Avondale races conclude to-day.

Auckland R.C. handicaps are due to morrow.

Kurow J.C. ' acceptances are called for Wednesday. • - - ■

Acceptances for the" Geraldine ■ 'meeting close to-day..

Handicaps for the D.J.C. Spring meeting are due next Monday.

R. C. Reed is keeping his team at Oamaru until after the Kurow meeting.

Sailor's Hope, the dam of Waterline, has produced a filly foal to Day Comet.

After racing at. Wanganui,-Marjoram was sent to Trentham for future'training.

It ig understood that the Wanganui Club made a loss of nearly £l,OOO over the recent meeting.

Paratoo still remains in the Hawkes Bay Guineas. The name was omitted from the telegraphed list.

Conditions locally could hardly have been worse for training on Saturday and little of interest took place.

The Hawkes Bay Hunt Club was £5 to the good over the recent race meeting. The Government took over £6OO in taxes.

While driving Desert Rey in a trial on Thursday morning, W. J. Tomkinson received a heavy fall and injured one of his wrists.

Simba was produced in the New Zealand Eclipse Stakes at Wanganui, and if this colt does not win races this season then his looks belie him, says an exchange.

When Limited makes his next appearance it may be as a hurdler. The Absurd gelding has been schooled over the sticks and has shown his ability to jump.

Royal Status, for whom the late Mr John Brown gave 2600 guineas as a yearling, believing him to be a half-brother to Prince Humphrey, recently ran last in a race at a Sydney meeting.

One of the most promising young horses in work at Addington is a three-year-old bay gelding by Rey de Oro, in L. Cavalier's stable. The youngster has not yet faced the barrier, but he has shown a lot of speed in his work. If not overdone this gelding should be heard of soon.

It was reported some weeks back, through advices received from Australia that Valicare had proved not to be in foal this season, but such has, fortunately for all concerned, proved incorrect, as she recently produced a filly to Magoie, and is now to be mated with Night Raid.

Vendome has not done much work of late, but she looks very well, says the Christchurch Press. At Addington on Friday she was worked one mile and a quarter without hopples. She did her work well, and it may not be long before J. J. Kenncrley has her at the top of her form.

Amorist, who met with a mishap on the eve of the August carnival, necessitating a spell, has resumed work. R. Longley has restricted him to easy tasks so far, but he will start on something more strenuous soon, as it is hoped to have him racing in hurdle events at the Dunedin and Wellington meetings next month.

Heavy rain overnight and further showers throughout the morning made the local tracks anything but a pleasant place on Saturday. The eand track was in great demand and a large number of horses worked it. It takes more than a few showers of rain to keep trainers and jockeys away from their job.

Mr T. H. Lowry’s brood mares, Miss Cute, dam of Clever, and Aliratum (Absurd — Desert Gold), left Hawkes. Bay last week on a visit to Hunting-Song in Gisborne. The journey was made by horse-float. Mr Gaine Carrington, owner of Hunting Song, having had one built especially for use in connection with his stud.

The Tractor —Cbligio filly in J. A. Rowland’s stable has not macle the recovery exacted that the recent operation and the wound may have to be opened again. This is very bad luck for Rowland as the filly was doing exceptionally well and was fairly forward for her McLean Stakes engagement next month. She could ill-afford to be idle at this stage.

In the book programme published by the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club, it was stated that the division in the New Zealand Cup would be drawn on Thursday, October 30, but as final acceptances for the race do not close until November 4, the club has decided to postpone the time of drawing until that date. Nomination (ssovs) for the New Zealand Cup close at 12 o’clock (noon) on Thursday, September

Glare, who was sold by the Trentham trainer, J. W. Lowe, to Mr J. Truskett, of Melbourne, after the last Wellington Autumn meeting, but who has not done too well since being taken up at Caulfield, reappeared on the track last week heavily bandaged on both forelegs. He appeared to be quite free in his action when galloped, and although he has been relieved of his Randwick engagements, he may yet prove to be a formidable opponent in the Caulfield and Melbourne Cups.

When the English mare Sweet Charity was purchased by Mr A. B. Williams for 800 guineas at the Kinloch stud dispersal, she had a filly foal by Martian at foot, and the youngster, Sympathetic, now three years old, is in work in J. H. Jefferd’s stable Sweet Charity was at the time in foal to Limond, and she produced another filly, for which the name Clemency was chosen. Clemency, however, has suffered from a deformity since birth, and as she is never likely to be a racing proposition she has been sent on a visit to Hunting Song.

W. Duncan was particularly active at Flemington on a recent morning, when he rode several horses on the tracks. Among horses Duncan piloted were Field Artillery and Touchwood, members of F. Musgrave’s team. Though it was stated Duncan might not ride again for some months, after receiving a broken neck us a result of a fall, it is understood that after another medical examination he will apply again for permission to ride in races. He appears to have made excellent progress, and his handling of horses on the tracks shows that he displays all his old-time brilliancy.

Although Great Peter is apparently all right again,’ there stilpremains a., dpubt as to whether he will stand a thorough wind-ing-up preparation, says the New Zealand Referee. It will be remembered that after a searching preparation for the Otahuhu Cup, Great Peter contracted internal trouble and was scratched for the event, even though he was taken to the course. Later on, after working satisfactorily, the son of Nelson Bingen was wound l up for the Auckland Winter Meeting, and a few days before that fixture he again suffered from an internal disorder. He was started- at the meeting, but failed.Jod make an. ..impression. 2 .7

Mr C. Boyle, owner of Conjurer IL, Rational 11., and Rasouli, who are now at Caulfield, - intends • to leave for Australia next ’week to witness the performances of his horses at the big Victorian, meetings next month and in November, Mr Boyle is (particularly hopeful of success with Conjurer 11., who has worked and performed attractively'since his arrival. After Flemington;' the fUll-brother to doughty Poitrel will be returned to the Dominion with

Rasouli and Rational 11., and it is his owner’s hope to produce him here among the steeplechasers next winter.

Five horses owned by the Auckland sportsman, Mr Wenzl Scholium, were due to leave for Sydney on Friday. They are the Takanini-trained pair, Shine On and Little Gift, and three from Pukekolie— Manx Cat, Kahakurd, and a two-year-old. W. Goscombe, private trainer to Mr Scholium, will not be making the trip with the team,-but will supervise the preparations of Tbpslar, Bugle Call, White Wings, Trustee andfSt. Ames. It is understood that trainer IL Doyle (who took Tea Time to Australia a few months back) will take the horses over for Mr Scholium, who will follow later. Mr Scholium has raced horses in Sydney previously, and worn the Suburban Handicap, one mile, with True Blood, at the A.J.C. Spring Meeting in 1927.

America has taken a leaf out of New Zealand's book, and at the Mansfield Meeting tried something of an innovation when the mile dash was put on, the six horses going from a standing start. An American writer has the following: “Here were six veteran trotters from four to fourteen years of age, several of whom did not carry the best reputations as post horses. They stood at the wire as meek as kittens, waited a minute or two, and were off in perfect alignment. The start was perhaps tne best ever seen on a harness track, and it was made quite evident that harness horses can go to the post, stand, and get away fb a good start, and put up splendid contests in good time. Things can be accomplished and advancements made if everyone is but willing to try and help.” Curiously enough the race was won by R. B. Plaxico, who while in New Zealand had had some experience of standing starts.’

The United States has been described as the land of records, and, according to the figures published, it now has the distinction of Ktiving bred two horses who stand .first and second respectively in the list of great stake winners. Gallant Fox, who is the bright particular star of this season’s three-year-old division, is credited with winning prize money to the amount of £63,550, which beats Zev’s record of a few years ago by £lOOO. The largest existing stakes in America now range from £20,000 to £-10,000, and there is a proposal to institute a race with a stake of £50,000. Wonder is expressed in many quarters (says an exchange) as to where the money is obtained to enable the American clubs to provide such prize money. Sweepstakes of £2OO are not uncommon, so that in many cases the owners supply a large proportion of the stakes, but still it remains a bit of a puzzle where the money comes from. The figures attached to the stake winning record in America are, no doubt, to be regarded with a large amount of interest, but the question that arises is whether the owner of Gallant Fox will be sufficiently encouraged thereby to send his colt tO-England to meet the best that the Old Country can produce. It has been frequently stated that the Americans are very anxious to furnish the winner of the Ascot Gold Cup with a horse bred in the United States, and it will be interesting to see whether Gallant Fox is estimated to be up to the standard required to win the historic weight-for-age race, the distance of which extends to two miles and a-half.

Did the Warwick Stakes at Warwick Farm on August 30 attract the greatest collection of racehorses ever seen in one event in the history of the Australian turf? asks a Sydney writer. . Opinions may differ on that point, as some of the old-timers quote Carbine, Abercorn and their famous contemporaries: but one thing is certain: racegoers at Warwick Farm saw the greatest collection of huge stake winers the Australian turf has known in one race. A pessimist remarked as the field was walking round the enclosure that we would never see their like again, and then to be a super pessimist said that it was unlikely that'they would ever meet again. Perhaps he was right, as there is no race on the programme at the A.J.C. spring meeting that will attract them all, and it is unlikely that they will all run in the Chelmsford Stakes at Tattersail’s meeting, or at Rosehill. Total up the winnings of the five stars —Amounis, Limerick, Phar Lap, Night March, and Juji San—and it amounts, to the amazing total of £133,477 10/-. Shades of Etienne de Mestre and the Hon. James White. Their horses—and they owned champions—raced for a mere pittance in comparison with what the weight-for-age horses race for to-day. Add to the winnings of the champions the stakes won by the other runners —Chide, Loquacious, Western Lass, Donald and John Buchan —- which approximately total £21,000, and the winnings of the Warwick Stakes field amounts to £154,477. It is a stupendous amount, and demonstrates in no uncertain fashion the amount of prize money that good horses can win to-day. The prize money won by the five stars and their wins are: Amounis, 30 wins, £40,823 10/-; Limerick, 281 wins, £38,729 10/-; Phar Lap, 14 wins, £26,996; Night March, 154 wins, £25,268 10/-; Fuji San, 17 wins, £16,660. Amounis may be verging on the sere and yellow, and the same applies to Limerick and Fuji San, but Phar Lap is in the full vigour of his youth, and so is Night March. While it is too much to expect old Amounis and Limerick to race for more than another season, Phar Lap and. Night March are both sound horses, and several seasons of usefulness are before them.

Fine weather was experienced for the opening of the Avondale Spring meeting and there was a large attendance. The course was slow, but otherwise in good order. The totalisator handled £37,656 against £46,797, a decrease of £9141. Jaeldy Karo won the Maiden Plate handsomely. Chrysology (£764) and Rosshire (£600) carried about twice as much as the third choice, Jaeldy Karo (£337). Escalus and Vanessa cut- out the early running and they led to the straight from Illuminagh, Lusoma, Chrysology, Arch Eagle, Miss Albyn, Sub-Editor, Jaeldy Karo and Rosshire. At the distance Jaeldy Karo and Arch Eagle were in the van, the former asserting himself to win by a head from the fast finishing Rosshire with Arch Eagle a neck away third. Beau Irish and Illuminagh were right' up next, being followed by Land Measure, Protomint and Great Emblem. Rosshire lost his position on the home turn but finished with a great burst.

Make Up, the favourite, nearly fell at the first fence in the hurdle race and that stopped him. Air King was always prominent, Daylight leading him into the straight, Carlaris, Royal Day and Royal Visitor being handy. Air King did best to win by a length from Daylight with Royal Day and Carlaris at length intervals. Royal Visitor, Thursby, Wan Lu and Make Up were well back.

Courtesy was favourite in the Champion Hack Plate, but she failed badly, the long two days motor journey from Napier apparently having left its effects. Valroe was early prominent but was steadied and was just behind Biddy’s Boy, Sir Kay, Cruachan and Imateagirl at the straight entrance with The Sun heading the others. Valroe hit the front again a furlong from home and although Biddy’s Boy challenged, won by a head. Te Hoia and Sir Kay were together two lengths away, being followed by Cruachan, Waimuri, Royal Finance, Volimond, Imateagirl, Courtesy and Johneen.

The Cup. Prodice scored a clearcut victory in the Avondale Cup for which she was at a nice price. Paddon, Hannibal, Standfast, Eager Rose, Maori Boy, Seatown, Barometer', Prodice, and Desert Glow were prominent in the rush to the turn out of the straight. On the bend Standfast tore to the front and passing the six furlongs was out four lengths from Hannibal, Paddon, Seatown, Eager Rose, Nassock, Maori Boy, High Pitch, Prodice, Barometer, Historic and Desert Glow with Transformer, Mendip and Star Stranger, the last three, being at intervals. A little further on Seatown set after Standfast, but the latter was still three lengths clear at the home turn with Seatown clear of Hannibal, Nassock, High Pitch, Prodice and Historic, the last named being forced out wide. Standfast was under the whip at the distance where Seatown got to him and Historic was next, but then Prodice put in her claim, coming through the middle of the field and finishing very strongly. She was going away’ at the post, being three parts of a length ahead of Standfast while Historic, who weakened over the last chain, was half a length back. Seatown was two lengths away fourth, and then came Eager Rose, Maori Boy’, High Pitch, Paddon, Hannibal, Mendip and Desert Glow with Star Stranger a bad last. Avondale Stakes. King Colossus was a big favourite but at a good price in the Avondale Stakes and he might easily have been beaten. The favourite began best and was with Royal Artist at the home turn, following closely being Royal Gallant, Bonnylea, Llangylan, Barascope (wide out) and Lady’ Vane. The favourite was doing .it nicely up the running, but he had to be shaken up to beat Lady Vane who came with a great burst and there was only a head between them at the post. Royal Artist was three parts of a length away and Summertime fourth. The latter looked a possibility a furlong from home, but. weakened. Following were Gold Sceptre, Royal Gallant, Llangylan, Kingsway, Hunting Horn and Baroscope. Both King Colossus and Lady Vane should dp well although the latter is on the small side.

Awarere won the Flying Handicap from Supremacy’, but the latter was a good thing beaten. Valstreet was badly left. Imamint led across the fop and into the straight from Awarere, Awamutu, Awaken, Paganell:, Nancy Lee, White Wings, Supremacy, Lady Quex, and Prince Vai. Once in line Awarere joined issue with Imamint and latter on Supremacy got up when his rider Jet up. Awarere went on to beat Supremacy, who came again, by a head with Imcmint a neck away. Lucy Rose was fourth and the next were White Wings, Flying Prince, Awamutu, Prince Vai and Lady’s Boy.

Catoma and Principal carried big money and with Claremore they staged a thrilling finish. The favoured pair from inside positions were first away, but Biddy Comet soon ran through and was clear at the turn from Krishna, Principal, Catoma, Indolent, Gay Cockade, Claremore and Tetrachate. Over the last bit Catoma, Principal and Clarenmore participated in a punishing finish, the trio passing the post in that order, beads separating them. Further back came Biddy Comet. The Sun, Krishna, GayjCockade and Takaranga. The favourites were ousted in the final race, Envoy wanning at double figures. Te Atiawa and Ohinemuri led to the straight fr/m Lady Court, Envoy, Branson, Grand Tea, Prince of Orange and Panther. Envoy got to the front at the distance and won by half a length with Grand Tea, Te Atiawa and Prince of Orange in that order separated by heads. The next were Panther. Bennie, Royal Doulton, Llanore, Mosaic and Branson.

Sporting writers here are complaining that interference during the races is far too common. There waa considerable jostling in the Rosehill Guineas and the connections of Veilmond express the opinion that their horse was deliberately “'dealt with.” The stewards, after an inquiry, found.the jockey, J. Simpson, blameworthy and suspended him for two months. F. Dempsey, rider of Calmond in the same race, said that his mount was exceedingly lucky to remain on its feet, so marked was the interference.*. KUROW JOCKEY CLUB. HANDICAPS FOR SPRING MEETING.

Although officially the 1930 Rugby season is at an end, friendly games between town and country clubs are still being arranged. At Rugby Park on Saturday afternoon a team from the Invercargill Club played a Nightcaps fifteen. The Blues were not by any means at full senior strength, a number of the Galbraith Shield winners having forsaken football for the day to play hockey. Nevertheless the town side proved too strong for the country players, the final score being 28-11 in favour of Blues. The heavy rain of Friday night and Saturday morning left the ground in a very heavy state and spectacular Rugby was out of tho question. Nevertheless the game was full of incident and was more evenly contested than the scores indicate. The country players were first into their stride; good work by the forwards and smart play by Hunt bringing a couple of tries. Then the Blues began to find theii;, feet, both backs and forwards giving a good display. Before half-times Foster, Clode and Keast scored, Lee and McKay each converting a try. This gave Blues a lead of 13-6 at the interval. For the first twenty minutes of the second spell the Nightcaps team displayed ■ great vigour and had there been finish about the movements several tries would have accrued. In the closing stages of the game the Blues held the upper hand and added 15 points through tries by Bailey, Purdue, Foster, Lee and Bruce. Nightcaps registered a converted try, the final score reading, Blues 28, Nightcaps 11. Mr T. Findlay was referee. TOURNAMENT AT THE BORSTAL. SEVEN-A-SIDE GAMES. Rugby has been making rapid strides in the Borstal Institution, evidence of which was forthcoming on Saturday afternoon when a seven-a-side tournament, with 8 Borstal teams competing, was held with marked success. This is the first seven-a-side tournament to be held at the institution, but it is safe to say that it will not be the last. The games were contested very keenly but in the best of spirit and the final was full of thrills. At the conclusion of play a surprise was sprung on the boys when medals, attractively worked in coloured leathers and donated by the superintendent (Mr C. G. L. Pollock) were presented to the members of the winning team by Mrs R. Henderson.

Tho results of tho matches were: First Round. No. 2 team defeated No. 1,. 3-niL No. 4 defeated No. 3, 8-3. No. 6 defeated No. 5,' 3-nil. No. 7 defeated No. 8, 11-nil. Semi-Finals. No. 2 defeated No. 3, 8-3. No. 7 defeated No. 6, 6-3. Final. Nd. 2 team defeated No. 7. In the final the score at the end of the second spell was 5-all, so a fresh spell was ordered. Even then the winners could nor be found. In the fourth spell, however, No. 7 team conceded a force down, so No. 2 team were proclaimed the winners. REPRESENTATIVE GAMES. OTAGO DEFEAT CANTERBURY. A MUD SCRAMBLE. Dunedin, September 20. Otago defeated Canterbury to-day by 11 points to 3. The game was played in pouring rain on a ground which had been saturated by several hours steady downpour. The Otago forwards played an exceptional game and gave the backs more of the ball than they have been accustomed to. The Canterbury forwards worked hard, but the backs Were not comfortable in the sea of water in which the game was played. Canterbury started a dangerous passing movement from the kick-off, but Faulks saved well. The visitors continued to press and Brown made a bold bid to get across. Otago returned play to midway- and Giles and McKenzie led a rush to the Canterbury line, but the former fell and lost possession. From near the visitors’ line Bathgate sent out to Fookes who found the line at the corner. Canterbury- forced and a few minutes later another timely force saved the visitors. The Otago forwards made a great rush, but Hart relieved with a kick for the line. Good following up by Giles brought the first try. McKenzie kicked through and Giles, coming up fast, beat the defenders to the ball to score well out. Souter goaled magnificently.—Otago 5, Canterbury 0. The home team were holding their own well and had carried play to the visitors’ twenty-five line when an infringement byCanterbury gave Souter an opportunity to goal again.—Otago 8, Canterbury 0. Both teams were handling a difficult ball well, but it was hard for the play-ers to keep their feet. Heavy- rain was still falling and the pools on the ground seemed to be getting larger all the time. The Canterbury forwards broke away four times in succession, but each time Faulks fielded well and relieved the sorely-tried defence. The game was held up for a few minutes while an unidentifiable Canterbury forward had some of the mud scraped from his face and hair. Brown broke away at halfway and after a good dash down the line, measured his length in six inches of water. From a scramble in the visitors’ twentyfive Souter and Hore got away, but an obstruction spoilt the movement. Souter took the free kick, but his dummy proved ineffective and Canterbury cleared. Fookes showed up in another dash and had a clear run to the line when he tripped and fell. Canterbury- forced. Giles charged down a kick near the line, the ball rebounding from Canterbury into his arms, but he failed to hold it. From a scrum Bathgate sent Bradanovich away, but he just failed to get across. Otago kept up a fierce attack. Laing followed up a lucky- speculator and scored just on half time. Souter's kick failed. —Otago 11, Canterbury 0. Second Spell.

The second spell opened with some strenuous work by the Canterbury- forwards who kept up a consistent attack which kept play in the Otago twenty--five for the first ten minutes with the exception of a brilliant dash by McSkimming who was pushed out ten yards from home. Canterbury had a good chance to open the score from a penalty, but Mullan’s kick failed to rise. Lilburn did not come on for the second spell, being replaced by Hodgkinson. Mullan was hurt after 12 minutes’ play and retired. Innes moved up to fiveeighths and Taylor came on. Otago now took a turn at attack, but the defence was too solid and Canterbury was soon on tho offensive again. Stewart gained 30 yards with a good line-kick and Hodgkinson followed up with another short punt that found the line near the corner. From the lineout Stewart secured and battled over. Innes failed with the kick.—Otago 11, Canterbury 3. Faulks was playing a great game at fullback, fielding cleanly and always sure. He saved his side time and time again with good line-kicking. Carleton made a characteristic dash down the line, but Fookes pushed him out and the Otago forwards took the ball at their toes to the visitors’ twenty-five. Stewart headed a forward rush almost to the Otago line, where four scrums ensued. It was a solid tussle, but the defence was just too good, Laing eventually relieving with a fortunate kick. Play went to the visitors’ territory where Souter had an unsuccesstul attempt at goal from a penalty. Canterbury backs engaged in the best passing bout of the day, but Bradanovich, who was the last hope, intercepted beautifully near the line and jinked his way through almost to halfway. Hazlehurst kicked through and Stewart and Hart looked dangerous until a penalty stopped their progress. With two minutes to go Stichbury went off hurt and two freekicks to Otago concluded the game with the score at 11 to 3. The junior match resulted—Otago 9, Canterbury 6. SOUTH ISLAND MAORIS. DEFEATED BY CANTERBURY B. Christchurch, September 20. The last match of the Rugby season was played at Lancaster Park to-day, when the Canterbury B team defeated the South Island Maoris by 23 points to 6. Tries were scored for Canterbury by Cotterill, Perkins, Scrimshaw, Porterfield and Oliver and McAuliffe a potted goal. Cotterill and Loveridge each converted a try. Manihera scored the Maoris’ two tries. WELLINGTON DEFEAT WAIRARAPA. A RUNAWAY VICTORY. Wellington, September 20. Wellington scored a runaway victory against Wairarapa at Athletic Park this afternoon by 42 points to 19. At half-time the home side were leading by 17 to 3, and though Wairarapa made up some of the deficit and at one period were only nine points behind, Wellington produced a great last fifteen minutes’ spurt and rattled on 14 points in as many minutes. Cooke played a magnificent game for Wellington. He was in nearly every attack and on defence he saved his side time and again. The ecorers for Wellington were Oliver (3), Mackay (3) and Ball (2), Julian, Price and Cooke. The latter player kicked a penalty goal and converted three tries. Reid, Fuller and Jury scored a try each for; Wairarapa and Fuller kicked two penalty goals and converted two tries. Mr J. A. Scott refereed.
