Alter a short let-up Tresham has resumed work in the best condition. The H.B. Cup 1 winner is to be afforded a nomination in the next New Zealand Cup. * * * Red Fuchsia has no more than his due in the big hurdle events at Trentham, hut he is no certain starter, as Mr Vallance is most anxious to’win the Grand National Hurdles. Peneus may he the Trentham horse. * * * Kilmezzo, who went wrong some time hack, is in D. Kemp’s stable after a long spell in the paddock. The Kilhrouey gelding is now apparently as sound as the day he was foaled, says the Tribune. * * 9 Locauo was purchased by Mr F. Armstrong for a jumper, and he will be retained for that department. In winning so well in his recent two starts was some performance for a hunter, and it is in hunters’ races he will compete in at the Grand National meeting. The Elysian gelding has ont yet competed in a hurdle race, hut on the track is a most proficient! jumper. * * * The Stratford-owned Radiate has been nominated for the minor steeplechases at the Grand National meeting at Riccarton next month. * * * Aherfeldy is reported to be schooling well over the sticks at Riccarton. * * * No Response registered a pleasing display over the sticks at Riccarton last Thursday. -* * * Decoy Bird is doing good work on the tracks at Trentham. * * *

At Ashburton on Saturday A. E. Ellis had a run of bad luck. He lost a stirrup at the start of the Moreton Hack in which he was riding the favourite, Waihenoe. He had a similar experience with Town Bank, who was second favourite in the Mayfield Handicap. The mishaps occurred with different saddles. * * * Mr H. Rothery stated on Saturday that Glendowie will not keep his engagements at Trentham. >* * * S. Henderson will Tide Beau Cavalier in the Wellington Steeplechase and Winter Hurdles. * * * The Riccarton trainer, H. Nurse, started a horse in each of the galloping events at Ashburton on Saturday, aud they raced very consistently,' none of them being further back’ than second. Chickwheat won the chief event on the flat, while laglhtheaTted, Greyfinch, Oriflamb and Lancer each filled second place. * * * Hollycorabe who, after such a short time in work did well to win the Hunt Cup Steeples at Hastings, is not to be overtaxed this season. If the present programme is adhered to he will not be raced, again until Labour Day next, when he will contest the Waikato (Hunt Club Steeples. Next season may find Mr W. A. Tod’s six-year-old doing iiis owner credit in open company.
