TE RAPA GALLOPS PREPARING FOR TO-DAY'S MEETING The flags were 60 feet out from the rails on the course proper at Te Kapa on Thursday morning and the going was good.

Star Artist and Light Comedy went off from the. seven-furlongs post and, joined by Whirling at the six, ran home in 1.36, the last six furlongs in 1.22. It was a very useful effort on the part of all three and they should lack nothing on the score of fitness for the coming meeting.
