In this rao3 he was meeting- St. De.nis on c\«n 'terms, and giving away El<-> to Tug«-h and! 161b to Blazer. At the Forlvry, over —\o\k furlongs, St. Denis was a~l:od to give ArdnarfiF 10 ib, and Blawr was giving him 61b, so that, on top of excellent form, he v. ts asked to me-et them on fairly liberal allowances in being put down to meet Blazer afe 221b and St. Denis at 10ib better terms than the trio met on the la«t day gi the Invrfrcargill meeting. St. Denis looked a uifc light at Inv-rcirgill, and should hs freshen up a bit in the interim ho may be -expected! to run a good race ; but at prc=ent B'azer looks the most likely one to supply the winner. In the F'ying Handicap, Flower o' Chitha should bo hard .o oedt, - de~piie the fac^ that she re«?ds clcse to St. Denis and Goldspur in tho L?.ndicap=. She is a. greatly improved marc. She should about win, and mojt trouble mey ccmo from Goldspur. Scottish ilmsrre-l should score in th& Hurdles. "Witch Winnie aud Turgeincff are two in the Trial Handicap who should run wei 1 , r.nd the for-iier may supply the winner. Aldin^a, if she runs up to track form, should b'_ able- to account for zbe Hack Handicap. Trentbridge and Kremlin should provo a dangerous p.ur in th/2> Welter, and! Little Frank reads to have a chance in the Trot. A final selection a1?a 1 ? to probable winners will appear on tho morning cf the races.
