(By

"Hurry On.”)

The heavy track at Trentham did not ruit Crjcket Bat, but despite this he ■went two good races and on the firmer going at Riccarton he should be able to do better next month. Sir .Charles Cliffords filly Fracas won the second day at Trentham in good •tyle, and many expect her to prove Red Manfred’s most dangerous opponent in the ‘Welcome Stakes at Riccarton. . The boom for Baroscope is now over. Excuses were made for him at Avondale on the grounds that he was a poor traveller, but he failed again on Monday after having every chance. He was tost plodding along in fourth place at the finish, and never looked likely in the straight. In allotting her 8.1 in the Mitchelson Cup and 5.9 in the Flying Handicap-the Auckland handicapper has issued a distinct invitation to Korokio to go north Instead of to Riccarton next week, t This mare as very well at present' and is Improving all the time. " ‘ " It is reported from Auckland that K. N. Wiggins was offered the ride bn Eavering in the Melbourne Chip, but'de-. Aired to 1 make another trip across the' Tasman. According to the cables' A. Reed will now have the mount? Reed was second on Silvius to TriValve.' IPrincess Doreen went down to Tren ; iham with a big reputation, but she' lame home' with only the pieces of it left. Nevertheless it may be unwise to condemn the Chief Ruler filly too >oon. On a dry track there may be mother tale to tell. Prior to the Wellington meeting K. Voitre had a good lead in the jockeys’ premiership but he failed to ride a winner at Trentham and L; J; Ellis, wh'o saluted the judge no fewer than five times, is now only one behind him. 'Ellis is riding in great form at present and looks like giving ' Voitre a keen contest for the top this season. Protoanint has paid very dearly for his two successes in open company, for to the Mitchelson Cup he has been •warded 8.13, only Antique and Hunting Cry being above him. He is asked to Concede weight to View; Halloo, Gibraltar and Korokio. . The Auckland horseman F. Foster, Who ■ was disqualified as a result of the Royal Survey incident, has again been* granted a license and will fie seen in action at Ellerslie on November 3. (Foster is a very capable horseman both ©ver hurdles and on the flat, among 'his most notable successes being" the A.R.C- Easter Handicap on Hunting Cry •nd the Great Northern Steeplechase on JUralla.

'• Drumfire scored his first success when {>• iron the Rimutaka Handicap on Sat®rday. He did not go out particularly well, but soon ran up to a good position. When the straight was reached lhe had to meet several strong challengee, but, he was equal•to all demands, staying on in fine style. It was <*B impressive performance, and if he escapes a recurrence of his knee trouble he will win in much better company. ■He may even prove a useful Derby Merry Way found the seven furlong journey in the Wilson Highweight at •Waver ley on Monday too far, but made ! * much better showing in the five furlongs event, where but for running- very bride in the straight she would certainly have paid a dividend. She is' looking (much improved and more solid than she •did. last season. i Dole, the winner of the Taita Handiloap at Trentham on Saturday, is by Paper Money from* Ebba, the dam of Teastream, who showed some promise last season, but was not raced much. X Dole cost 75 guineas as a yearling. He has brilliant speed, but has not ' done much fast work. H. Telford having realised that, like others of the Paper Money breed, he is a natural galloper who does not require a hard preparation. Red Manfred is (Good. > •When he paraded for the 'Debutante Stakes at Wanganui Red Manfred attracted quite a lot of attention, but foa gave the impression on that occasion (that he would take time tb come good. [Evidently he has developed more' quickly than was expected, for 3>is trainer, JF. D&vis, made no secret of the fact that he expected him to win the Wellesley Stakes. His performance 'there [was very impressive, and a good judge informed the writer that he will be surprised if the son ; , of Manfred gets beaten again this season. His sire was ' iprobaly the most brilliant three-year-old that the Australian turf ever saw, and his sensational win in the.A.J.C. ' Derby after, being left ; l2o yards "at-the post is always remembered when the Raiidwick classic comes up for discus- ' sion. F. Davis, who has charge of the promising youngster, was the trainer of Desert Gold, Estland, Bobrikoff, Finmark and company. Bed Shank, the dam of Red Manfred, is by Thrice (son of The Welkin) from Red Streak, by Wallace from Elsie, an imported St. Simon,mare. Red Manfred, though bred by the Victorian owner Mr. E. M. Pearce, was reared at Mr. H. M. Reeve’s Hororata Stud, Canterbury, his dam having been sent over to be mated with Dominion stallion. The youngster brought 200 guineas when sold as a {yearling at Trentham. •A Much-needed Reform.

.It ia getting something of a habit . tor the little-fancied horse to win over (the heavily-backed stablemate, and it ft* one of the most difficult things to (overcome, writes “Rangatira” in the Wellington Post. Also is it difficult to (find sound reasons why horses from the tone stable should not be bracketed, as is done in trotting. It is this that assists the harness sport in its popularity. An instance of this kind was Recorded at Avondale on the second day, when one stable supplied the first ftund second horses to' finish. They were Gay Sheila and Star Artist, both trained at Takanini by P. E. Pope, and. the (youngsters are in different ownership. Star Artist had run third to Princess (Doreen and Gipsy Love in the Avondale Stakes, and on the. strength of this . auspicious debit she was made a little better than even money favourite, while • (her etablemate was neglected in the . betting. The actual figures were: Star . Artist £4'614, Gay Sheila £6-1. 'While Star ■ -’Artist was third in the Avondale Stakes Gay Sheila was sixth, but she was not very far behind her stable companion in that event, after being well ■ back at the home turn. On the second day Dinelli set. a warm pace from the barrier, but a furlong from home she (stopped to a walk. Then Gay Sheila hit the front and over the last little bit Star Artist challenged, but failed 'by three-parts of a length to reach Gay ISheila. The backers of the latter received a dividend of well on to.a score, (while financial followers of the favour- . Ste lost money on their investment. In this race at least it would have been ©f greater benefit to the club had these two -horses ben bracketed. As it w-as, |ust over £lOOO 'Went into the pockets

'of very few people, while backers of the favourite received back less than t£34o. SPRING RACING AT AUCKLAND. HANDICAPS FOR FIRST DAY.
