WAIMATE HGUNT.

Race Meeting to be Held To-morrow. GLANCE AT FIELDS. After a lapse of a couple of years, the Waimate Hunt Club is holding its annual race meeting. There was some hesitation about carrying on this year, but the acceptances give promise of some interesting racing and if the weather be kind, the club should obtain a satisfactory result. Racing will begin with the Noon. STUDHOLME HACK AND HUNTERS HURDLES HANDICAP, of 50 sovs. One mile and five furlongs. 1 Polling Day 10 8 Kakara 9 3 Mount Boa 10 2 Blue Metal 9 2 Rational 11. 10 2 Punchestown 9 0 Semper Tent Call 9 0 Paratus 10 2 Poor Boy 9 0 Polling Day had 9.13 when he won the Hack and Hunters’ Steeplechase at Oamaru on July 1 and the extra 91b should not stop him in this field. Mount Boa, Blue Metal and Kakara are interesting newcomers. Semper Paratus is another who should make good at this game. Rational 11. has had a fair amount of jumping education lately. Polling Day 9.13 and Punchestown 9.0 were second and third to Huntley in the Ashburton hurdle race on June 24 Backers are likely to favour Polling Day, Punchestown and Semper Paratus. 12.35 p.m. NOVICE STAKES, of 35 sovs; six furlongs—Gay Robe, Royal Grafton, Mainliglit, Marmoration, Lvcidas. Quite. ; Soon, Ruling Pen, Adult, Efferzel, Don- ( ulda, March Brown, Rossferry. Lycidas was third and Donalda ; fourth, with Adult and Quite Soon further back in the Novice at Oamaru on July 1. Marmoration was second to Gold Arrow, with Silver Sight third over seven furlongs at Omoto last month. Gay Robe showed a good deal of promise at Washdyke on June 17. Marmoration, Gay Robe and Lycidas are three who should have support. 1.10 p.m. WINTER TROT HANDICAP fin saddle), of 40 sovs. Class 3.45. One mile and a half. Allanholme sor Pekara ser Betty Bingen ser Rough Sea scr Colleen Derby s-w Sunbrown 3(> Ivan de Oro ser Captain Bingen 48 Maliara ser Ivan de Oro has only to go up to his best form to be difficult to beat in the Winter Trot Handicap. Pekara also is overdue. 1.45 p.m. HUNT CLUB CUP STEEPLECHASE HANDICAP, of 4 0 sovs. About two miles “and a quarter. Lancer 10 10 Tooter 9 0 Diamond Br oadfield y 0 Jack 9 10 Willow Glen . 9 0 Nine of Slaunlathe 9 0 Spades 9 10 Deeifctte 9 0 Dukla 9 3 Blue Ray 9 0 Lancer, who did not take to ’chasing last winter, has not raced this year, nor has Nine of Spades, who proved useful last jumping season. Lancer is well in if he will keep on the course. Diamond Jack, on the other hand, has had half a dozen races and he was successful twice at Invercargill in May. Broadfield was prominent for a mile in the Wingatui Steeplechase last month. There is not much public form to work on in regard to this field. Lancer, Diamond Jack and Broadfield are likely to appeal to investors. 2.20 p.m. WAIHAO HACK HANDICAP, of 4 0 sovs. Six furlongs. Fleeting Pharaoh 8 0 Glance S 13 Marmoration 8 0 Dracula 8 12 Royal Goid Dress 8 6 Grafton 8 0 Dracula, who won both the Novice and the Farewell Handicap at Oamaru on July 1, had 5.5 in the latter event, lie is up 71b, but he won easily. Gold Dress won the five furlong Electric Stakes well in heavy going at Wingatui on June 3. Marmoration is referred to under the Novice Stakes. Fleeting Glance has been unplaced in all of her most recent races. Dracula and Gold Dress are the form favourites. 2.55 p.m. MORVEN HANDICAP, of 60 sovs. Seven furlongs. Mount Boa 9 0 Steeton 8 1 Palantua 8 13 Wise Choice 8 1 Red Boa 8 13 Night Gold Pit 8 6 Recital 8 1 Locksley 8 5 Projection 8 1 Mount Boa was third over a mile at Oamaru on July 1. Palantua has won five times in her last nine races. At her last start, she scored over seven furlongs at Ashburton with 8.1. Red Boa with 8.6 won the Farewell Handicap, seven furlongs, at Wingatm on June 3 from Polydora—a good recommendation. Gold Pit has not raced recently, but Locksley has some fair form to his credit this year. Projection won twice at Marlborough in May, but was subsequently unplaced at Omoto. Steeton failed at Oamaru. Wise Choice was fourth in the race won by Palantua at Ashburton on June 24. Night Recital was further back in that race. Red Boa, Palantua and Wise Choice may have good support. 3.30 p.m. HUNTERS* PLATE HANDICAP, of 30 sovs. One mile and a quarter. Lancer 11 10 Broadfield 10 ll Bulolo 11 2 Rossferry 10 9 Pharaoh 11 2 Trisox 10 9 Nine of Piave 10 7 Spades 11 1 Waikari 10 7 Many investors on this event will be looking for a lead on the totalisator. None of the acceptors have any recent form to recommend them and only four have raced this year. Lancer, Pharaoh and Rossferry may find support. 4.5 p.m. WAIMATE HACK HANDICAP, of £0 sovs. Seven furlongs. Fleeting Poor Boy 8 0 Glance 9 l Lycidas 8 0 Dracula 8 13 Adult 8 0 High Speed 8 11 Donalda 8 0 Helen Gold 8 3 High Speed raced fairly at Trentham and was a winner over seven furlongs at Wingatui on June 2. Dracula and Fleeting Glance are referred to under the Waihao Handicap, and Lycidas and Donalda under the Novice. Present plans are for Donalda to rtin twice, and Adult is another likely to do the same. Helen Gold was second to Dracula in the Novice Stakes at Oamaru, beaten four lengths. She came out again in the Farewell, also won by Dracula, but missed a place. Dracula, High Speed and Helen Gold will appeal to backers DINNER SETS 4ps. Mazarine blue edge and the best of English ware. Of course this is only one of a hundred kinds at Minson’s. You wil] never be satisfied if you buy a set without a visit to Minson’s. X
