SILKWORM is a bright bay with black points, and stands about 15.3 hands high. He is a four-year-old, and is, therefore, not worn by excessive training. As a racehorse, SILKWORM was the most brilliant two-year-old of the New Zealand 1903-4 season, with the exception of stable companions. He was started on nine occasions, and won six roces, in the other three attempts finishing in second place to stable mates (in thp ownership of Mr G. Gr. Stead). The races won by SILKWORM were : Hastings Stakes, of 250sovs ; Nursery Handicap, C.J.C. meeting, of 250sovs ; Great Northern Foal Stakes, Auckland, 500sovs ; Midsummer Handicap, Auckland, 200sovs ; Wellesley Stakes, Wellington, 400sovs ; Wellington Stakes, Wellington, 400sov«.
