The beach has been yery popular with trainers lately, practically all the horses in training have been exercised there, and a lot of useful pace work done. With a few fine days. operations at the Park soon should be in full swing again in view of Avondale engagements. Ruinette has been allotted 7.11 in the Henderson Handicap, being placed on the same mark as Captain Bruce and Valise. Hunting Star figures in the Kingsland Hurdles with 9.12. The black gelding has had a couple of races and can now be said to be a fairly proficient jumper. Small Boy is in on the minimum in the Avondale Chp and with H. Wiggins in the saddle will be one of the favourites. Golden Blonde has been allotted 7.2 in the Flying Handicap. Ruinette has a double engagement on the first day, being also in the Swanson Handicap with 7.11. * * * * Whakao (Mimetic-Birdcall), who failed to get on the winning list in the season just, closed, is to be given i chance to make good this season. . - -. . *.*,.«,*.»..... ~ . •.
