FIELDS REVIEWED

12.0— OTANE HACK AND HUNTERS' HURDLES. About one mile and a

In the Otane Hack and Hunters’ Hurdles De Friend does not impress nor does Begorrah. Birkology looks good and will have friends. Harbour Bar must be considered; so must Contact and The Tramp. Thrasher is a form horse who should give the top weights a run for it. Sir Nigel might upset calculations while Tigreterre is sure to find support. Those in favour, however, may include Birkology Harbour Bar Thrasher I 12.40— I

Brackets: Eola and Yogi, Shetland Isle and Charles Hugo, Black Majesty and Social Credit. Tideway, who scored a second at Hawke’s Bay on June 17 should go well in the Okawa Maiden as the distance is only five and a half furlongs. Defray and Modern Way are sure to be prominent most of the journey. Arabic, who carried 8.0 in the Rotapai Handicap at the last Hawke’s Bay meeting might go well and the distance should be about right. Odavarb is a horse worth considering and might show up. Those followed up by the public may’ include Tideway Defray Modern Way

Blue Tiger and Rapa Waiata are certain to be well backed. Count Willonyx will also receive plenty of support. Master Turbine should find the distance to his liking and will not be without friends. Of the others Umpire looks the best and support may come for Rapa Waiata Blue Tiger Count Willonyx

Anini 8 0 Raana and Le Toquet should both go well in this event. Golden Flame is also capable of winning in this company, while The Ring must be seriously considered. Shani and Anini may be in need of a race or two. Arabic and Breenore do not impress. Hunting Mo ments might run well, but supported horses'may include The Ring Raana Le Toquet

friends as he is in good form. Tideway and Tigreterre have been entered in prior events and if started should command support. Ayrsleigh might be liked by some and is expected to be well up. Geelong and Lacan can be depended on to make the going interesting. Horses finding favour may include Inheritance Tideway Tigreterre

Bracket: Quilp and Mother-in-Law. The Waitangi Hack Handicap should prove one of the most interesting races of the day. Gold Ballad .who registered a nice victory in the Seatoun Handicap at Trentham on the second day should corfimand a fair share of public sup-

port. Hunting Royal, if the going is heavy, is certain to be amongst the leaders. Halley and- Royal Spades should be well supported and will be well up at the finish. Morning Flight and Quilp must be given every chance. Haile Selassie is due for a win. while Gay Laura, Lindrum and Mother-in-Law will not allow the top-weights to have all their own way. Horses finding support may include

Gold. Ballad Hunting Royal Haile Selassie or Quilp 4.5—

Bracket: Quilp and Mother-in-Law. Solaria at the weight looks to have a good chance. Gold Ballad has been entered in the second to last race and may not start. Royal Minstrel must be respected, while Padishah and Granvale will have friends. Reipar can be depended on to make the race interesting. Hunting Mint, if the track is heavy, will be liked. Fossicker has not won lately but might be well up in this event. Support may come for Black Thread Padishah Solaria
