He took the lead at the start and soon had a lead of half a dozen lengths from Bonatic, with Antrim Boy and Exide next. Rangatahi fell at the first hurdle, and Bonatic at the second. Mime continued to draw away and won by twelve lengths from Heisler. Heisler beat Lancer by six lengths, with Antrim Boy close up. In the Autumn Stakes, Adelphi was soon in front, followed by Palmary and Palada. Palmary dropped back after going a furlong, where Pink Paper joined in. Adelphi led Palada and Pink Paper to the straight, with Royal Limond and Sleipner handy. Adelphi went on to win easily by two lengths. Pink Paper beating Palada by a neck, with Royal Limond fourth. The favourite, Appeal, was never prominent.

Hoylake was favourite for the Timaru Cup Handicap. Topere led Starshooter and Don Jose along the straight. Leaving the straight, this pair was followed by Tardy, Stealth and Pink Note. Half a mile from home Topere was still two lengths in front of Starshooter with the others in a bunch. Arikiwai shot out e.t the entrance to the straight and woft easily by two lengths from Pink Note, who beat Starshooter, with Topere close up. Lord Thomond was a warm favourite for the Tycho Handicap. Tariff was soon in front with Lord Thomond and Valuator next. Dry Area was in third place at the home turn, but faded out again.

PHAR LAP LOOKS WELL. (Special to the “Star.”) SYDNEY, March 25. When a young horse shows form above the average, it is not unusual for it to be discovered that he has greatly improved in looks. This was said of Phar Lap after his recent Melbourne wins. In his case the statement was war ranted. Always a tall horse, he presents a much more seasoned appearance than when racing here in the spring. He is also heavier-quartered and bigger in the barrel. M. M’Carten rode him in his work yesterday, but though it has been sug gested he will be on him in some of his races at Rand wick. Pike and Elliot c will share the riding on him at that course. Pike will, of course, be on him in the St Leger. and Elliott in his other races. As the latter may be unable to visit Sydney before the A.J.C. meeting, M’Carten’s opportunity for a mount on the chestnut will be anything in which he may run prior to the Randwick fixture.

No exception could be taken to the wav Chide moved yesterday. There Was certainly no suggestion of lame-

i Cup at the South Canterbury meeting to-day, defeating Pink

ness, and he is a much bigger horse than when he first came across. According to some of the New Zealand division, he is better when carrying little flesh, but a change from one place to another occasionally causes a horse to alter in every way. Chide may do better here than in New Zealand when on the big side. METROPOLITAN TROTS. NOMINATIONS RECEIVED.
