From the Track

On the Tracks Again The five-year-old mare Restaurant has made a reappearance at Ellerslie under the direction of W. Gall. In the early spring she was accorded treatment for a short period until she went amiss, but hopes are now* entertained j that the daughter of Romeo will surj vive a preparation. At Matamata | L. Dulieu has engagements on Taumai and St. Warrigal at Matamata on Saturday, and it is probable that E. Ludlow will ride the promising Bells of Shandon. Taranaki Rides The Auckland light-weight jockey, H. Wiggins, has made the following i engagements for the Taranaki fixture on Thursday:—Rose Lupin. Perennis, Dolomite, Hopwood and Kawhakina. Following on Taranaki Wiggins will attend the Wanganui meeting. Under New Trainer The Ellerslie trainer, 11. Jury, lias decided to forgo his trainer's licence for a period, and the two-year-old under his charge, Karangapai, has been handed over to J. Chisholm. Karangapai, a son of Peach Brandy and Star Attraction, made his turf debut on the first day at Takapuna. where he raced satisfactorily without drawing attention to his future prospects. He is a nice youngster, however. and later on may be expected to play his part right well. Leaving for Taranaki !
