beating Reindeer, the favourite, , very easily. Another horse owned by Mr Lough'liniiu Nonsense, with whom he won theKyne- . ■ ion Steeplechase; and after him Partner, sub- . sequently christened- Lone Hand, joined the , stable and earned a. lot of money, thanks largely to Tom Corrigan's riding. Lord Harry won both jumping and flat races, the Cups it; Gteelong and Hobart being among hte vict Ties ; and, as already related in tt^se co'umns, tbe successes of Left Bower, Sir Peter. Sheet Anchor, Wymlet, Game, and Oakleigh were all profitable ?>roperty to the stable. Mr Loughlin was ndeed, as the Australasian observes, a man who tnade money at racing When Sheet Anchor won the Melbourne Cop be landed £21,009 outside the stake. This was his best win, bat he must have won thousand* by the successes of his erofls-CGuatrr horses, and we are probably safe in s»ying that hi* connection with the turf wai worth at least £50,000 to him. Mr Loughlin was a liberal man as far as BaUarat was opDcarned. Every year he contributed a ftir- - sized cheque to the various charitable institutions. Just before tbe bank »mash Mi- Loughlin booked for England with the object of Boeing his brother Michael, but when the crash came he forfeited his passage and determined to stay at home and see to hu business. Un<?er the cu> ennutances his brother resolved to come and see * him, and was with Mr Lough' in when he died.

*** Fine weather prevailed for, the meeting on Saturday of the Plumptoa Park Racing and Trotting Club, for whioh Mr CresiweU acted as handicapper and Mr Piper as starter. The feature of the meeting was the form of Ehefcnan's stable in collaring the first, second, and third events on the programme, D#rrett £whb still can go to scale at 8.0) being the 3ockey in each case. Strathbrasn, the goodlooki> g but so far disappointing ton of Apremont and Engagement, was made a hot f avouute for the Maiden Plute, Bowshot being the only other one backed with any spirit. The latter was, however, in difficulties at fire furlongs, and Mr CampVoU's colt won very easily from the moderates that continued tbe struggle. The same owner also landed the Spring Handicap, this stake going to him with the aid of Magazine, likewise from the Musket mare Engagement, and a colt that is improving so very fast as to make bettiog men regard hi* chances for the Cup with increased favour. He certainly beat Goodwood very eacily in the race referred to. Alc?stis r the third winner led out by Sheenan, was perhaps somewhat lucky in the Kindergarten Stakes, in that the one from which most danger was feared— Cannon Ball — bucked up and gob rid of his rider at ihe starting post. Still, Alcestis won so very easily that it it bard to see how Cannon Ball could have beaten her. The Cup colt Artilleur had ago in the Flying, but with 8 0 up was- sever dangerou*. Lady Lear and Goodwood had the raoe pretty well to thtmselve?, the latter atßertiug himself in time to maVe sure of the resnlt. The sum of £1438 was passed through the totalieator during the day.
