' NOTES BY SIR MODRED. Hie Nelson Jockey Club’s Cup fixture will be concluded this afternoon. Southland R.C. and Marlborough R. will conduct gatherings this week. » Acceptances for Oamaru Trotting Club’s Winter fixture close on Tuesday evening. Entries for the Ashburton County Racing Club’s Autumn meeting are due to-night. In his new role of a trainer, D. O’Connor, will handle Silver Salver at Riccarton. Nightguard and The Quprn are to be operated upon for breathing afflictions. Wind-troubled Nightguard ranks as a younger full brothel- to defunct Phar Lap. At Forbury Park T.C. meeting on Thursday, C. King (Taxpayer) was fined £lO for crossing. Owing to maritime strife, it is doubtful when Mr W. T. Hazlett’s horses will leave for Australia. There was a decrease in the totalisator returns at Amberley with 5/tickets available. At Forbury on Saturday 13—10 Dolly Derby returned longest price recorded on the course. The totalisator returns for Egmont two days’ meeting yielded an increase of £1294 10/-. Gibraltar appears to have returned a surprising price in Egmont leading event on Saturday. At Forbury on Saturday R. B. Berry piloted two profitable winners, in 3—2 Checkers and 9—lo Tactless. Promising jumper Okopua broke down in the Egmont Steplechase event won well by Copey. Swift Melbourne sprinter, Ibrani, by Moabite, has been sold to be raced in India. Australian jockey. B. Rosen, will not locate in England this season, but will remain in France. In their respective gallops on the S. track on Saturday, The Smuggler and Toreador did well. Tapanui-bred and owned pacing mare, Probationer, has won three good races of late. Royal Saxon, who has been hacking on the roads for some time, is working again at Wingatui. The speedy little mare Clara Bow stepped out well in the mud on S.R.C. track on Saturday. Despite 5/- tickets, th . public did not appear to appreciate the old system of two prices at Amberley. The Australian idea of win and place Wagering, with 5/- tickets will yet prevail in Maoriland. At the recent Randwick sales, the yearling sister to the Aucklander Bronze Eagle brought 210gns. Wingatui owner-trainer, D. P. Wilson, 24 wins, is giving H. and A. Cutts, 27 wins, a good run for honours. Having obtained a permit, the Greymouth Jockey Club will hold a oneday meeting on June 3. Juggle, winner of the Nelson Cup, is an aged mare, with a consistent record on the West Coast. When Elite Bingen won at Forbury Park on Thursday last, with a halfcentury reward hung out, she was supported to win by Southlanders. Sold in Sydney recently for 900gns a colt by Heroic is from the N.Z. mare St. Regis, by Hotchkiss—St. Evelyn, by St. Leger—Lady Evelyn. If the prevailing weather is any indication, F. J. McKay is fortunate in not getting shipping accommodation for his Australian trip to-day. At Sydney yearling sales a half-sister by Constant Sun (imp.) to Winooka was purchased by Mr Dangar, owner of Peter Pan, at 675gns. Dollie Derby, who returned a sensational dividend at Forbury on Saturday, is by Nelson Derby (Nelson Bingen imp.—Norice, by Charles Derby) from Little Kewpie. A recent addition to C. Gieseler’s team at Wingatui is the two-year-old Gold Boy, a son of Pala'din (imp.) from Constant, by Martian from Lady Kinloch. C. Gieseler’s latest pupil, Gold Boy, won the Trial Stakes (6f.) at the Tapanui Racing Club’s meeting on February 1, beating June the Third and Lochend in the minor places. When Dollie Derby paced home in the Royal Handicap at Forbury >on Saturday to the tune of a price nearing the century mark, she had 19 tenshilling followers to win. The Ashburton district owner-trainer, M. C. McTigue, had a great afternoon at Forbury Park on Saturday, when he produced two good winners in Dollie Derby and Waress. The five-year-old horse, Royal Love, who broke a fetlock joint at the Amberley J.C.’s meeting on Saturday was owned by Mr J. T. Preston, of Canterbury, and trained by J. B. Pearson at Riccarton. He was a son of Royal Divorce from Orellana and was known as a useful galloper, but somewhat difficult to prepare. The Riccarton performer was being got ready to contest winter events and his loss will be regretted by his owner and Pearson, as he was a smart mover in deep going. Christchurch Times reports that the imported gelding Lord Argosy, and the yearling filly by Weathervane from Lava, by Solferino from Formless, by Multiform from Dreamer (very closely related to Yawn, dam of the Inver-cargill-owned Cough and Thornton), have been sold by Mr J. M. Samson and they were sent to F. Trilford’s .stable at Washdyke last week. At Agua Caliente, the border racing rendezvous where horses from the United States and Mexico meet, and where Maorilanders Phar Lap, Tea Trader and Pillow Fight have of late become known, the betting is conducted under varied systems. Where the totalisator is concerned, a horse may be supported to win, backed to the tune of first and second dividends, or followed under the one, two, three privilege now available in Australasia—the American terms are straight, place (first and second), and show (one, two, three). Investors can also deal with desired bookmakers, and it is understood that on occasions the ringmen hang out better odds than the mechanical wagering apparatus—at the recent Australian J.C. Easter fixture in Sydney the prices

on offer in bookmaking circles on a number of occasions proved more tempting than those paid by the totalisator. It can be understood that the market in America is as often as not puzzling to visitors from outside countries, with the totalisator holding forth three systems of wagering and the bookmakers to a similar extent/

Gallant Sir, the winner of-the Agua Caliente Handicap of the current Reason and the galloper who shattered the ten-furlong track record established by Phar Lap last year, 2.3 3-ssec, reducing it by one-fifth of a second, is known in America as a first-class performer. His success in the Caliente, as it is termed in that far away land, brought his stakes total up to 74,220 dollars, a return of approximately 3 to 1 on the price paid for him at the Saratoga yearling sales, which ran out to 24,000 dollars for a sturdy colt. The favourite from the day the nominations were revealed, Gajlant Sir occupied this proud position to the finish, starting at liberal odds on. Owned by Mr Norman W. Church, his purchaser as a yearling, he is a son of Sir Gallahad 111 from Sun Spot from Sunstar. Like another American crack, Gallant Fox, this year’s winner has also to be credited to Sir Gallahad 111. The short price at which he started,, reflected Gallant Sire’s record, as he had not been out of the money in fourteen starts. The race in the boom days was worth 100,000 dollars, but was sliced to 50,000 for Phar Lap’s test, and it was cut in half again this year to 25,000 dollars.

When Vthe New Zealand-bred two-year-old, Blixten, won. the Fernhill Handicap (one mile) at the recent A.J.C. Easter fixture it was a stern test for the Night Baid—Receipt colt, but he came through the ordeal with flying colours. Beaten in a six furlong youngster event on Sydney Cup day his chance in the eight furlong contest was overlooked and a satisfactory price ruled about the Maoriland-bred youngster up to barrier rise. However, he had followers and stable friends, and it is related that one punter accepted £lOOO to £22 about the Night Raid representative. A check in the straight appeared to put him out of court, but over the last furlong he put in great work to get up and win impressively by a length. He carried topweight of 9.1 and carved out the mile in 1.40? as a pupil of ex-New Zealander, George Price, who prepares him for Mr Smithden (owner of three winning Brazen gallopers, Kuvera, Shakuni and Air Queen) and Mr G. Stannell. FORBURY PARK TROTTING CLUB. SECOND DAY. BELINDA’S SUCCESS. SENSATIONAL DIVIDEND. (Per United Press Association.) Dunedin. May 7. The Forbury Park Trotting Club’s meeting concluded to-day in dull but fine weather. The track was in good order and the attendance large. The winner of the second race paid a sensational dividend, the largest ever seen on the course.

TWO TRACK RECORDS BROKEN. (By Roundabout.) (Special to the Times.) ' Dunedin, May 6. The Forbury Park meeting concluded to-day in fine but cold weather. There was a good attendance and Southland was strongly represented. The track had improved a good deal and was in fast order. A first day’s winner in Olson was a pronounced fancy on both machines for the Tahuna Handicap and his supporters were never anxious. At the start Orphan Bingen made a mistake and Teviot Downs after leaving well went to a bad break, Clipped Wings following suit. Passing the stand Beatrice Bingen led Olson, Coreopsis, Fernice and Gyrate. Coreopsis broke at the mile post and setting out on the final lap Olson had drawn clear from Beatrice Bingen, Gyrate, Orphan Bingen and Paul Bingen. Gyrate ran into second place down the back but had no chance with Olson, who won easing up by eight lengths from Orphan Bingen who finished well to beat Gyrate by two lengths. Beatrice Bingen was a' length away, then Paul Bingen. Times, 3min 34 3-ssec, 3min 38 2-ssec, 3min 33 3-ss'ec.

Olson again outclassed the field and he is a high-class trotter in the making. Orphan Bingen trotted a fine race after his initial mistake and it was a good performance. Paul Bingen made too many mistakes and Teviot Downs and Golden Bingen appeared to be sore. There was a real boil-over in the Royal Handicap, the winner Dolly Derby returning round about a century on the win machine. Lilian Bond and Peter Mitchell made mistakes at the start and passing the stand Whitstone and Chiming Wave led Faneburn and Erin’s Chance. At the two-mile barrier Faneburn broke and commencing the last lap the order was Ruin, Chiming Wave, Erin’s Chance, Dolly Derby and Sure. The two leaders were well clear down the back but it was a good race across the top. Into the straight Chiming Wave led Ruin, Dolly Derby, Sure and Lilian Bond. In a rare set-to home Dolly Derby beat Chiming Wave a head, Ruin one and a-half lengths back, two length ahead of Sure. Then came Guyziah and Lilian Bond Times, 3min 21sec, 3min 22 2-ssec, 3min 22 3-ssec. Dolly Derby deserved her win for she was always nicely placed and stayed on well in a fast run race. Chiming Wave was responsible for a particularly good effort and she was only narrowly beaten after making most of the running. Ruin raced well but had no chance at the finish. Rollicking Wave had every chance but was not good enough. Sea Mist was never prominent. Unlucky on the first day Checkers came into his own in the Pacific Handicap. Erin’s Princess, Suncross and Taxpayer were slow to move and King’s Cup led away from Childe de Oro, Red Spur and Priceless. At the stand Childe de Oro, King's Cup, Priceless, Red Spur, Checkers was the order. It was a good race down the back with the pace full on. Into the straight King’s Cup piloted Childe de Oro, Priceless, Red Spur and Checkers. The finish aroused the public to keen excitement, but Checkers finished very solidly to beat Red Spur by two lengths. Priceless was a long neck away, a head in front of Childe de Oro. Then right up came Automatic and Great Thought. Times, 2min 11 l-ssec, 2min 12sec, 2min 13sec. Checkers was not well placed early but finished very solidly. Red Spur went a whole lot better than on Thursday and showed brilliancy. The race on Thursday improved Priceless, who was always prominent. Sunbloom was early in a rear position and so was Suncross. The Railway Handicap saw the Methven trainer C. McTigue score his second win of the day and his filly Waress won all the way. Highland King and Nelson’s Fortune lost their chances at the start and Waress led out of the straight from Lena Thorpe, King Mac and Just Shandi. This was the order until three furlongs from home, where Lord Leslie made a fast run around the field. Into the straight Waress led Lord Leslie, Golden Direct, Lena Thorpe and Just Shandi. It was a good race home but Waress was always holding her own to beat Lord Leslie by a length and a-half. Just Shandi was a length back, two lengths ahead of Quita. Then followed Golden Direct and Lena Thorpe. ' Times, 3min ssec, 3min 3 1-5 sec, 3min 4 2-ssec. It was a particularly fast run race and Waress took all the honours. The daughter of Man o’ War—lvy Mac led throughout and it was a good performance. Lord Leslie came round the field and in returning 3min 3 l-ssec he broke the track record by 1-5 of a second, a meritorious effort which stamps the four-year-old as a very promising pacer. Young Frank was pulled up after a furlong and a-half. Just Shandi was always well in it and went a fine race. The favourite was not well handled. The James Memorial Handicap was an exciting race and resulted in a very close finish. Gold Tinge skipped at the start and Roddy led away from Harvest Child,Ngingongingo and Todd Lonzia. They raced in this order for a circuit then John Noble ran’ into second place attended by Neeoro. As they entered the final circuit Roddy made play from John Noble, Neeoro, Gold Tinge, Harvest Child and Belinda. Three furlongs from home Belinda moved up fast and Ngingongingo who had dropped back was coming again. Entering the straight Roddy and John Noble had had enough and another keen finish saw Belinda beat Ngingongingo and Gold Tinge who dead-heated by a length. Harvest Child was a length back attended by Roddy and Neeoro. Times, 4min 25 4-ssec, 4min 28sec, 4min 28 l-ssec. It was a fast run race and Belinda must be given credit for a fine effort. She was the best handled in the race. Ngingongingo was squeezed back half way through and got into a bad position but he finished well. Gold Tinge lost ground early but she then went, a particularly good race and was a trifle

unlucky. John Noble and Roddy both stopped badly at the business end. \ . The Ritchie Memorial Handicap saw another' first day’s winner in Lough Guy repeat the dose. Belle Lorrimer broke at the start and passing the stand Lough Guy led Kolmar and Merce Bingen. A little further on Belle Lorrimer ran into third place and they raced in this order to the finish, Lough Guy beating Kolmar by a length, Belle Lorrimer a similar distance away. Times, 3min 24 l-ssec, 3min 22 2-ssec, 3min 23 4-ssec. Lough Guy again won easily and it was an uninteresting contest. Belle Lorrimer showed speed but is not solid. There was keen betting on the Southland Handicap and again a first day’s winner prevailed. Suncross lost all chance and Jolly Wave led away from Denver City and Red Spur. Prairie King made up his handicap smartly and setting out on the final lap the order was Denver City, Prairie King, Red Spur, Jolly Wave, Bay Admiral and Gumdigger. Racing down the ' back Probationer made a fast run and led into the straight from Denver City, Aristotle, Prairie King and Red Spur. Holding her own easily in the run home Probationer beat Checkers by two lengths, Denver City half a length away, a similar distance ahead of Aristotle. Then came Gumdigger, Jolly Wave. Times, 3min 16 4-ssec, 3min 18 3-ssec, 3min 24sec. Probationer put up a really great effort to come around the field and beat them easily. She has improved a great deal. Checkers again raced well and so did Denver City. Aristotle will improve shortly. It looked as if too much use was made of Prairie King. The, time was a track record. The favourites for the Farewell Handicap were well beaten the winner turning up in the little-fancied Tactless who had lost his chance at the start on the first day. Tempest broke up at the start and Harvest Child led away from Editor- and Tactless. Down the back Editor took up the running and setting out for the final circuit Editor led Harvest Child, Tactless and Morning Sun. Three furlongs from home Morning Sun ran. into second place attended by Harvest Child, Roddy and Tactless. Into the straight the order was practically the same but in the run home Tactless finished strongly to win nicely from Roddy, with Morning Sun third, then Editor, Belinda, and Harvest Child. Tactless won easily after always being well placed. Roddy went a good race and so did Morning Sun. Sir Guy disappointed. Editor again failed to stay. EGMONT RACING CLUB. CONCLUDING DAY. FINE ACRE WINS STEEPLECHASE. (Per United Press Association.) Hawcra. May 6. The Egmont Winter meeting was concluded in showery weather before a good attendance. The track was soft. The totalisator handled £5,561 10/compared with £5,137 on the second day last year. The total for the two clays, £1'1,752 10/-, was £1,295 10/— ahead of last year’s total, £10,458.
