High Pitch showed signs of returning to form in running fourth in the Te Aroha Cup on Saturday last, but needs just something more than he is getting in the way of preparation to put on the finishing touch.

Snow Prince looks in good heart, and may' be heard of at Paeroa.

•Awamutu, after a third on Saturday, stayed on better and "landed the mustard" on Monday. It's about- time, too! ,

Eager Rose won the double strictly on her merits, and it will take a few more pounds of weight to stop her yet a while.

Lucky Alice will ke"Sp.

Crown Arch is no world-beater.

Crimestor looks as if a spell would do him no harm.

Transformer galloped unkindly, and is getting more, moody than ever. He probably needs a spell.

Princess Snow looks well, and may pick up a stake, say, down Tauranga or Whakatane way.

Mosaic did not look quite ready.

.King Emerald got a bad passage on Saturday, but on Monday ran up into fourth berth. A country cup for him later on, perhaps.

Master Latour is very. "iffy."

Tetraehate sprung a surprise, but has fair form to recommend him. It's the last time he will go out paying a figure, though. Quinsilia would keep a Mint poor, and make an archbishop swear! He can catch swallows on the track,' Jt>ut seems to lose all,form when the colours are up. One of these days he'll crack it. and there'll be another Wairoa Belle dividend —and more explanations from "the heads" as to why they didn't back it.

Honiton went out too heavily backed in the Shaftesbury Hack, 6 fur. and 52 yards, to run better than fourth. The weight of money must have stopped her, for she had every chance and could only> finish fourth.

Abbess disappointed

Roman Pearl has not been too kind to backers, but some day her turn will come.

iCurrajong is. coming right again after a spell of outs. . • Acts well in the wet.

Patere has gone for good. Perhaps it is for the best, since backers have followed him to rather an expensive tune. iStill, it is poor consolation for "Dorrie" Winder, who has spent a riot of time with the Quin Abbey gelding.

Arihana will soon go into retirement for the winter.

Wild Country is another of the Rama hapu, and will pay his way later.

•Valstreet, despite the services of Hector Gray, could do no < good.'

The Sun forgot to shine and was left at the post. ' He is only fast for a few furlongs, and is a halfbrother to that good mare, Uraila. He should stay better as age *ones on. ' I

Leitrim has furnished out into a real racehorse, and will pick up some decent stakes yet.

British King's turn will come.

Kingifield sprung a hefty surprise and seems as good as ever; 1.17 is useful time for second time up, and over 6 fur. and 52 yards.

Marble King was tenth favourite —and ran like it.

Lucy Rose will improve on her second and third.

Envoy/ with a fourth and a win, showed that he is coming good once more. - -

Takutama looks as if a spell is coming very.soon.

Town Bird cannot stay.

Luminary was backed and beaten.

Value will win on the circuit. White Ringlet, after bolting \\ miles, was prominent on Saturday until the entrance to the straight, but died away,' naturally. On the second day she did no good. She will return a profit before the circuit ends.

Romford looks gross and needs racing. He will do well over 7 fur. longs this autumn if what "Canard" wasftold is correct. He has changed his trainer, and did not hop out with his usual brilliance. ;
