WELLINGTON NOTES.

(From Oub Own Correspondent.) g February 8. H. Telford, the Trentham trainer, leaves for Dunedin on Tuesday to see Probation and Devotion race there. Of the local horses engaged at the Dunedin meeting Devotion is the most likely to score. She is well in the Wanganui Cup with 7.9, but will not be there. Her next appearance after Wingatui will be at the Wairarapa, of which club her owner is president. Trentham stables are well represented at the Neison meeting next month. Mascot end Exclusive, members of J. .W. Lowe'; team, are engaged. This will be the first time that the colours of Messrs Riddiford Bros, will be carried .at the Richmond course. The Wairarapa-owned horses Sardinia and Try Again have gone into J. W. Scott's stable at Trentham. Menelaus will probably fulfil his engagement in the Wanganui Cup, in which he 13 top weight with Sasanof. Mr Wilfred Stead was in town to-day.. Pie informed me that he could not s<iy whether Sasanof would run until he had consulted his trainer. J. Ayres, the Trenthnm trainer, has been indisposed recently, but is getting all right again. Chortle will probably be raced at the Egmont meeting before' returning home.
