Awaken has recovered from the soreness that prevented her running at Feildii.g, and is working regularly at Hawera. This filly will line up in good order at Auckland.
The former Te Awamutu owned gelding, Papatu, who has been racing in Sydney for a couple of seasons, broke down in a racn at Randwick this month and he will require a long spell.
When being returned to Whangarei on Thursday evening from Huanui, Mr J. P. Tierney’s stallion Delightment (CatmintDelightful) developed internal trouble as the result of a rupture, and had to be destroyed.
J. P. Coyle stated at Woodville that Pahu, who sustained side trouble at the New Zealand Cup meeting, and had to forgo all engagements there, is all right again. Pahu will be ridden in the Manawatu Cup by C. Goulsbro.
The erratic Sarchedon —Shrill gelding High Pitch, now in his seventh year, is among the latest to be set to hurdling. He is said to shape quite promisingly in his preliminary schooling at Paeroa. He must have a fairly big debit balance to wipe off the slate from his record as a flat-racer.
Great Charter, who was galloped on in the running of the Criterion Handicap at Riccarton, has made a complete recovery, and will be at Ellerslie on Boxing Day and subsequent days. Commandant, Courtesy, Monarchy, and Chrysology, also in R. Alexander's stable, are all pleasing in their track essays in preparation for the trip to Auckland.
Telegrams entering Compris for the two chief events at the Southland Racing Club’s meeting and Invictus for two hack events were received by the secretary after 'closing time yesterday. The presence of Compris, who is a good handicap horse in the making, would have addetl some interest to the event.
The three-year-old Merry Peel in 11. Donovan’s team at Riccarton developed tendon trouble over the week-end and it has been decided to send him out for another spell, says the Press. Merry Peel had been showing a lot of promise in his preparation and he looked likely to be a good stake-earner for the stable in the next few months.
Chatting over matters with a Sydney Sun writer, a leading Randwick trainer stated that he lost money by charging £4 per week to train a horse. He went into the details minutely and showed how, at the very least, it cost him £4 6/- per head to do justice to his horses. The question was raised how some trainers managed to make ends meet who charged £3 10/- per horse.
L’Allegro is the name given a four-year-old gelding by Day Comet—Lady Faithful by Archiestown—Miss Lobelia, who is owned locally by Mr P. Vercoe, says the Waikato Times. L’Allegro, who is closely related to the dual Grand National Steeplechase winner, Wiltshire, has been jogged about on the tracks at Te Rapa. He is a good stamp for the jumping business at which he has already shown some aptitude.
Lochlaggan is to be put aside for a term, says the Christchurch Press. She has given her trainer a certain amouut of anxiety owing to joint, trouble, and although there is nothing serious amiss her owner, Mr A. Chisholm, who inspected her on Monday, decided to give her a six months’ spell on his property at Otautau. C. Emerson will send the filly south next week, and is to get her back at the termination of her holiday.
The programme for the Summer meeting of the Forbury Park Trotting Club is to hand. The sum of £4,250 will be given in stakes. The main events on an attractive card are the Dunedin Cup of £650, class 4.29, two miles, and the Metropolitan Handicap of £5OO. class 4.29, two miles. For unhoppled trotters of class there is the Otago Handicap, £250, class 4.44, two miles and the Crescent Handicap of £250, class 4.44, two miles. There are no saddle events on the programme and they are probably gone for ever from this card. Entries are due on January 8.
Further evidence of the policy of stake reduction adopted by the V.R.C. is provided by the programme Esued by the club for its New Year’s day meeting. The prize money allotted the six events totals £3500. Last year, when sweepstakes were included in the prize money, a sum of £5325 was distributed. Sweepstakes have since been discontinued by the V.R.C., and an allround reduction has, in keeping with the times, taken place. The actual saving to the club, in stake money over the meeting in question will be £1825 compared with the fixture of twelve months ago.
Representatives of trainers and jockeys met the committee and officials of the Australian Jockey Club at Randwick on December 5, and conferred on the number of horses that should race in different events. It was agreed that 24 should be the maximum to start from the mile and a quarter post, that 30 runners would be allowed from the mile post, 26 from the six furlongs mark, and 20 from the five furlongs post. Set weights and classic races, such as the Breeders' Plate and Gimcrack Stakes, will be excepted. Long-distance, races were not considered, as there is never any danger of an excessive number of starters in these events.
Historic, who. is in both the Auckland and Manawatu Cups, will definitely race at Manawatu. S. J. Reid made this announcement on Saturday morning, and also that B. H. Morris will ride him, writes “The Watcher.” This means that Morris will not be available for Concentrate in the Auckland Cup, and at present Concentrate is without a rider in the big two mile race. It is probable that the mount will go either to A. E. Ellis or T. Webster. As Morris thoroughly understands Concentrate his connections are naturally disappointed that his services will not be available, but he is
so well at present that he should race up to his best for any capable horseman. Lorigan is also at present without a rider for the two-year-old Oratorian in the Foal Stakes.
The three-year-old Full Measure, by Surveyor from Thurence, and the two-year-old Mondorous, by Lirnond from Duchess Eudorus, returned to Auckland from Sydney by the Ulimaroa on Tuesday of last week. Full Measure, owned by Mr James Paterson, was sent to Sydney last autumn, and while there was an inmate of R. O’Donnell’s team at Randwick. He raced fairly consistently, but was unfortunate in being narrowly beaten on several occasions. His one win and three seconds there were worth £212 15/- to his owner. Mondorous, owiled by Mr C. M. Emaneul, was also sent to Sydney in the autumn, when he went into D. Lewis’s stable after being passed in at the yearling sales. Mondorous was doing well in his training until about a fortnight ago, when he developed trouble in one of his knees, and he has been sent back home for a spell.
Most of the progeny of Tea Tray have be'vp merely sprinters, but Melbourne racing num are wondering whether Autopay will prove an exception. This two-year-old colt is out of the Bezonian mare La Paix (dam of Pay Paix and Pound Note, both of whom are winners), and most students of breeding will arrive at the conclusion that a colt by a son of The Tetrarch out of a Bezonian mare is destined for a sprinting career. However, the manner in which Autopay won both his last two races suggests stamina. When he scored at Epsom, Autopay came from a long way back, and in his subsequent success at Sandown Park he showed grit and determination in overcoming Jacomalt at. the finish. Autopay, who was bred at Elderslie by Mr lan Duncan, brought only 140 guineas when offered in the sale ring in Melbourne. He has already won more than double that amount in stakes.
The Southland Racing Club had every reason to be satisfied with the response made by owners when entries for the Summer meeting closed yesterday. An increase of 27 over last year’s figures reads very well and at present, despite the world wide depression, the prospects for a successful meeting appear bright. The Invercargill Cup has drawn a field of 20, one better than last year. There arc 11 in the two-year-old event the first day and 12 the second. There are 16 and 18 in the.two big sprints ..while the trotting races have again attracted big fields. The hack events have filled to big numbers, there being 50 in the Rosedale Handicap and 40 in the New Year Handicap. It looks as if there will be divisions in these races. Mr If. A. Pierce 'will declare his handicaps on December 29. A comparison between the fields this year and last can be obtained from the following table:—
1929 1930 Avenal Hurdles 13 14 Hopeful Stakes 11 11 Flying Handicap 21 Hi New Year Handicap 30 40 Invercargill Cup 19 20 Creti Harness Trot 37 26 Waikiwi Handicap 27 38 Waihopai Handicap 16 17 Gladstone Hurdles 11 14 Roslyn Harness Trot .. .. 26 26 Shorts Handicap 18 IS Summer Handicap 27 38 Southland Handicap 24 24 Nursery Handicap 1! 12 Rosedale Handicap 40 50 Final Handicap 26 23 Totals 360 387 The English mare Celerity II has not done a great deal of racing, but sufficient to prove class, writes “Sentinel." Last season she started in four races ami won twice. She won the Ranfurly Handicap with 8.5 in Iniin 40 2-ssee., and the Gore Cup with 9.0 in 2min 6 l-ssec. Both, these gallops read well from a track point of view. In the previous year she won the Gore Cup with 9.0 in 2min lOJsec., and in 1927-28 she started in 12 races and won eight of them, in addition to being placed in three others. This shows that she was only once out of a place during a season’s campaign. Celerity II finished up that year with four consecutive, wins. She won the Flying Handicap with 8.12 at Invercargill, beating Black Duke (9.0) by a head. Then came a win in the Easter Handicap at Riverton with 8.11, the Fiord Handicap with 9.7, and the D.J.C. Provincial Handicap with’9.6. Good racing is not permanent, but fluctuates and is apt. to deteriorate with increasing age. Some horses retain form to a much greater age than others, particularly those that have not done a great deal of racing such as Gloaming. At Winton, Celerity II won the Cup with 9.3 from Night Maid, who carried 7.6}, by a neck. The margin could have been increased, but the rider on Celerity II took matters rather easily when he ran to the front and had to shake his mount up at the finish. Night Maid won over a mile on the second day, but Celerity II was not there. In the Otago Handicap, Night Maid has been, asked to meet Celerity II on 41b worse terms, and in the Wyndham Cup 2} lb worse terms. The question naturally arises why the vanquished should meet the. victor on worse terms for being defeated. The handicappers may reply that Night Maid carried 4Jlb overweight in the Winton Cup, but she did so to secure the services of one of the best lightweights in the country, and might not have been seen if ridden by a boy at handicap weight. NEWS FROM AUCKLAND. CANDIDATES FOR ELLERSLIE. FORM AT TE AWAMUTU. CHROMADYNE PRICED AT 3,000 GUINEAS. (Special to the Times.) Auckland, December 17. The absence of Chromadyne from the sprint field at Te Awamutu last Saturday has given rise to all sorts of stories, some with an element of truth in them. There was no doubt that an Australian sportsman was anxious to acquire the Quin Abbey gelding, and the price mentioned was 3,000 guineas, but no deal resulted. Then again Chromadyne was suffering with heel trouble. This too was true, but the ailment was but slight and his owner stated last Saturday that the gelding was doing quite well, thank you. It was not stated why he did not take his place in the field last week, but there is absolutely nothing the matter with Chromadyne, who retains his place at the head of the quotations for the Railway Handicap. Since his effortless win over Royal Parade and company at Woodville last week, Hunting Cry has been in persistent demand for the Railway Handicap. He won at Woodville with 9.13 and he did not have to get out of a jog to win. At Ellerslie he will have 151 b less to carry, so that with 8.12 it is expected that he will be a hard horse to beat.
Last year the winning double at Auckland was Concentrate and Hunting Cry, and the indications are that this same combination will be prominent on Friday week at Ellerslie. Concentrate proved at Riccarton that he was near his best, and as he looked capable of some improvement it is reasonable to expect that he is a better horse now.
There was an interesting duel between the stable mates, Karapoti and Pegaway, in the Flying Handicap at Te Awamutu. The former had the advantage at the start and was quickly in front of his companion, who was three horses closer in at the barrier. • Karapoti soon caught up to the pace-maker, Awamutu, and he quickly disposed of him to lead into the straight. From this out Karapoti was always doing it right and he won really well. Pegaway made, a bold showing under his 10.1, which is 91b above his Railway Handicap impost. Nevertheless he had everj chance, for he was never off the rails. Approaching the straight he was tucked in behind the leaders and when asked to catch Karapoti he responded nobly. It was a good honest tussle between the pair, and the honours appeared to be very much with the three-year-old, who was holding
Pegaway at the finish. Although Pegaway failed to win under 10.1, Aussie (lid a couple of years ago with 10.6, but of course the latter did not have such a brilliant three-year-old to contend with as Karapoti. Then on the other hand Aussie was a Simon-pure sprinter, whereas Pegaway is more of a miler than a six-fur-long horse, and the Te Awamutu track favours sprinters. Leading jockey Hector Gray should have an idea of the possibilities of Karapoti in the Railway Handicap, which he has ridden for a couple of times this season. He has also been aboard Hunting Day, another prime Railway fancy, and then he was on Cylinder when the Te Awamutu galloper sprang upon him the surprise of his life. If Hunting Day happens to be missing from the field for the big Ellerslie sprint, it is possible that Gray will have the ride on Karapoti. At present the Awapuni lightweight, W. Broughton, who won the Stewards on Autopay and was also on Karapoti a week later when he won at Te Rapa, has been engaged for Karapoti. So that this chain of circumstance should give trainer A. Cook an excellent line upon Karapoti’s Railway prospects. 1 There is much speculation as to where the Fordell trainer-jockey L. G. Morris will be on Boxing Day, and there is a good reason for it. Now that it has been arranged that Historic will contest the Manawatu Cup, B. 11. Morris will probably have to be at Awapuni to ride him. This would necessitate a rider for Concentrate. L. G. Morris had the ride on this fellow when he defeated all but- Night March in the New Zealand Cup. Now, although L. G. Morris’s horses will bo at Awapuni, he has Consent engaged in the Railway at Ellerslie, and if he came north with this gelding that would permit him to pilot Concentrate, as well as his own horse. Granting that this is what will be arranged, a preliminary view of the composition of the Auckland Cup and Railway fields sugegsts that in the starters and their riders will be included the following: Auckland Cup. Star Stranger 11. Gray. Gay Crest A. Eastwood. My Own IL Wiggins. Gay Cockade R. Mcßae. Count Cavour E. Ludlow. Courageous A. Dick. Night March R. Reed. Concentrate. L. Morris. In the Shade R. Bagby. Count Palatine .. . - S. Gerrand. Paquito G. Humphries. Railway Handicap. Hunting Cry R. Reed. Chromadyne R. McTavish. ;
Karapoti W. Broughton. Hunting Day H. Gray. Pegaway A. Tinker. Toxeuma A. E. Ellis. White Wings E. A. Keesing. Autopay .. A. Eastwood. Gesture H. Wiggins. Great Star E. Ludlow. Paganclli O. Mclnally. Consent L. G. Morris. Royal Tea ....... .. A. Parsons.
The acceptances arc not due until Friday next, but it can be taken that all the above, with the possible exception of Consent, arc sure to take their places in the fields for the big Auckland double on Boxing Day—Friday of next week. That Eager Rose should be sent out a pronounced favourite over the Auckland Cup candidate, In the Shade, in the Te Awamutu Cup last Saturday’, pointed to the fact that a great many, backers were not too sanguine as to how the Australian Sun gelding would handle this small course. Tho writer for. once was very skeptical, but now that, it is all over it must be confessed that the fears were groundless. They were justified by the horse known to Aucklanders when he last raced here, but when stripped last Saturday he was a new In the Shade when seen in the bright sunlight. Instead of being in the shade himself, he shaded his opponents in every way you looked at it: he was a winner on points even before the race started. Yet when he won he paid a surprisingly good price. The start, an excellent one, saw In Hie Shade being restrained to keep near the rear. He could have been right up with the pacemakers after the two sharp turns had been negotiated in the first three furlongs, but he was steadied. Half a mile from home he was a clear last, but there was not a great deal between the whole field. A furlong farther on Bagby sent In the Shade along, and running quickly round the field he was in the firing line at the home turn. Here Mervettc was going very well, but the Cup candidate soon got. her and then was content to hold her, finally winning very comfortably. It was an impressive performance, quite apart from the fact that the winner was called upon to concede from 181 b. to 321 b. ihat the pace was on was shown by the time, 2.8 2-5, with the first half mile, round two turns, cut out in 52, and the last six furlongs in 1.16 2-5, but In the Shale's time would be about a second faster. It was the opinion among many that if In the Shade won on Saturday, he would have a second to none chance in the Auckland Cup, and now he has done one it but remains to do the other and the hardest part. Nevertheless, it is going to
take something pretty good to beat the Takanini representative, and trainer Jamieson is now more confident than ever that he has the Cup winner. In the Shade is a good stayer, for he has finished second and third in the last two New Zealand Cups, in addition to finishing second in the A.J.C. Metropolitan Handicap, run over a mile and five furlongs. If R. S, Bagby can get down to the right weight,. 8.3, it is more than probable that he will ride In the Shade in the Auckland Cup, and on present appearances it looks like being a winning mount.
