RACING AND TROTTING .

(By ARGT7S). All Britvah wfl.g scratched, for all enjHg<?menta at the Canterbury Jockey GLub* Autumn meeting at 10.20 a.m. to-day. Acceptances for the first day of the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting; Club's Faster meeting will at noon to-morrow. Nominations for the .South Canterbury .Jockey Club's Autumn meeting will close to-morrow uight.

The pocket edition of the New Zea. land Turf Register, covering the se

cond portion of ibe present season, has been published by the Christchurch Press Company at a very * opportune

time. Tt contains the results of all meetings held in the Dominion from December 10 to April 1. As usual, the results of raeing and trotting events arc. given in separate sections, each with its own index, ancl the little volume should be very popular with followers of the two sports, who will be able to Veep abreast of the latest form of horges who are. to compete at important meetings ahead Air A FT NoaJl. well-known on nil the racing and trotting courses of Christchurch and surrounding districts, as an efficient clerk r*f the scales, had his first experience as a secretary on Saturday, when he successfully piloted the Horarata Racing Club through one of the most successful meetings in its history. Afr P. P. M’.Nab acted a? starter at the Hororata meeting on Saturday. ID* was working under difficulties, aa he had no barrier to help him. having to line the horses up to a piece of string stretched across the course. With the exception of the Trial Plate, however, the fields were despatched in excellent order, and with very little delay. The Horotara course is. now railed all the wav round, an improvement which came in for very favourable comment on Saturday. \n important altera.tion at. the Hororata. meeting nn Saturday had to do with the disposition of motor cars. They were lined up in a special motor paddock. an arrangement which vas greatly appreciated by the public, as in the past, when they were allowed to take, up positions along the inside rail, the cars interrupted the view.

After the Hororata Cup on Saturday, the trophy which accompanied the stake vas handed over in front of the grandstand. Mr H. Oliver said the cup was the gift of the president. Mr FT A. Knight, and he hoped that other members of the Club, who were in. a position to do so, would follow Mr Knight’s example in future years. Airs Knight t hen handed over the cup to Some Kid'? owner, Afr F. S. Rutherford, who briefly returned thanks.

In the Trial Plate at Hororata on Saturday, Gay Life was going well ap proaching the home turn, when she got a hump. She had a narrow escape from falling and the mishap complete!v spoilt any chanoe she. might have bad.

Some Kid was responsible for n good performance in winning the Hororata. lup on Saturday. He was always up near the front and in spite of his big load he. finished on very strongly. It was liis first wiii'Sayer a mile and ,i quarter, but from the style in which he accomplished his task, he should •score furthov over a journey, in even better- company.

Bandy and Tndwr, who paid big dividends when they won at Hororata on Saturday, had been racing without success for a long time. Indus had not won since the autumn of 1919. when ho scored in a, welter at South Canterbury, while it was about five months earlier when Bandy captured a double at Afethven. - The Bangor Handicap, the opening event at Hororata on Saturday, was specially provided for jumping jockeys. There was a shortage of suitable horsemen, however, and F\ C. 'Porter bad the mount on the winner, Bandy, who bad to carry a 101 b penalty as provided for in the Rules of Racing. Balefire, the winner of the Trial Plate a: Hororata on Saturday, i* a brother to the Auckland Cup winner. Fiery < ross. by Glenapp— Rod Cross, be Son of a Gun from Caritas. so that she traces to Mermaid. through the Traducer mare. Malice. who is also the ancestress of The Dunce, winner of the Manawatu Sires* Produce Stakes. 1 hough described as a four year old. Balefire is a year older, having been i oaled in 1916. This was Balefire’s first success, hut it was freely anticipated. in view of his performance at Ihe Cheviot meeting, a fortnight earlier. when he finished third in a similar event. Dame Fortune finished second to St. Easel in the- Trial Plate at Hororata n year ago. On Saturday she was second to Balefire in the same event, wh(le later in the day she filled a, similar position behind T'nio in the Haldou Hack Handicap. Of the six starters for the Haldon Hack Handicap, the concluding event at Hororata on Saturday, five had competed in other events in the day. Tho only fresh horse in the field was Unio. who led all the way and never looked like being beaten. Hrgb Heels, who won the Amberley Cup very decisively a week earlier, was not. in a galloping mood on Saturday, when she was at the tail of the field in the Hororata Chip from start to finish. MaJvolia fell and broke a leg while competing in the Haldon Hack Handicap at Hororata. on Saturday and she rw shot Sh* was an aged mar# l bv Menchilsoff from the Australian-bred Nar.fe a daughter of the Melbourne Cup winner, Malvolio. Foo Chow Palestrina, and Mythology were. associated in a spin over seven furlongs at R.iccarton on Saturday. Mythology being badly beaten by the other pan, who finished together, Foo Ch'-w war. going better than Palestrina at the end, hut he appeared to have an advantage in the-w*ughts and it was n ven satisfactory performance, on the part of both horses- They are both well and there should not. he much between them in the Great Autumn Handicap

| There was a large attendance at the ) dispersal sale of Afr Goring Johnston's} I Highden stud, which was held on Filj day. The best lots realised satisfactory J prices. Mr L. A. Crawford gave -100 j guineas for a brown yearling gelding i by Kilbrouey—Nierene. and a yearling colt, by Panmure from Adelicin. the darn of Warplane, was taken by Mr C. F. Elgar at 325 guineas. Airs Walter Johnston was at the ringside and old associations no doubt influenced her in buying the brood mare Ermengarde bv Charlemagne ll—Watershoot, for 300 guineas. T'op price among the brood mares was 460 guineas. which Sir George Clifford paid for imported ReveIcnta, by Troutbeck from Panacea, the clam of Pan mure. Afr- P. Hall paid 280 guineas for Adelicia. by Charlemagne TT- Angele, and Cherrv AT art, by Birkenhead—Martin, was secured bv Afr G. M. Currie for 140 guineas. Mr AT . R. Keroball, who is forming a stud at Masterton. purchased several lots, including Troth (Demosthenes-—Truce), for 160 guineas, AT a reel inc- (ATartian Truce) 135 guineas, Blighty (Kilbroney Armilla) 55 guineas. Overall (Boniform Bloomer) 80 guineas, and Ortygia (Birkenhead—-Arethusa) 55 guineas. Several of the matrons failed to elicit, a bid- Alt- Guy Johnston gave 150 guineas for a filly foal bv Martian- Revclaiita. Three sires were submitted, but. none of them found a purchaser. There wore two or three after AA'arplane. but none went to the owner’s price (500 guineas), while imported Panmure failed to elicit a bid.

HOROfIATA RACES,

A S E CESSFT 1, A ILETT NG. The Hororata Racing Club was fav- ! ourcd with fine, weather for Saturday’s ‘ meeting. The morning was foggy hut j the Bnu broke through later and slnyie brightly throughout tlic afternoon. , There was a. large attendance, a big , conringeui of Christchurch sportsmen journeying out by road, while the. local j enthusiasts mustered in strong force, j The club, which is one of the oldest in ; Canterbury, has had its share of vieis- ! sitwdes, hut in recent years its incet- ! ings have been very successful, and Saturday's must rank as one of the host m its history. The new secretary. Air A. H. Noall, had all hisarra ngoTiicn + s well in hand and with an energetic body of stewards the fixture ran along very smoothly. The course, has been greatlv improved by being fenced i all the way round. T here are a few other directions in which the appointments require attention, hut they will doubtless bo attended to later, though the heavy Government taxation is a serious obstacle to country clubs which desire to bring their courses up to date. Financially, Saturday s meeting should turn out well, as the receipts from nil sources were ahead of last | year's figures. Proceedings opened with the Bangor | Jumpers' Flat Handicap. Likelihood was a little better backed than Vice- ! Regal aiyrl Raconteur, but all three j went down before Bandy, who led all ! the way and won easily. Bandy, an aged gelding hr Sarto. ! was a useful galloper earlier in his car- ! eer, but lie has been unsound for a. ! long time and is apparently just coming back again. Likelihood ran another sound rare j and he looks like a. good prospect lor jumping events during the winter. Indus finished well to beat Racon- ; teur. who lines not turned out so good i as was hoped. ! Vice-Regal never looked dangerous and ho can he written out in the nienn- | time. In a field of fourteen for the Trial Plate. Dame Fortune, Quarrelsome and ! Balefiro were fancied in that order. The start was unfortunate. Balefire began smartly and was in front all the way, winning easilj’ from Dame Fortune, with Sweetwater and Quarrelsome at the head- of the others. Balefire, a five-year-old brother to Fiery Cross, has come to hand slowly, but he can be expected to improve and 1 he may win further honours before the I end of the season. Dame Fortune showed plenty of | speed, but ihi* unlucky filly does not j stay well. > Sweetwater, a four-year-old by Sunny Lake from Apbaea, a member of : the well-known Otago family tracing ! to Lady Gertrude, ran figr best race ■ to date. Quarrelsome was one of the unlucky ! one# at the start but lie was running ! on strongly at the end. Gay Life was going well till she met i n itli interference, while Xyamsa and ! Knraitei. after being prominent 1o the j home turn, faded out badlv. *<* There were live stcarters for the Tloroi 'ata Cup, Gamecock being a betj ter favourite than High Heels, with Homo Kid a fair third choice. Some ! Kid was always one of the leaders and jhe won easily from Gamecock. with i Nautical close up third. / Some Kid has done* most of his raci ing over short courses but he stayed out the. mile and a quarter in fine style, j Gamecock ran a genuine race and he • should be dangerous among tbe liurd- ] lers later on. Nautical shaped better than for some ’ time past, bin High Heels went badly; 1 being last all the way. The Brackendale Handicap attracted a nomination of only Jive, but they all went to the post. -Madam Chiron was favourite, with Pyjama a bit better backed than Kilraue. It was not au exciting race. Kiliano headed Pyjama at the end of a furlong and led to the turn, where be stopped, leaving Pyjama to win easily Horn Madam Chiron, while Nautical cut Kilfane out of third ; money. Pyjama was always going well, and bis easy win, under a. big weight, provided evidence of what a great little horse he is on a small course, in moderate company. Madam Chiron ran one of her usual consistent runs, but Kilfane cannot Floratius. Kingbolt, Cattacb and Regal were all well backed, in that order. | for ihe f oalgate Welter Handicap, to | which the field numbered eight. (',-n. j tacli led Lord Leslie. Vice Regal and • Kingbolt in the early rtages. On reachj ing the -treight- Horatius took, charge • but the little thought, of Indus wore ' hire down and won easily, while Paeon { teur stayed on to beat A ire for | third place. Indus was at on-© stage regarded as n useful customer, but be has been rae- , ing badly for a long time part Horatius improved on his recent form, and there is hope lor him as a winner yet. Raconteur shaped much better ‘ban • iri his earlier effort. Lord Leslie only lasted about half mile, while ( attach and Kingbolt I'arlcd out badly over the last nit.

There were six starters for the Hald*»i Hack Handicap, five of them siaki»& a second appearance. Unio, th<? only fresh horse, was favourite, and he never looked like being beaten. Unio, who is a three year-old by Boniform, is a smart galloper, who can be placed to win plenty of races*. Madam Fortune, as usual, showed pace, and stayed on better than Kilia ne. The Glendore Trot Handicap drew a field of sixteen, Chonbra. Alacson and Grand Denver being better backed than the bracketed Plain Bill and George Grafton. while Turmoil also claimed plenty of admirers. There was a good contest between half a dozen horses for half the journey, but they strung out over the last part. Alistress winning comfortably from Turmoil, with Fireman in third place, followed by Macson. Bright Bell and Plain Bill. The winner, who hails from the Rakaia district, is an aged mare by l.ortf Chancellor, and is only a lair sort, with small prospect of improving. Turmoil, a. winner at Amberley, went a decent race, but did not show any special speed. Fireman was always in a fair position and went steadily all the way. Alacson was going well up to three furlongs from home, when he left his foot, and settled his chance. There were twenty-two starters for the. Snowdon Trot Handica/p, and hackers again entrusted Rafferty with their confidence, the Kogan Pointer gelding carrying about, twice as much money as Drambiji. who was a little better hacked than Alacson and Turmoil. Before going far Alacson was in front and lie stayed there to the end, winning nicely. There was a. great finish for second place. Satin Princess just lasting long enough to heal. Turmoil by a bead, with Rafferty another head away. Alacson, who is in E. C. AT’Dermot-t’s stable, went much better iti harness than he did in saddle earlier in the day. He is an aged gelding by Genera] .Mar and he should be capable of furthejr improvement. Satin Princess paced a sound rn.ee all the way and she may get among the winners before long. Turmoil went solidly till near the finish, but. she was on a break at the post. It was easily her best race to date. Rafferty began, a trifle slowly and even iVbcn he got going he failed to show tlvc speed with w Inch lie has been credited.

MANAWATU RACES,

SECOND DAT. (Special to the “ Star ”) PALMERSTON NORTH. April 8. There was again some splendid racing on the second day of the Alanawatu meeting,. Tainatete scored, an easy win in the Alanawatu Stakes, leading all the way. He was not at his host either, as he had had a couple of tc ‘tli pulled arid bis jaw was much swollen. Winning Hit was last when half the distance had been covered, with Thespian just in front of him. These two finished very fast and got into the places. ft looked as if Thespian would have made things interesting had he been kept closer up in the earlier stages. ATireusoma was in a good position at Iho bottom of ihe straight and drew up to Tama tele, but the later soon shook him off. For the opening event, the Ava Handicap, the eight acceptors all went to the post. All Cerise was. sent out a strong favourite, hut she did not get a place. the threc-year-old daughter of Alnrtian and Toriulla., scoring in good style from Pantler, who got through on the rails luckily. Satin was third and Aferrv Queen fourth. There were only five starters in the Kairanga Hurdle Handicap. No Bother being a strong favourite, though there was solid hacking for ALmiahera. V\ amba made the pace very warm but No Bother was always handy and the pair turned lor home on even terms. No Bother then drew away and won I nicely. It was a fast run race, the | mile and three-quarters being cut out l in3m in 11 sec. Goldscene toppled j «ver after going six furlongs. and I Bracken, his rider, had a nasty spill. ; He broke his nose and injured a knee j ‘-ap. Warn ha jumped beautifully j most of the way I frapukn and Backsheesh were withfrom the Stony hu rst Welter ; Handicap, leaving thirteen starters, of whom Jovial was entrusted with most money, Zercan being second favourite. Cold Steel .and Alustard Pot got going quickly and led for a count- of fuo longs, when American Beauty and Cold Steel held command. Going round the bend Kuia closed up and Little River also moved lorward, hut was chopped out. A merman Beauty was first, iulo the straight from Kuia. but Jovial and Aliisi;,rd Rot came fast, a great finish | resulting in a win for Jovial by a head i from Alustard Rot, while Littio 'River, coming very fast, got up third, a neck ■ iurlhor a wav, American Beaut v - bciim i fourth. , lii'- field h»r the ALinawatu ri’takcs j was reduced to .six and Taniatete was | the popular fancy, carrying over Mvire as much money as AVinning Hit. Winning Hit and Alireusonta broke the tapes once, hut Ihe field gut away well in line, the first to break which was Taniatete. who led down the hack stretch from Alireusonta ami Silver l ink, with AA’inning Hit last. At'the bend Alireusonta drew up to Tamatete and the pair were together in front entering the straight. Here the favourite drew out and won easily, stalling off a challenge by Thespian, w ho made up a lot of. ground over the last two furlongs. AVinning Hit finished very fast and v.as a good third, with Alireusonta fourth. The eleven acceptors were all saddled up lor the Nursery Handicap. Rapine carried tho hulk of the money, though King's Trumpeter was also well hacked. Ad Astra marie the early running and led into the straight, where the favourite closed up and look charge at the ! distance, going on to win nicely from 1 T\ illashamlra. with Bonnie Nurse dose j up third and Ad Astra fourth. !

SOUTHLAND RACES

SECOND DAT. (Special to the “ Star-") INVERCARGILL, April 8. The weather was fine for the concluding day of the Southland autumn meeting. There was a largely increased attendance and improved totalisator investments. Following on a big shrinkage on the first day, the figures showed a. decrease of only £8460 10s for the fixture. -- In the opening event, the Myross f AA'elter Handicap, the well-known AA in- ■ ton sportsman. Air AA'. Swale, secured j a long overdue win with Calibration. Ho i? a useful three-year-old, who is j now in excellent- racing condition and is likely to win again in the near future. He was attended home by Sol- ’ dier's Pride, probably the best sou of Soldiers’ Chorus bred and raced in the South with the excepting of Marching Order. Kerb, wlio was a. warm favourite. was made rather much use. of and i faded out in the run home, when load- ; ing inside the distance. 'I lie. New River Hornes? Trot pro- , duced a good race, the three-year-old j Adonis-—Satinwork gelding, Donside, stopping out boldly to stall off a challenge by Lenamhor in the run home. The winner, who captured the first Southland Juvenile Stakes at Gore, paced the two miles in 4min 49see on a, dead track, while the runner-up finished in -1 min 4 7 2-ssec. His connections w ere confident of the ability of I Donside to win and they supported him accordingly. Gladiola. who was third, finished some distance away in 4min 50 l-sse< . the best form she has dis- j played for a long time past. The English mare Glentruin was again heavily supported for the open sprint, event, the President s Handicap, but she was evidently troubled by her race on the previous day and she had to strike her colours to Mantua, who ran a better race than on the opening day. Killowen showed improved form in the hands of C. Emerson and filled third place, after leading for the greater part of -Qu> way. General Advance, the best all-round horse in the South, finished close up fourth. It is evident that he is not far off his best form as he was gathering the sprinters up fast at the finish. Among the lookers-on at the. Invercargill Steeplechase was J. T. Humphries, who got a nasty fall when riding Silverspire on the previous day. He was not quite well enough to ride today but he will soon be in his usual state of health again. Zarkoma was elected a strong favourite and he duly landed the odds laid on him, coming home by himself, hut he was doing his best when Somerset fell when on terms with him five furlongs from home. Somerset was remounted and finished second, two other opponents having disappeared by the way, while Pal- ; Indio was too far awav to be dangerous. Zarkoma looks like being verv hard to boat between the flags at the Riverton Easter gathering. The Gisborne chaser. Juan, gave a fine display of fencing ability over the first round hut he tired and fell with a mile lo go. Glcnisla. came to grief at the same fence. The respective riders, O'Connor and AFAlullan. were unhurt. The public recognised that Bonnie inkie had been made a present of the principal event by the bandieapper and backed him accordingly. He ran more hke a seasoned performer, his boring tactics being only slightly in evidence and lie had no difficulty in winning from Tin Soldier. Silent King and Tforke’s l>rifi, wlio finished in verv j close order, four lengths awav. There j is no doubt that- liis two races here will \ ( greatly benefit the Winkie gelding, 1 who will next be seen out at Riccarton. j • o is a particularly good winded horse, ! with very resolute action and it is | quite on the cards that he will play a [ prominent part in the race for the ' (ircat Autumn Handicap. The three | oilier starters are in excellent shape | and there is every chance that tliev "ill secure the best share of the big I money at Riverton.
