HAWERA TRACKS

WANGANUI CANDIDATES FINAL PREPARATIONS TUESDAY’S GALLOPS (Special to “Chronicle.") HAWERA, May 10. Several candidates engageci at Wanganui were sprinted on the outside of the course proper at Hawera this morning and the going was in good order. Notium (Sexton) was to have traversed fixe furlongs, but he broke away at the six and, working evenly throughout, he recorded I.2UL The Lysander gelding is in great order at present and he should not return empty-handed. P. Burgess will have the mount. Student Prince (Cole), who is engaged on the second day, strode over naif a mile in 55. Appearing little the worse for hoi outing on Saturday, Winsome Lu (Farland) was not out to make time when recording 55 3-5 for a similar effort. She is also to make the trip for the second day and would only require to improve slightly on her running at Egmont to prove troublesome in her engagement. Gold Glare (Fryer) gained a couple of lengths advantage on Falner (Farland) at the commencement of live furlongs, and they were in the same order at the post in 1.7 i. Gold Glare infused more dash into his work than usual and he may be an early winnei. R. Horne will again be in the saddle. Fafner is a much improved hack and, although not engaged on the first day, he will probably be seen out on Saturday. Aymon and In Command compassed a round at three-quarter-pace and both completed their work in good style. Kena and Horowhenua were let oil with steady pacework on the plough The northern pair are remaining at Hawera until the Manawatu winter meeting on May 21. The Whangarei trainer, H. Scally, left for Wanganui this afternoon with Viracious, Disturbed, Aymon and the hurdler In Command. The lirst-named pair scored attractively on the second day at Egmont and they will not lack friends in their Wanganui engagements. The two-year-old Rulanut—- Gaiety Girl filly, Ruling Lady, formerly in T. Fryer’s stable, has been transferred to the care of H. Dulieu at Now Plymouth. Royal Fire was apportioned useful exercise on the inside. He has lightened up a trifle and appeared slightly sore in a hind leg. He may have |stifled a fence on Saturday. Friesland rejoined the active brigade this morning and he is very fresh. He has put on a lot of condition, but was bandaged on the off front leg. i Yesterday morning In Command (C. ; Cole) schooled over four hurdles and ' was responsible for an excellent dis- • play of jumping. He afterwards 1 jumped two brush fences in fine style. • it was his lirst attempt over country and his connections were highly satisfied with the display. Te Huia <R. W. Savage) also pleased over four schooling hurdles. He is to make his debut as a jumper at Wanganui and he appears a promising novice. The full-brother to Silk Sox is a natural fencer and jumps fast and straight. Dancing Lady has been disposed of ’ for the stud and her racing career is ended. A disappointing mare, she 1 showed a lot of pace on the tracks, but lacked stamina. Her last success was registered at Opunake, when she . appeared very lucky to beat her stablemate Race Call. Her box in L. George’s stable will be occupied by a rising three-year-old half-sister (by Illumination) to Artful Dodger. She is a very neat filly and will be awarded „ every opportunity to mature. i
