Awapuni Candidates For Auckland Events
Among the earlier trials at Awapuni on Tuesday morning were those of Infinity, Arcara and Earldale, which are to race at Ellerslie. They worked the reverse way on the trial grass. Infinity, ridden by B. Wood, sprinted five in 1.3 2-5, the last in 37 2-5, and she was not ridden out at the finish. Arcara (V. J. Sellars) and Earldale (J. G. Dulieu) worked splendidly over just short of a mile and three furlongs, and the last three would be run in about 39. They ran the first seven in 1.33 2-5 and the first mile in 1.46 3-5. The going was not fast, but it was in excellent order following Saturday’s heavy rain.
