Whangarei Fields And Prospects Today

AUCKLAND, Last Night (Spec.) A really good fie.d is to contest the Whangarei Cup tomorrow, opening day ot the spring fixture ol the norIthern club, and with the Other events I well filled an excel.fent day s racing (Should be furnished. Ruling Master, winner o£ the Par-

liamentary Handicap at Trentham in Ju.y, heads the Whangarei Cup held and the easy track will suit him. He will only need to be reasonably handy at tne turn, with its fur.ong and a-half straight, to be in the picture. White Blaze will be suited by this class, and Quick March, a good horse still in tile making, will have his chance here. The grey Jon Rosa won the Dig race at Cambridge last Monday strictly on his merits, and a repetition will again make him a difficult horse to beat. Beau Rosa is on the up grade, a very c.ose fourth in the Spring Handicap at Ellerslie being encouraging to his admirers. Swilt Quarry will only require to be in some form here to be in the thick of it, and Kyrat is a pretty good sort o£ stayer on easy tracks. Beb, raced by the president of the club, will be expected to improve on Rotorua and Cambridge showings, when he went fair races. Maid of Sherwood is nearing her best form and is a possibility. Saffron Walden raced up to his best at Rotorua and Cambridge and he seems to be tlie most dangerous of the lightweights. The Whangarei Cup should be a line contest, with Maid of Sherwood, Jon Rosa, Quick March, Beb and Saffron Walden likely to be in it at the finish. The following should go well in their engagements:Maiden Stakes.—First division: Ending, Fort Knox. Second division: Kaitariki, Bulos. Kensington Hack. First division: Master Shikari. Lady Finis. Second division: Rhonddavaie, Lady’s Bridge. Huanui Hurdles.—-Court Lad, Duke Royal, Default. Whangarei Cup.—Jon Rosa, Maid of Sherwood, Quick March. Hikurangi Hack. Tiercel, Brown Velvet, Star Dink.
