Acceptances for the first day of the Geraldine Racing Club’s meeting will close at eight o’clock to-night.

* * * * In connection with the Geraldine races this week, the Railway Department announces that on Thursday (the first day of the meeting), passengers from intermediate stations between Christchurch and Ashburton (other than Rakaia) must travel by the usual 7.10 am. train from Christchurch and join the Christchurch-Dunedin express at Ashburton. For the return journey, the Dunedin-Christchurch express train, which leaves Orari at 5.11 p.m., will take passengers for Ashburton, Rakaia and Christchurch. On Friday (the second day of the meeting), a special passengert rain for Orari will leave Christchurch at 8.30 a.m., Rakaia 9.55, Ashburton 10.38, and arrive Orari 11.35. It will stop if required at Rakaia, Chertsey, Ashburton, Tinwald, Winslow, Hinds and Ealing to pick up passengers for Orari. The return special passenger train will leave Orari at 5.40 pm., Ashburton 7.7 pm., and arrive Christchurch 8.50 p.m. It will stop if required at Ealing, Hinds, MV inslow, Tinwald, Ashburton, Chertsey, Rakaia, Dunsandel, Rolleston, Templeton, Hornby, Sockburn and Addington to set down passengers.

Indications point to the fields being large at the Geraldine meeting this meek, and as a number of horses will make their first appearance for the new season, the racing should be of special interest.

Money Order will be a starter in the sprint event on the first day of the Geraldine meeting this week and will be ridden by C. Emerson. The brilliant Paper Money gelding has not had a race since last spring and in the interval he has been operated on for throat trouble. Whether it will enable him to run out six furlongs solidly remains to be seen, but in the meantime all that has been demonstrated in his track work is that he retains his

Leader appears to have been a trifle unlucky in his first race at Avondale, while he ran a good race in the open sprint event on the second day of the meeting. He should win his share of races this season, though he has done nothing yet to suggest that he is up to classic form. * * * Last year’s Auckland Cup winner, Corinax, is getting through a steady preparation at Ellerslie and will have his first race this season at the Auckland spring meeting. The Magpie gelding is said to be in great condition to undergo a solid preparation. * * * * The committee of the North Canterbury Racing Club met on Friday evening, when arrangements for the meeting on Labour Day were discussed. It was reported that the grounds were in good order and the new grandstand well on the way towards completion. Mr W. Cunningham was elected a life member of the club, and one new member was also elected. * * * * Pink Coat is booked for a trip to Auckland next month, to take part in the Great Northern Guineas, and if he comes through that engagement all right he will look a great Derby prospect. It is probable that Pink Coat will be left in the Dunedin Guineas, and he may be brought south immediately after the Auckland race to compete at Wingatui a week later. * * * * The speedy sprinter, Caterpillar, did not race up to her best form at Ashburton. She did not begin so smartly as usual and she never got into the picture. There is no need to condemn her for one failure. She has been galloping well lately and she should show improved form very soon. # # jk * Among the unplaced lot in the Longbeach Handicap at Ashburton was the three-year-old Aladdin, from F. Christmas’s stable. He has grown into a very big horse, who looks an ideal sort to make a weight-carrying steeplechaser later in his career. Up to the present he has not been hurried, but he possesses a good turn of speed and he will belie his appearance if he fails to win races later in the season. He is by Hunting Song from Etoile d’Or, by Polydamon from Perle d’Or, a sister to Golden Slipper, by Multiform from Aura, so that he is well enough bred to win in any company and over any distance. * * * * The Waiau Racing Club has received a permit to hold its annual race meeting on New Year’s Day. * * * • Pyne, Gould, Guinness, Ltd., report having effected the sale on account cf Mr J. H. Grigg, Longbeach, of the grey mare, Yellowhammer, with a colt foal at foot by Night Raid, to the Orari studmaster, Mr G. A. Kain. Yellowhammer was bred by Mr Frank Armstrong, and is by Mira from Yellow Bird, dam of Yellow and Black, and half-sister to Halberdier, winner of the New Zealand Cup. * * • ♦ The Dunedin owner, Mr J. M. Samson, may return to the Dominion before long from his English trip, and in preparation for that event a few of his horses have been put into work. Two of them raced at Ashburton on Saturday, Colonel Quex competing in the Fairfield Hack Handicap and Rosy Morn in the Trial Plate. Colonel Quex, a three-year-old, did a lot of racing last season without showing any form. Rosy Morn was making her first appearance on Saturday, and incidentally she was the first two-yearold to race in the South Island. She is by Hunting Song from Sanguinaria, by Merry Moment from Sanguinary, among whose progeny Royal Blood was the best. In addition to the horses he has in training here, Mr Samson has made some purchases in England, and two colts and a filly are due here shortly, when they will be taken over by F. and A. Trilford, who will train the importations at Washdyke.

The Auckland three-year-old, Eaglet, has a great record this season. She started off by winning a sprint handicap at Marton, and the following week captured the Wanganui Guineas, alter which she returned home, to win the sprint handicap at Avondale on Saturday and the Guineas yesterday. There is no room to doubt her brilliancy, and she will be a worthy opponent for Pink Coat in the Great Northern Guineas next month. There will be plenty of South Islanders, however, ready to support the South Canterbury colt. * * * *

Royal Ruler, the winner of the Nursery Handicap at Avondale yesterday, is by Chief Ruler from Bay Doll, an Australian-bred mare by Bobadil from Sessa, by Wallace from Campania, who was at the stud in Auckland, where her progeny included Miss Delaval and Master Delaval, two first-class performers of their day. * * * * Orapai, who filled second place in the Nursery Handicap at Avondale yesterday, is by Thespian, one of Absurd’s notable sons, from Winkie’s Wheel, by Winkie from Prayer Wheel, by Pilgrim’s Progress from Catherine Wheel, the dam of Treadmill, a highclass racehorse and a successful sire. Grapai, therefore, comes from the same family as the Rosehill Guineas winner, Phar Lap, whose dam. Entreaty, is a sister to Winkie’s Wheel. * * * * Commandant, the Legionnaire—Bees in Amber two-year-old, purchased by Mr T. S. Roulston in Sydney, on behalf of Mr T. H. Lowry, has joined F. Davis’s team at Hastings. He has been broken in, and is now working on the track. * a t • The yearling colt, a brother to Wiltshire, who is located at Messrs Wilson’s property at Waimai, is spoken of as a particularly attractive type of young thoroughbred, says the Waikato writer, “ Martian.” The three-year-old sister to the Day Comet—Lady Lobelia steeplechaser, who is also located at the same headquarters, is being given plenty of time before being prepared for a racing career. • a * * Affirm, who is a brother to the Winter Cup and Avondale Cup winner. Historic, ran second in the Heatheriie Handicap at Caulfield this month. On the same day Mystic Peale, by Romeo from Refinement, won the Whittier Handicap. He carried top weight, 9.3, and he was allowed to start at an outside price. # 4s afs $ The New Zealand-bred gelding Waicullus, who registered an attractive performance in the Aspendale plate on September 4, eclipsed that performance a week later, when he carried 10.12 to victory in the Warriston Welter Handicap run at Caulfield and in which he defeated a field of eighteen in brilliant style. It is related that Waicullus was sold a few days before the lastnamed race. Waicullus is a seven-year-old gelding by Lucullus—Waiputere, formerly raced from J. Sullivan's stable at Woodville. m * * * Amounis already has two Epsom Handicaps to his credit. His owner and trainer consider that he has wonderful prospects of winning the third this year, providing the course is firm. The horse has always been held safely by the bookmakers, notwithstanding that his immediate admirers have not supported him. They have paid for the experience that it is better to accept a shorter price on the day of the race, knowing the condition of the track, than to accept a bigger price earlier and risk a fine day prevailing. Amounis is hopeless on a soft track. Amounis’s task in the mile race this year is no easy one, apart from the fact that he has to carry 9st 131 b. In 1882 and 1883 Masquerade was successful. He is the only aged horse that has won the race, and he was aged on the occasion of the first victory. Amounis, who won the event twelve months ago, was seven, or aged, on August 1 this year.

Honour is going to prove a mighty three-year-old, just as he was an allconquering two-year-old last season, when he came to Randwick and won his only contest, the £6OOO Sires’ Produce Stakes (writes C. J. Graves in the “Guardian”). Some who have seen the work he has done since his recent arrival from New Zealand already wish that they had been brave enough to give the price asked for him when he was put up for auction at Randwick last Easter. It is said that the reserve was 6000 guineas, and nobody got near that offer. But it is quite on the cards that he will prove worth a lot more money. The question is whether he will stay. As to his speed, there is no question. A gallop at Randwick recently emphasised his brilliance. But whether he will run the Derby distance or not, he is likely to prove a great stake-winner at lesser distances. Honour is such a magnificent galloper that he seems at his ease even when putting up good time. Trainers of rival Derby candidates eagerly await Honour’s attempts to go a distance, in order to see whether he can stay. They recognise him as one to be feared at shorter distances, and if he can go further rival Derby chances are frail.

Writing on Friday of last week the sporting writer of the “Sydney Morning Herald” said: “Limerick is not quite himself, but if his condition is not worse to-morrow than it was yesterday, he will most likely take his place in the Chelmsford Stakes at Randwick. Last Tuesday Limerick appeared to be a little lame when he walked from the course after his gallop. This did not worry trainer F. D. Jones, as it is somewhat characteristic of the horse. On Wednesday Limerick pulled up all right after his work, but some deeprooted ailment is, the trainer said yesterday, causing trouble. It is in the off-foreleg, and on Wednesday the affected limb was treated with hot fomentation for three hours.”

TROTTING NOTES. Acceptances for two trotting events on the first day of the Geraldine Racing Club’s meeting will close at eight o’clock tonight. 3c & 4* # Nominations for the New Zealand Trotting Cup will close at noon on Thursday. t * >i> Declaration of the handicaps for the Methven Trotting Club’s meeting has been deferred till to-morrow morning. * * * * The race track at Addington was ploughed up last week, but it has soon been put in order again, and horses were working to-day on the part that had received attention. Trainers asserted that it had never been in better order than at present. m * * • W. J. Tomkinson worked Concliff, Elzear, Logan Park and Dalmeny at Addington this morning, the quartette going a little further than a mile and a half at a useful speed, and all did their work quite satisfactorily. Concliff is fast getting into good racing condition, and is remaining quite sound.

Jolly Pet, who seems to be settling down to steady work, was 6ent a little further than a mile and a quarter, and paced in his best style.

Hinkler, Lingfield, Wilma Dillon and Prince Pointer set off in that order, with gaps of about half a dozen lengths between them. When they had gone a round Prince Pointer closed up to Wilma Dillon, and the pair then raced in line. A little further on Lingfield took charge and led Hinkler by a couple of lengths. The horses were worked right-handed, and after doing a mile and a half at a useful speed they commenced to go faster round the turn out of the straight. They sprinted along the back stretch, going about two miles in all. It was an interesting piece of work, although none of the pacers went at top. * * * * Wah and Country King were jogged a couple of rounds, and then the trotter did about a mile at a faster clip, going without any mistakes. Country King was not worked fast. s* * * * Rolex worked a little further than a mile at a solid speed. The pacer is fast getting into his best form. * * sfc * Zenith, who looks none the worse for his recent racing, went a little further than a mile at a good clip, without the hopples, making no mistakes. 4* * * * Admiral Bingen, who looks well, was jogged several circuits on the training track, and then was given steady work on the race track. t{t * sn * Locanda Boy, who does not look any too sound, but who is no worse than usual, was given useful work over about a mile and a half. * * * * The Victoria Breeders’ and Owners’ Association has run foul of the newlyformed Trotting League organisation by its action in agreeing to a motion reaffirming complete confidence in the Victorian Trotting and Racing Association. At a committee meeting of the league held recently the following resolution was unanimously agreed to: — “That this league totally disagrees with the resolution passed at a meeting of the Victorian Breeders’ and Owners’ Association reaffirming complete confidence in the Victorian Trotting and Racing Association, and requests all members of the Breeders’ and Owners’ Association to tender their resignations from the latter body immediately.”

Although pleased with the Victorian Government’s intention to allot 20 days a year to trotting—an increase of four days upon its previous recommendations—the majority of trotting men in Victoria consider that some action should have been taken by the Government to place the sport on a non-pro-prietary basis. In its endeavour to establish a non-proprietary club (says the “Globe”), the newly-formed Trotting League of Victoria is making rsipid strides. Following upon its successful meeting of September 3, it has a membership of more than 300, the largest body that has ever represented trotting interests in the State. Members of the league are surprised that Mr Cleary, M.L.A., spoke so highly in support of the Bill, as he was expected to champion their cause in the House. It is proposed by the league to canvass members of Parliament throughout the State, on the question of future trotting control. Already trotting clubs and agricultural societies throughout Victoria have been communicated with, and they are expected to support fully the league’s proposals. Interest is being shown in the movement by other States.

NEW ZEALAND CUP HISTORIC RE-HANDICAPPED. Historic has been re-handicapped at 8.12 in the New Zealand Cup. This represents a penalty of 71b for his win in the Avondale Cup on Saturday. HAWKE’S BAY NOTES. (Special to the "Star.”) NAPIER, September 23. Mr A. Hyde, a one-time crack amateur rider, has been appointed judge of the Waipawa County Racing Club’s meeting to be held at Waipukurau on Labour Day. Mr W. P. Russel! will officiate as judge at the Napier Park Racing Club’s meeting on October 5. That good hack, Goodwill passed away on Tuesday last, suffering from some internal trouble. He had not shown the form expected of him in his last few starts, and may haw been affected when he ran at Wanganui. His loss will be a severe one to his owner, Mr J. E. Windle, of Waipukurau, for he was a promising sort. Commandant, the two-year-old son of Legionnaire—Bees in Amber, purchased in Australia on behalf of Mr T. H. Lowry, has joined F. Davis’s team at Hastings, and on looks should turn out a good one. He will be given plenty of time to mature, and is not likely to do much racing before the late summer meetings. Gascony is galloping with great dash at Hastings, but he has not been really up against anything good yet, and has always been a great track worker. He and Great Charter and a couple of two-year-olds may be taken to Auckland, but it will depend on how they shape at Hastings on Saturday.

Te Awha is galloping in improved style at Hastings, and should be a win-

INTERESTING SPORT AT AVONDALE.

EAGLETS EASY WIN IN THE GUINEAS.

‘(Special to the “Star.”) AUCKLAND, September 23.

The Avondale Jockey Club’s spring meeting concluded to-day in fine weather. There was a large attendance, and good racing was witnessed on a fast track. Totalisator receipts for the day were £38,806, compared with £28,472 for the corresponding day of last year. Receipts for the meeting were £86,603, as against £55,391 10s last year, a total increase of £31,211 10s. In the Mount Albert Handicap twenty-nine horses went to the post. Refresher (£1058) was a solid favourite, with Prince Val (£513) and the bracket Tairua and Tukunoa (£393) also in demand. Pellette ran up second to Norval Tea crossing the top, with Tetrachate, Refresher, Currajong, Arihana, Prince Val and Mauriaena all handy. Prince Val moved up into fourth position as the field entered the straight, and getting a run on the fence he cut down the leaders and scored by a long head from Refresher, who beat Bornbarder by three-quar-ters of a length. Myola was fourth. For the Plumpton Handicap Hyde Park carried £1616. Piuthair £773 and Desert Glow £761 also received a fair measure of support. Crossing the top Glenstar was showing the way to Transformer, Standfast and Piuthair, with The Lover, Hyde Park and Star Stranger next. Glenstar turned fur home first from Transformer, High Pitch and Standfast, but he tired over the final stages and Piuthair and Star Stranger then came on the scene, and

in a good finish Piuthair defeated Star Stranger by half a length, with Transformer a similar distance away in third place. High Pitch was next. Then came The Lover, Desert Glow, Singleton, Hyde Park, Standfast and Glenstar.

In the Guineas Eaglet was installed a warm favourite, carrying £2268, with Flying Prince (£799) and Imperial Prince (£664) next in request. Eaglet w T ho drew the rails, was first out from False Scent and Imperial Prince. Running along the back Imperial Prince and Flying Prince were racing on terms, with Eaglet and False Scent together just behind them, followed by Gay Duke, Tahoma and Bennie, who were also bunched. There was no alteration as they ran across the top and the order into the straight was Flying Prince, Imperial Prince, Eaglet, False Scent, Bennie, Gay Duke and Tahoma. Eaglet took charge over the last furlong, and, stalling off a strong challenge from False Scent, the Chief Ruler filly scored by three-quar-ters of a length. False Scent two-and-a-half lengths in front of Imperial Prince. Tahoma was fourth.

For the President’s Handicap Gold Money carried £1334, while Leader (£1272) and Awarere (£679) also had good support. Lucy Rose was first to move, but crossing the top High Finance had charge from Awarere, Leader, Lucy Rose, Te Atiawa, Kingfield and Billikin. The last-named ran up second to High Finance entering the straight, with Awarere, Kingfield and Leader close up. A furlong from home Awarere took charge, and looked the winner, when White Fang came with a late run from the back and got up in time to win by three-quarters of a length, with Leader third a similar distance away. Flying Juliet was fourth. Then came Archeen, Te Atiawa, Gold Money, Lucy Rose, Kingfield and High Finance. For the New Lynn Handicap, Arikitoa (£1222) and Indolent (£1048) were most in favour. Crown Arch had charge crossing the top, attended by William of Orange, Sea Cob, Good Boy, Lucky Alice and Arikitoa. Lucky Alice put in a fast run at this stage and was first into the straight from Crown Arch and William of Orange, with Good Boy, Sea Cob and Arikitoa next. In the run home Sea Cob and Arikitoa came through, and in a tight finish Sea Cob beat Arikitoa by a neck, with Brampton a head away. Lucky Alice was fourth.

In the Nihotapu Handicap, Ohinemuri (£1293), Lady's Boy (£772) and Palmares (£694) were accorded most support. Value, the winner, was entrusted with £451. Value took charge early and led along the back. Crossing the top she was showing the way to Ohinemuri, Mithra, Lady's Boy, Owairaka and Palmares in that order. Value was going nicely in front entering the straight, attended by Mithra and Owairaka, and she went on to win by a length and a half from Lady’s Boy, who finished fast and beat Mithra by a neck. Palmares was fourth.

ST LEGER PROSPECTS UNDER DISCUSSION.

(Special to the " Star.”) J LONDON, August 15. I suppose this message is the last in which I can deal advantageously with the St Leger, though there is little to add to what I have previously written. Mention has already been made of the Manton-trained filly, Pennycomequick, who won the Oaks and then failed in the Coronation Stakes at Ascot. She can have no chance at Doncaster if assessed on her Ascot form, whereas in the Oaks she gave quite a colourful display. At Doncaster I imagine that the Manton people will be more concerned about the running of Brienz, a colt that finished third in the Derby, and one whose stamina is possibly his greatest forte. He certainly ran on at Epsom—few better—and he may become a big factor in the Leger if at his best, about which I believe there is not going to be much doubt. Here, then, are the best of the St Leger horses as I see them now: Hotweed, Trigo, Buland Bala, Pennycomequick, Brienz, Posterity, Quarter Sessions, Haste Away, Defoe, Hunter's Moon, Mr Jinks and Bos worth. It will be seen that I have named a dozen, and in quickly striking out Mr Jinks I do so on the score of stamina, deleting Hunter’s Moon also because of the fact that he has been suffering from a summer cough. He will need to make a miraculous recovery to go to the post fit and well by September 11. Defoe, I think, is too big a horse to be a real good one, and his trainer, F. Darling, will not find it easy to wind him up. Quarter Sessions, while a good stayer, may lack that requisite touch of class. On the latter score Haste Away—another capital stayer—must go by the board, and Pennycomequick is dismissed because of her doubtful nature.

In reducing the issue to half a dozen I feel more or less certain that we are on the right track, and have a feeling that the better of R. C. Dawson’s pair—Trigo or Buland Bala—supplies the answer to the riddle. If we accept the Derby at face value then Trigo must be the “pea”. I could find no fault with the performance of Trigo at Epsom, and as Buland Bala has already ryn the French crack Hotweed to a head he must be a wonderful taleteller to Dawson.

One cannot patriotically declare for Hotweed without emphatic inspiration, and for that reason—while recognising his book claims—l shall turn to something else. If Hotweed is a champion then he did not dispose of Buland Bala as he should have done in the Grand Prix de Paris. I fancy that Brienz will give each-way backers a good run at Doncaster, Posterity (a very attractive horse to the eye) is, I kn w, a most bona fide proposition. They are commended to those who wager win and place. For the outright winner of the last classic, however, I shall stand on the Derby winner, Trigo, and were he to be absent for any unexpected cause before the day of the race I would transfer my faith to Buland Bala.
