Ellerslie Fields And Prospects Today
Fields have thinned out considerably today for the second day of the Auckland Racing Club’s three-day Easter meeting, especially in the two jumping events, there being eight in the hurdle race ind seven in the Autumn Steeplechase.

Horses that may appeal include:— Nelson Handicap.—Ngarobi, Ututere, Macario. Victoria Handicap.--Epsom Boy, Ox- ■ ford Blue- Gold Point. ■ St. Heliers Hurdles. —Dark Victory, 1 Dr. John.
