NOTES BY SIR MODRED. Wellington R.C. meeting will be concluded to-day. Dunedin Cup meeting handicaps are due on Monday. Dargaville Racing Club’s Annual meeting concludes to-day. Park Trotting Club Summer meeting opens on Thursday. A.J.C. Anniversary meeting opens at Rindwick this afternoon. The Hobart Cup (one mile and a half) will be run on January 28. The Forbury Park T.C.’s Summer fixture concludes next Saturday. Anniversary Handicap, £2OOO (IJm.) run at Randwick on Monday. In future J. J. Kennerley will train the speedy pacer Waitaid Girl. Final payments for the Dunedin Cup are due on Friday, February 6. For the first time for years G. S. Smith will not have a horse at Forbury. Deucalion and Mantua may be hard to defeat at Trentham to-day. The one-time brilliant trotter Red Heather has been retired from the track. The two-year-old, Star Stranger, is a brother to Lucinette, by Martian. Some local backers think Listening Post returned a “small” price on Thursday The Tasmanian reinsman, P. Gregg, was successful at Wellington T.C. meeting. Master Sandstone is reported well and may win for Mr Stone in the near future. Tommy Dodd’s half-brother, Victory Bond, is a good and improving two-year-old racer. Surveyor was ninth in order of selection when he ran away with the Wellington Cup race. Sanctuary, by Panmure—Cease Fire, ran well on the opening day of the Wellington R.C. gathering. Author Dillon (4.21 4-5) has been officially declared the Australasian two-mile racing record holder. Acceptances for the Tapanui Racing Club’s Annual fixture are due on Wednesday of next week at 8 p.m. The Takapuna Jockey Club’s Summer meeting will take place on Thursday and Saturday of the incoming week. Owners - f hack racers will race at Pine Bush on Wednesday next, with the Tokanui —Fortrose meeting following on Friday. Local light harness mentor. A. McLellan, will leave for Dunedin with his small string on Tuesday next for Forbury Park. At the Foxton R.C. meeting on Wednesday J. Olsen, rider of Vuelta, was suspended for a month for crossing in the running. Gauntlet, winner of the Trial Plate at Trentham on Thursday, has the reputation of being a galloper much above the average. The Australian pacer, Billy Sea, reported to be decidedly useful, is to join the string of the clever Christchurch driver, A. Hendricksen. Canterbun' ligh f harness trainer B. Jarden will race Jack Potts, Prince Derby, Dalmeny and Direct Todd at the Forbury Park meeting. The Wellington Racing Club Handicap (one mile and three furlongs) is the longest and most important event won by local galloper Listening Post. It is stated that Mr W. G. .Stead is going to take a team of horses to Melbourne this season for disposal. The Hawke's Bay breeder previously patronised Sydney. The time for the Wellington Cup (2min 34secs', on a good track, too, was the slowest since 1920, when Kilmoon and Oratress ran a dead heat in heavy going. In the Telegraph Handicap at Trentham on Tuesday last the Invercargill mare, Geranial, was troublesome at the post, and eventually got away in an indifferent manner. Christchurch light harness trainer, N. C. Price, has a busy time ahead of him with no less than eleven green two and three-year-old pacers to handle. One is a two-year-old by Nelson Bingen—Cameos (dam of Onyx). When Geranial failed to catch the eye in the real race for the Telegraph Handicap at Trentham, she was the outsider of the field (thirteenth selection) and was ridden by the Dunedin lightweight, A. Didham. Local mentor, J. Pankhurst, now keeps Yulun in regular work. She is a betterlooking filly than the general run of Solferino s female descendants, but her galloping ability remains to be proved on race day. The Scottish reinsman, D. Nelson, has returned to Christchurch from Great Britain. While in Scotland he participated in the light harness game, and purchased several horses. One of his purchases, the American sire, Game of Chance (2.34) is to be brought out to New Zealand. Cross-country horseman A. McMullan is still located in Invercargill and his visits to the S.R.C. tracks to ride Frenchman in work may lead to the son of Danube racing over the battens at the Dunedin Jockey Club’s Autumn fixture. One of the hack sprinters raced in Southland that is invariably well taken care of by handicappers is the little mare Sunlit. She has speed to burn over very short distances, but, during a lengthy career, she has not won enough to keep her in oats for more than a few weeks at a time. To many patrons of the second day of the Forbury Park Trotting Club’s Summer meeting on Saturday next the feature of the afternoon’s sport will be the contest for the New Zealand Trotting Stakes (harness), £6OO (winner £395 and Gore Memorial Cup valued £25), for three-year-old unhoppled trotters (one mile and a half). As far as can be ascertained ten juveniles stand their ground, but the situation is claimed to be dominated by the gelding Kawhaki, owned by Mr V. P. Casey (Auckland) and trained by A. G. Wilson, New Brighton. Kawhaki is proclaimed by hundreds of experienced people who have seen him at work to be “the best three-year-old trotter seen in this country,” but there is a fly in the ointment. The well-bred son of Nelson Bingen (imp.)—Runaway, by Rothschild—Vanquish, by Vancleve—Victress, is declared to be unsound and this may to his undoing on the day or previously. His dam comes of a brilliant family of light harness performers and it will be an equine tragedy if her acknowledged brilliant son fails to step soundly next week. Mr Casey’s gelding is not the only smart youngster in the field, as Mr J. Deyell, of Christchurch, has a proved gelding by Nelson Bingen—Winiata engaged and there are others. Inaugurated in 1 1917, the N.Z. Trotting Stakes race has been the means of introducing some very smart unhoppled horses to the race tracks of Maoriland, while it has grown in importance year by year and in every way fulfilled the anticipations of the gentlemen

who caused the Forbury Park T.C. to establish it as one of the classic events of the light harness world, and the only race of the kind in New Zealand for three-year-old trotters. The yearling filly purchased at the Elderslie Stud sale of Friday last by Mr W. Baird has arrived in Invercargill and has been greatly admired—quite a number of people woke up to her existence last week when it was too late and the auctioneer’s hammer had fallen. Purchased at 170gns this brown filly is a daughter of Paper Money (imp.) from Killala, by Kilbroney (imp.) —Arai-te-Uru, by Birkenhead (imp.)— Fair Nell, by Apremont (imp.) —Idalia (imp.) and can claim descent on her dam's side from many of the best horses ever raced in New Zealand or Australia, while several of her male relatives were sent to America from Maoriland in the far off days and became successful sires in the United States, viz., Sir Modred, Cheviot and Jdalium. Idalia produced Sir Modred, Cheviot, Idalium, Betrayer, Sir Lancelot, Ravenswing and Fair Nell, all winners, and the last-named, from whom Mr Baird’s filly is directly descended, herself produced Saracen, Loyalty and Bonnie Scotland, whose names are writ largely in the histories of the New Zealand and Australian turf. Should she never race—a misfortune, it is to be hoped, that will not be added to her owner’s run of ‘‘outs”—the daughter of Paper Money would be a very valuable stud proposition. It is reported that the Winton mentor, A. Gerrard, has a promising novice in his stable, 3 descendant of the Auckland Cup wanner, Balboa, who also sired Baldowa. The local mare Kyleboa has been working regularly on the S.R.C. tracks since her successful trip to the goldfields, when she accounted for three races. She pulled up well after her racing experiences, but an extended train journey on the homeward way caused her to lighten up. While success has crowned his efforts to secure stakes at Trentham with representatives of his stable all has not gone so well for F. W. Ellis at his home establishment, as four or five of his charges have contracted severe colds, an epidemic of this nature having swept over the South Island during the past few weeks. One of the victims was Bran Pie, but the Buckwheat filly is now making a good recovery from her ailment. Following on her return home after winning the Wrey’s Bush Welter Handicap at the Wairio meeting Andante was given an opportunity to recuperate in a paddock aiached to her training quarters with disasterous results. In a playful attempt to kick at a horse in an adjoining enclosure the Clarenceaux mare got her leg over a barb wire and, in her struggles, sawed her flesh on the entangled limb to the bone. When discovered and released veterinary aid was immediately secured and everything •possible done to prevent serious consequences. For some days the Messrs Grieve Bros.’ mare was in a very bad way and there was always a danger of fatal consequences, but she is now progressing favourably, although it has yet to be determined as to whether she will race again. The mishap was a most unfortunate one from a racing point of view, as F. W. Ellis had his pupil in the pink of form at the time. Surveyor, the Wellington Cup winner, was a champion two-year-old (writes “The Watcher” in the Dominion), and always recognised as a high-class racehorse. Some three years ago, when generally considered down and out as a racing proposition, he was sold by his owner-breeder (Mr G. L. Stead) to his present owner, Mr John Paterson. of Auckland, for a modest 110 guineas, and was handed over to W. H. Patterson to train. Under this trainer’s care he began to develop all his old form, and since being in his hands has proved himself as good as ever he was. Last October twelve months he won the Champion Plate at the Wellington spring meeting, beating Razzle Dazzle and yesterday he won again, against Gold Light, , so that Mr W. T. Hazlett will have cause ' to remember Surveyor, who has beaten ■ him for two handsome prizes. It is also a coincidence that on that particular occasion he was accompanied by his stable- I mate Pelham, who won on the same day, a , performance that was repeated yesterday. ; Since being purchased by Mr Patereon the i son. of Nassau —Pedometer has won up- i wards of £5OOO in stakes, and another re- i markable feature of this performance is I that each season since his sale he has done , stud duties. It was his first win over the distance. There is a chance that Songbird will be racing again in the Autumn, round about Easter time, as he is being tried out in training under special shoeing conditions, as recommended by a veterinary adviser. Failing this treatment proving effective, the good son of imported parents may be treated to an application of the firing instrument or relegated to the stud altogether. As the Trial Plate at Tapanui R.C. meeting is to be contested under weight-for-age conditions over six furlongs, advantage may be taken of the opportunity to give the two-year-old gelding by Kilbroney—Mayhap, trained in J. A. Rowland’s stable, a run in public. The youngster, who will be known in the race-books as Haphazard, has not been thoroughly tested in private as yet, but he has been in easy work for some time past. It is not so long ago since more than one writer in the North wrote learnedly to ' the effect that successful racehorses could i not be reared in Southland, with the result that quite a number of officials of racing clubs in the home province accepted this view unconditionally and scorned all proposals to establish or continue events designed to encourage studmasters in the home province. At the present juncture, the writer would like to remind or inform the “wise birds” referred to that Gold Light, Listening Post and Baldowa were reared in Southland, while a similar remark applies to recent winners such as Red Fray, Set Sail, Tommy Dodd, Kyleboa, Blue Dragoon, Apache, Navy Cut, Francaise, and the hurdler Frenchman. Had it not been for the fallacious idea referred to there might have been a number of other horses of similar class to those mentioned racing here this season as home products and reared on the premises. Want of space prevents this subject being more fully discussed at. present, but the men who off-handedly declared against encouraging the breeding and rearing of racing material in Southland are requested to look into the history of the light harness game, where they will find New Zealand Trotting Cup, Auckland Trotting Cup, and a number of pacing classic winners were born and reared in the home province. The race for the Summer Handicap, £BOO (one mile) at Trentham to-day should arouse a considerable amount of interest in this district, not alone because of the prospective meeting of three smart gallopers, in Suggestion (9.0), Listening Post (8.13) and Quest (8.2), but also because they will have to contend with promising lightweights such as Pelham (7.13) and Mantua (7.2). Pelham is in the run of a brilliant winning streak at present, while Mantua is quite capable of running down eight furlongs in Imin 40sec or better in good company, and this is worth remembering when the little daughter of Solferino is displaying her best form, as she appears to be doing at Trentham. At the same time, the # whole field, even that proved galloper Suggestion, will know they have been in the thick of the fight when their connections can say that any of them left Listening Post to watch them move first past the judge perched up aloft in the grandstand. His stern race in the Wairio Cup does not appear to have adversely affected Cupidon, as the Martian gelding is pursuing the even tenor of his way and giving his trainer, R. McKay, no cause for uneasiness, i If the ex-Canterbury gelding should con- j

I tinue to progress as he has been doing i during the past month, he will get his own and other names on the winning lists during the Autumn campaign. A great deal of the credit attached to Listening Post’s success at the Wellington R.C. Summer meeting must go down to his persevering mentor, F. W. Ellis. The gelding’s owner was not inclined to tackle the trip to Trentham under the weights allotted his representative for the opening day of the gathering, but Ellis prevailed upon him to undertake the venture. The Fast road trainer pointed out that the son of Solferino was getting up in years, and was probably in better condition than at any previous stage of his turf career, hence an opportunity should not be lost of racing him when it was possible, irrespective of the class of his possible rivals. The win of Listening Post at the Town Hall of Maoriland would give his mentor a great deal of satisfaction from a standpoint quite apart from monetary considerations, as it was at Trentham that F. W. Ellis commenced his career as a licensed trainer. He had not occupied the position of a private trainer for a sufficient period to give him a fair chance of testing his ability when a change was decided upon, with the result that he came to Southland to eventually follow his newly-adopted profession as a public trainer, to Wellington’s loss and Southland’s gain, as a number of southern owners can truthfully testify. The acceptance lists for the concluding day’s racing at Trentham this afternoon disclose the fact that there is still a chance of seeing the Wairarapa two-year-old, Licinius tried out, as he figures in the Hopeful Stakes. Some of the best of the youngsters are absentees from the field, but Star Stranger (Martian—Lady Lucy) and Shirley may prove equal to extending the juvenile from the country.
