ON HAWERA TRACKS

TARANAKI PREPARATIONS. THE FINAL GALLOPS. Training operations at Haw era on Tuesday morning, states “Childers’ in the Hawera Star, were of a decidedly interesting nature, for a good many of th c Taranaki J.C. and Egmont R.C. candidates were given fast work. Owing to the rain which fell on Sunday, the plough was rather heavy and practically all of the galloping wis done on the outside of the course proper, which is in great order at present. The pegs are in 'about the middle of the course, thus being rather closer to the rails than usual. A heavy dew dampened the tracks for the early part of the morning, but after the interval it was much drier and faster. The first gallop of the morning provided a surprise in that Carfex (Cole) decisively beat Aga Khan (Feasey) over five furlongs. They were together until the straight, when Carfex drew out to finish a. length and a half ahead to register 1.6. This was the only galloj) done on the plough before the interval. Carfex relished the soil track, bowling along in fine style, but Aga Khan on the other hand did not seem to be altogether al home in the going. It may be unwise, too, In take too much notice of this work-out. On the Course Proper. Careful (Conway) hit out fieeij in a working gallop over six which occupied 1.27. She is now be coming much more solid. Panloff (Dunean) ami '.Daix'd (Feasey) were together at the. close of half a mile in 52 2>-5. I’anloff appeared to be going slightly the easier of lhe pair. Dai vet has come on nicely 'hiring thc hist, month and now shows no trace of the soreness which troubled him when raced over the holidays. The Collossus —Lady Eglentine gelding (Chote) sprinted three furlongs untimed. He hit out at I rad i \ ely and seemed to be moving along al a smart pace. Passing Fancy (Cole). Autumn Leaf (Mills) and Exquisite (Fearn) werv sent out of the barrier twice. Dn 110. 1 second occasion they continued o” 1,1 cover half a mile in 53 I. ssc< , with Passing Fancy a couple, ol Irngllis ahead of Autumn Leaf and Exquisite a similar distance behind. Passing Fancy, a well-grown I hrec year-old filly by Sandstar out ol Kissing < up, habeen working pleasingly of late ami again went well this morning. Gold Gleam (Feasey) traversed n round at a solid bat, the lasi, six fur Jongs taking I 24. Gold Gleam looksall the better for the race, he, had al Wanganui on Saturday ;in<| should strip a. lit. horse al New Plyinmit h. Ingenuity (Fenrii) completed a working gallop over a round hi sprinl ing flown the straight. Harvest Moon (Conwav nnd ')m Whetu (Duncan) were associated oxer half a mile, the former finishing hall' a. length Io the good in 51 2 5 However, they were not out. tn make time and neither were fullx extended over the concluding stages.
