Compared with the weights in the Spring Hurdle race. Free Air (the winner last Saturday) is up 131 b. Red Sun (second) is up 81b and (Monastic (third) is up 31b. Coll (fourth) has the same impost. Hounslo'w and Lvcidas are each down 21b and Revision (fifth) is down 51b. Lycidas, who won twice at Wingatui and then at Washdvke last month, ran a poor race. Monastic, Free Air and Red Sun are likelv to be popular candidates.

Silver Sail had Bst 21b when she won the Irwell Handicap yesterday. Tomorrow’s race is over a furlong longer distance. Penelope, who was only fifth yesterday, was third, with Kinnoull fourth and Bun Fight fifth in the Welcome Stakes on Saturday, when Svmconv won from Silver Sail. Kinnoull and Bun Fight did not race yesterdav. Silver Sail. Penelope and Kinnoull will be in demand. 2.35 p.m.

Sporting Blood, who has so far followed in the steps of Nightly by winning the Riccarton Handicap ami the Derby, should continue in the same path by capturing the Canterbury Cup Palantua and Red Manfred followed Nightly home, and Red Manfred is again to be a runner. Sporting Blood seems certain to be the choice of the majority of punters.

handicapped for this event have stood their ground. Cricket Bat had 9.3 when he just lost the nine furlong Riccarton Handicap to Sporting Blood. Korokio will be having her first start at the meeting, while The Masquerader will be making his first appearance since his return from Sydney. Sweet Agnes should be suited by the distance. Princess Doreen failed in the seven furlong Criterion yesterday, but Passion Fruit was a good fourth in the Fendalton, one mile and a quarter. This distance will suit Pin Money better than did the Derby. Cricket Bat, Passion Fruit and Korokio seem entitled to consideration. 4.5 p.m. NEW ZEALAND OAK STAKES, of 500 sovs. For three-year-old fillies. Onfc mile and a half. Air A.

Mother Superior was second to Might, with Vintage third, in the mile Wainui Handicap at Trentham on October 20. That is better form than the recent efforts of her rivals. Chidden was second in a high-weight at Motukarara and fourth in the C.J.C. Spring Plate. Variant, who was a good two-year-old, finished eighth in the Stewards’. Mother Superior, Variant and Chidden may be the elect of backers.

When Scratchmere Scar won the mile Apprentices’ Handicap on Saturday, he had 8.6 and was followed home by Heather Glow, 9.0. and Maroha, 7.13, Sibella, 7.11, being fourth. The minimum in the Ashley is 71b higher Sea Fox was second to Rebel Chief in the Lin wood, seven furlongs, on Saturday. Wonderful finished fourth in the Derby. Silver Step was fourth in the Linwood and again in the Randolph yesterday. Scratchmere Scar, Sea Fox and Maroha may be in request. 5.25 p.m.

Quietly was fourth in the mile Epsom Handicap yesterday. Sam Smith was third in the Spring Plate on Saturday. Fracas has been disappointing this season, but can still gallop fast. Red Racer tired in the Epsom yesterday. Fair Weather was prominent in running in both the Riccarton and Criterion Handicaps. Emotion failed when favourite for the Middleton Handicap yesterday. Quietly, Sam Smith and Fairweather may appeal most to backers.
