SPORTING

NOTES BY SIR MODRED.

The Ashburton Trotting Club’s Winter meeting will form the racing attraction tomorrow.

The New Zealand Sapling Stakes, two-year-olds. (one mile and a-half) will create keen interest.

A record number of horses arc now sheltered in the training stables at Dunedin J.C. headquarters.

One Wingatui trainer claims IS pupils, another 16, and everyone appears to have the story “boxes full.”

Delightful, who won the Harewood Handicap at Addington this week, is by the Southland sire, Happy Voyage. '

One of the most-deserved successes of the racing of the past few days was the win of Kawini at Ellerslie fixture.

Overdrawn may do well in I'. P. Claridge’s Riccarton stable, as quite a number of horses have done so there.

Brightling and Apache both improved as hurdlers at Wingatui and they may win good jumping events presently.

It is said that a full official explanation of the impounding of the pacer Imperial Thorpe will be made in the near future.

I’iuthair was given two races at the Otaki-Maori R.C. meeting and although not long up she displayed encouraging form for spring racing.

Luckv Light was anything but lucky at the D.J.C. Winter fixture and a very little assistance from Dame fortune would have meant a win.

Magna Charta. who won over the battens at Wingatui on Wednesday, was cut out for a hurdler and may become a very useful performer.

Entries for a number of Avondale, Wanganui and Hawke’s Bay Jockey Chib classic events of next season tire due this (Friday I evening at various times.

A Sydney message states that the A.J.C. inquiry at Randwick into the form of Prince Arim has concluded and no action will be taken.

One of Fabriano's limbs was giving serious trouble prior to the gelding winning the Dunedin Steeplechase on Wednesday and the leg is likely to give P. T. Hogan a considerable amount of further concern.

The three-year-old colt, First Raid, who followed Caterpillar home in the Empire Handicap at Wingatui on Wednesday, will probably develop into a useful racehorse, as he can gallop fast and stay on well. He was got by Night Raid from Mademoiselle Ixe and is,' therefore, bred to race well over short or lengthy distances.

The taxation paid by the Dunedin J.C. in connection with the recent Winter meeting was as follows: Totalisator tax £2012 15/3; dividend tax £3,623 10/-; stakes tax £306 5/-; amusement tax £226 18/2. —Total, £6,169 8/5.

Although he has been extensively nominated for important jumping events in Victoria in the near future, Wharncliffe is unlikely to go across to Australia this season, as he was lame after racing at Wingatui this week.

A delayed British official wireless message dated June 5, advises that Mr Barnett, owner of the Epsom Derby winner, Trigo, is an Irish merchant. His horse was ridden by an apprentice jockey called Marshall, and trained by Richard Dawson, of Whatcombe, who also trained the winner of this season’s Liverpool Grand National Steeplechase.

A country correspondent, who wished to know the result, of the Newcastle Handicap (N.S.W.) on May 18, is informed that the event was won by Casque d Or (M. McCartenl 1; Lord Eudorus, 2; Roiwola 3. Fourteen others started.

The gate receipts at the Dunedin J.C. meeting on Monday last amounted to £1530, including nearly £l5O for ladies’ tickets. The receipts from admission money on the holiday were £226 better than ’those of the previous year. Admission money’ on the other two days of the fixture also displayed an increase.

The Trentbam trainer, H. B. Lorigan is due to leave Wellington to-day for Australia is charge of Oratrix, Concentrate, Royal Duke, Cinmbue, Oral, and the rising two-year-old colt by Chief Ruler — Martianette, by Martian—Equitas.

It is on the cards that. Silver Paper will be a visitor to Melbourne, as he has been engaged in the Toorak Handicap (one mile) an event decided on the opening occasion of the Caulfield Cup meeting and run on the same, day as the Caulfield Guineas—the Caulfield Cup comes up for decision on the third day of the gathering.

The following is ' a bit. of the winning owners at the Dunedin Jockey Club’s Winter meeting:—P. T. Hogan, £705; J. H. Prosser, £355; Mrs. McCubbin, £320; A. G. Macdonald, £315; G. G. Holmes, £295; C. Gieseler £295; J. B. Pearson, £2SO; R. McKav, £280; W. T. Hazlett, £257 10s; E. Hay, £250; W. Swale, £235; P. Delargey, £220; W. Gardiner, £215; 11. Dampier Crossley, £200; W. A. Dunstan, £200; W. F. Parkinson, £190; 11. Brooker. £170; Edie and Mitchell, £165; J. A. Beale, £140; J. Carter, £100; P. F. Thorpy,_£92 10s; F. R. Pierce, £75; G. Banks, £75; L C. Hazlett, £7O; J. Rutfledge, £65; N. G.

Lindsay, £25; Dr. J. E. Rogers, £22 10s; E. Cuthbertson, £22 10s; Sir George Clifford, £l5; A. Morton, £l5; 11. T. Smith, £l5; L. Kelchcr, £l5; D. M. Tweedie, £10; J. C. Cormick, £10; T. Crozier, £10; total, £6,125.

Night. March is in work again at Riccarton and is reported to be looking well. It is quite likely that he will be found racing in Australia in the spring, as he has been engaged in leading events in Sydney and Melbourne. His Melbourne engagements include entries for the Toorak Handicap, Caulfield Cup, Williamstown Cup, Moonee Valley Cup and the Melbourne Cup. His first ventures on the Australian turf, however, will probably be made in Sydney.

F. D. Jones has Limerick Paquito doing useful tasks at Riccarton, while Arikiwal is striding along in strong work. He is quite sound at present, and if he continues to train on satisfactorily he may accompany the other pair to Australia. It looks as if Jones proposes to extend this year’s trip to Melbourne, as Paquito and Arikiwai have been nominated for the Toorak Handicap and the Caulfield Cup.

The Horse Lovers' Dinner, given for “all followers of fine horses,” was held at Boston on April 23rd, there being over 700 people present, and the reports in the various daily papers made it quite evident that in Boston, baseball, prize-fights, and other sports do not claim all the attention of sportsmen. “A feature of the opening tableau,” says an exchange, “was the stage setting of an old-time blacksmith’s shop with the smith at his forge. A well-trained dapple-grey mare did her part by holding two flags in her mouth, bowing a welcome to the diners, while the band played the Anvil Chorus.” The gathering was not altogether confined to light harness folk,' for during the evening leading authorities expounded the virtues of hunters, polo ponies, harness horses, and the thoroughbred. Trotting horse affairs were dealt with by Will Rogers, described. a$ the Comedian Extraordinary of

the World, but his views on the light harness sport were not of a comic nature and the following story, says a writer in the “Horse Review,” seemed to convey a pretty good moral, a sound piece of advice or broad hint that we may well profit by., “I was at Lexington, Kentucky,” he said, “one time with my show and had a chance to go out and see the ‘Trots’ as them Kentuckians call the trotting and pacing races. A whole bunch of horses came out to race, and scored, and scored, back and forth, back and forth, until it rained. Then they postponed the races till the next, day. And the next day they came out again and scored some more before they raced. And I Wondered why the dickens the harness horse folks don't go out the day before they’re going to race, do their scoring, and get it out of their system, and then when they do come out, just go on and race like they ought to?”

THE EPSOM DERBY.

RACE IN PELTING RAIN.

AN OUTSIDER SUCCESSFUL.

TRIGO CAUSES A SURPRISE.

(United Press Assn.—By Telegraph—Copyright.)

London, June 5. The Derby run at Epsom to-day resulted :—

DERBY STAKES of £lOO .each, with £3,000 added. For three-year-old entire colts and fillies foaled in 1926. Colts 9.0 and fillies 8.9. Breeder of winner to receive £5OO. Owner of second horse £4OO and owner of third horse £2OO. About one mile and a half. W. Bennett's b c Trigo, by Blandford

—Athasi, 9.0 (Marshall) 1 Lord Woolavington’s eh c Walter Gay, bv Captain Cuttie —William's Pride, 9.0 (F. Fox) 2 S. Tattersall’s hr c Brienz, by Blush —Blue Lake, 9.0 (IL Jones) .. 3 Twenty-six started.

The race was run in pelting rain. Kopi got away badly. Hunter’s Moon was first to break the line, followed by Irigo, Gay Day, Reedsniouth and En Garde, and led up the hill. Hunter’s Moon and Le Voteur were ahead at the mile post. Trigo then moved up finely and, with Hunter’s Moon, rounded Tattenham Corner ahead of the field, after which Trigo, going strongly, appeared to have the race won. Walter Gay challenged vigorously in the straight, but was unable to catch the leader, who won by a length and a half, with two lengths separating Walter Gay and Brienz. Hunter’s Moon was fourth.

Kopi fell at Tattenham Corner and fin ished riderless.

A RECORD CROWD PRESENT.

WINNER BRED IN IRELAND.

(Rec. 5.5 p.m.) London, June 5. Climatically it was miserable for the Derby, yet a record-breaking crowd, estimated at half a million, witnessed the race.

The winning jockey, Marshall, is the twenty-first apprentice to win the Derby. Trigo, the winner, was bred in Ireland by Mr Barnett, his owner.

FAST CABLE TRANSMISSION

(Per United Press Association.)

Wellington, June 6.

The result of the Derby, transmitted by the Eastern Extension Company, reached Egypt, South Africa, India and Straits Settlements in five seconds; South America in eight; Australia in twenty and New Zealand in twenty-five, seconds. This is a slight improvement on the previous best.

NAPIER PARK CLUB. WEIGHTS FOR WINTER MEETING. (Per United Press Association.) Wellington, June 6. Following are the handicaps for the Napier Park Winter meeting:— MOTEO HACK HURDLES, £l5O. One and a-half miles.

A TROTTING PROSECUTION.

POLICE COURT PROCEEDINGS.

PACER IMPERIAL THORPE CONCERNED.

(Per United Press, Association.) Christchurch, June 6.

Carnuel Bates (labourer), and a horse trainer of Orari, Leslie Holland, appeared before the Magistrate this morning charged that on June 3, at Christchurch, with intent to defraud they attempted to obtain from the Canterbury Trotting Club £l5O by means of falsely representing that the trotting horse nominated as Imperial Thorpe was not identical with the trotting

horse Bruce. They were remanded till June 13. Bail was allowed in the sum of £4OO and one surety of £4OO each. This is a sequel-to the impounding of Imperial Thorpe at Addington trots last Monday.. The Chief Detective stated that other charges were pending £4OO in stake money being involved.

AN AUCKLAND TURF INQUIRY. FIVE YEARS’ DISQUALIFICATION IMPOSED. (Per United Press Association.) Auckland, June 6. An inquiry regarding the ownership of the horse Niblick was held by the Auckland District Committee to-day. It was decided to disqualify for five years from date Ernest G. Rice for a breach of Rule one (g. I of part thirty-two of the Rules of Racing. AUSTRALIAN SPRING ENTRIES. RECORD NOMINATIONS RECEIVED. (United Press Assn.—Uy Telegraph—Copyright.) Sydney, June 6. The entries for the big spring race meetings in Sydney and Melbourne constitute a record. For Ihe leading handicap of the Australian J.C. Spring fixture the _ Epsom Handicap has attracted 211 nominations and the Metropolitan Handicap 169 —the entries for both events include many New Zealanders. For the leading event of the V.R.Cs. Spring meeting, Melbourne Cup, the entries total 303, and for the Caulfield Cup 298. SYDNEY JUMPER DESTROYED. A CUP WINNER PASSES. (United Press Assn.— Uy Telegraph—Copyright.) Sydney, June 6. The well-known gelding, Murray King, by Comedy King—Lady Cantala, who unexpectedly won the rich Sydney Cup in 1926 when trained by the ex-New Zealander, G. Price, has been destroyed. The Comedy King performer was recently put to hurdle racing and promised to become successful as a jumper, but an accident has evidently intervened to cut short his career. As he was a rising nine-year-old horse he was not old as good jumpers go.

RUGBY.

THE BRITISH TEAM’S VISIT.

29 INTERNATIONAL PLAYERS.

FAMOUS IRISH CAPTAIN COMING.

(Per United Press Association.)

Wellington, June 6.

“It is quite possible that as was the case witli tire s.de selected for South Africa m 1924 there will be one or two changes, but if the great majority of the chosen players make the tour the Home counties wm be exceptionally well represented. Everyone of tne 29 are Internationals and all but two, K. A. Sellars, one of the two full-backs, .and W. W. Walceheld, have been this season's choices.”

The above pleasing information was imparted by Mr Cecil Wray, the New Zealand Rugby Union’s representative in England, in a letter to the New Zealand Union. The team will leave England on the second Saturday in April and is due back in the second week in October.

"England,” explains Mr Wray, “is the chief contributor with nine players—K. A. Sellars and T. W. Brown (full-backs) ; C. D. Aarvold and 11. L. Novis (three-quar-ters) ; and H. Reid, C. D. A. Gummer, E. Coley, W. W. Wakefield and F. A. Martindale . (forwards). Scotland and Ireland each’ have seven representatives. The Scottish contingent are: W. M. Simmers, G. T. S. MacPherson and I. S. Smith (threequarters) ; J. Nelson and 11. D. Greenlees (half-backs) ; and H. S. Macintosh and J. R. Paterson (forwards). Ireland will be represented by G. V. Stephenson and J. B. Gouly (threequarters); ivl. Sugden (halfbacks) ; and F. J. Cagney, G. R. Beamish, o.' T. Payne and M. J. Dunne, (forwards). Wales will contribute W. H. Bowcott (threequarter) ; M. C. Powell and E. Williams (half-backs); and Ivor Jones, D. Parker and T. Arthur (forwards). Mr S. S. Dean, chairman of the Management Committee of the New Zealand Rugby Union, stated to-night that the team which Britain was sending to New Zealand next year would be far and away the strongest which the Old Country had ever despatched to this country. No previous British team had ever been composed of International players. The British players, Mr Dean said, had been selected conditionally upon their retaining their form. That the British selectors were in deadly earnest about sending their strongest possible team to New Zealand was evident from the fact that they had advised no fewer than 90 players in the four Rugby countries that they are still in the running for places in the team for New Zealand. It will come as good news to followers of the game in this country to learn that G. W. Stephenson, the famous Irish captain, is coming out with the team as his name did not appear in the original selection. Steph, enson is freely acknowledged in Great Britain to be the greatest threequarter in the United Kingdom to-day.
