OHINEMURI JOCKEY CLUB

RACING AT PAEROA. CUP WON BY CHARLADY. PRINCE ABBEY BEATS SPRINTERS. (Special 1o the Times.) PAEROA, Saturday. For the opening day's racing of lhs Ohinemuri Jockey Club, which programme marked the club's jubilee. there was fine weather and a very large attendance of sportsmen from all parts of the province. The track was in good order and the racing of an interesting nature. The principal event, the Ohinemuri Cup Handicap, of £-125 and a gold cup to the winner, was annexed by Charlady, who races in the interests of the Auckland sportsmrin, Mr Hugo Fricdlandcr. The rank outsider. Muscari, was only a neck away in second place. The sprint item of the card proved anofJier surprise, the winner turning up in Prince Abbey, who, with Muscari, races in the interests of the Walkato sportsman, Mr J. Fraser Smith. There was a slight falling-off in the tolalisator receipts, but these were well up to the average. The programme got behind time, which was a feature not in the best interests of racing. The following were the concluding results:— KOMATA HANDICAP. Six furlongs. First Division. Of £l5O. 3 CHAIRMAN, Mr R. C. Wallace's b g, by Nassau —Culross, 4 years, 7.12 (Cammick) .... 1 2 WINSOME BOY, Mr R. Lewis' b g, by Some Roy ll.—Winning Lady, 7.0 (Trcmain) 2 7 NEW MOON. M? G.

(.Winner trained by J. M. Buchanan, Ellerslie.) Winsome Boy soon became the most prominent, and led Billikins, Chairman, Rarakau, Zanna, and New Moon a'.ung Ihc hick. CrossiniT the top the. order was Winsome Buy, Billikins, Chairman. High Rose, Zanna. and Rarakau. There was very little separating Winsome 3oy, Chairman and Billikins, as they swept round the home bend in the van from Zanna, High Rose, Rarakau, and New Moon. In the run to the judge Chairman challenged, and drew out to beat Winsome Boy by a length and a half for first place, with New Moon a neck away third, and Rarakau fourth half a length further back, followed by Billikins, Zanna, Norma Talmadge, and Lady Passenger. Time, 1.15 2-5. Second Division. Of £l5O. 1 GAY COMET, Mr R. Burke's ch g, by Day Comet —Elnona, 5 years, S.O (J. Gray) 1 17 RAHEPOTO, Mr H.

(Winner trained by C. W. Coleman, Ellerslie.) Blue Sky got the worst of the start. Rahepoto showed the way along the back to Glen Abbey, Luxurious, Genetra, Killute, and Gay Comet. Crossing the top the order was Rahepoto, Glen Abbey, Genetra, Luxurious, Killute, Gay Comet, Blue Sky, and Sante Fe. Rahepoto and Glen Abbey were pursued round 'he turn for home by Luxurious, Genetra, and Gay Comet, the three being bunched. Once fairly in the straight Gay Comet cut down the leaders one by one, but just got there in time to beat Rahepoto by a neck, with Killute in third place a head further back, and Glen Abbey a similar distance off, fourth. Then came Luxurious, Blue Sky, Sante Fe, Quinvadra, Weka, and Genetra. Time, 1.1 S 2-5. Totalisator investments (both divisions), £-5552 10s. WAIHI HANDICAP. Of £3OO. Six furlongs. 4 PRINCE ABBEY, Mr J. Eraser Smith's b g, by Quin Abbey— St. Crispin marc, aged, 7.0 (Tuohcy) 1 1 LE CHOUCAS, Mr C. G.

Anderton, Ellerslie.) The start was a bad one, Pinon being one of the worst sufferers. Dan Quin, from the inside position, went out to make the running from Le Chcucas, Prince Abbey, Cawnporc and Master O'Rorke. By the four-furlong post the order was Dan Quin. Prince Abbey, Cawnporc and Le Choucas (Together), Finclli, York Abbey, King Pot, and Quinnctte. Prince Abbey took charge across the top, and showed the way round to the straight to Dan Quin. Le Choucas, Finclli, York Abbes and Loch Abbey. No Impression could be made on Prince Abbey, who saw out the journey in rare style |ii hc-it Le Choucas by two lengths, with Dan Quin a neck away third, and York Abbey, half a length further off, fourth, followed by .Master O'Rorke, Quinnetle, Loch Abbey and Siaosi.

Thomprsn) ; 1 Desire, 0.0 (Meredith). (Winner trained by owner, Cambridge) The race was started at the ftvefurlong post. King Abbey had a big break from Miss Mclva as he piloted the field over the stand double, this pair being followed by Desire, Peter Maxwell, Thiganthu, and Ngatea. Desire, when going well, lost his rider at a fence along the back in the second round, while Thiganthu was pulled up at the stand over the same circuit. At the fence entering the back the last time King Abbey made an error, but quickly recovered. The race, which had been between King Abbey and Miss Melva all the time, concluded with King Abbey beating his rival home by two lengths, with Peter Maxwell a distance away, in third place, Ngatea having dislodged his rider at the fence at the top of the course on the final circuit. Time, 5.6. Totalisator investments, £3050. NETHERTON WELTER HANDICAP. Of £250. One mile. 2 EII TIMI, Mr W. M. Sorcnsen's gr g by Polydamon—Rewanga, 4yrs,' 7.7 (McCarthy) 1 4 MISS EGYPT, Mr P. E.

Ring the Bell, Topping, Joy Ride, Lightwood, Mosaic, and Glenidle. Along the /hack Eh Timi was bowling along freely in the lead, with Miss Egypt,Ring the Bell. Topping, Glenldle; and Passionless his nearest attendants. There was no material change in the leaders as the straight was entered. Eh Timi going on to win by a length and a-quarter from Miss Egypt, with Joy Ride three-quarters of a length further back third, and Ring the Bell, a neck off. fourth. Mosaic, Passionless, Glenidle, Topping, and Lightwood were in that order. Time, 1.41. Totalisator investments, £5006 10s. 10s. Totalisator Returns. The totalisator returns for the day were £34,832 10s, compared with £36,018 for the opening day last season, a decrease of £llß6. NOTES AND'COMMENTS. Miss Melva's rider was posted for the hurdles, but the Spalpeen mare was withdrawn at the last moment. There was spirited investing so far as Hokioi and Archibald were concerned, with useful support for Bourn. After Nama and Infante, novices at the business, had tipped out at the first and second fences respectively, Tinokaha, who was having his first start over hurdles for some time, ran from well last to the front of his field inside a couple of furlongs, but he spreaden gled at the jump in the straight and gave N. Rowe a roll along the rail o£ 'he course. The race resolved itself into a duel between the Cambridge pair, Hokioi and Bourn, who singled themselves out from the rest over the concluding circuit. Hokioi's prospects looked very rosy until he came to the last fence, which he got in too close to and just scrambled over. Bourn jumped cleanly and the race was won. The Winl erbourn gelding was having his first outing over hurdles for some months. He stays well and js capable of producing a good finishing run. Hokioi is not yet a proficient jumper, but he has undoubted pace and should win races in the open company. Arsenc Lupin, who is a safe conveyance, just held out the fast finishing Archibald from third money. The latter met with some interference from one of the riderless horses in the early stages. He was going better than anything else at the finish and his illluck must soon desert h'im. Gold Rep, who was ridden by his owner, went a promising race in the company, with his limited experience. G. C. Y'oung. the rider of Arsene Lupin, was cautioned for jumping his mount across Hokioi and Bourn at one stage of the race. The Two-year-olds. Although only five two-year-olds came out for the Karangaliake Handicap, the volume of speculation was fairly evenly distributed, Value, Flying Juliet, Arch Arrow, Atapai and Yalkon all finding good support in that order. Value had the rails and hopping away smartly the Paper Money filly always required the others to produce their best. The apprentice Lee nursed his mount and when Arch Arrow came at her and looked like heading his Te Awamutu-trained rival in the straight. Value came on in good style to have a head to spare on the post. Arch Arrow's turn should not be far away. Flying Juliet w - as close up third, after covering more ground than the pair that beat her and giving them a fair lump of weight. Atapai has pace but isn't solid enough as yet, while the Valkyrian colt, Valkon, ran about a lot, taking the home turn very wide. Among the Novice Field. Of the 20 horses saddled up for the Novice Handicap, of flyp furlongs, Berinthia was made £IOO better favourite than Kingfield, but Dobbin, Ruffles, Scrang and Green Bonnet had many, admirers. Berinthia drew No. 2 at. the post, went away well and justified the confidence reposed in (lie Mountain Knight filly by leading throughout and winning handily by nearly two lengths. Ruffles (Quin Abbey—Necktie), one of Ihc most attractive looking hacks seen out in these parts for a long time, made an auspicious racing debut by hemp in the picture all the way and finishing- second. More will be. heard of Ibis three-year-old, who is one of W. O. Woods' team, now located al Te Bapa. He was supported on Ibis occasion as if ins ability in training was not entirely unknown. Kingfield carried his big weighl with distinction and with a little more luck may have been closer. Dobbin was always about the premises after drawing a bail marble and his fourth should he improved upon shortly. Native Girl got cut out al Ihc start. Memsahib was goiiiK well at the finish, Neil Kelly ran a fair race for a beginner, while Green Bonnet, Te Kawana and Harvest Day were always within striking distance of the pacemakers without, being able to make any serious impression on them. Cup Result Surprises. Town Bank, Polonett. Lord Star and Miss Egypt declined their engagements in the Ohinemuri Jubilee Cup Handicap, of £7OO and a gold cup valued at £IOO. This slill left Ihc useful Held of li runners, of whom the Thames-

owned and now Te Rapa-traincd Transformer and • the Te Awamutu candidate, Desert Clow, were singled out for the principal attention, the third favourite, Mount Maria, being some £SOO further away in the betling, fallowed by Curraghmore. Scat, Charlady and Barometer, and tho others al longer prices.

The race proved a surprise, the more fancied candidates failing to get prominent at any part of the journey. It remained with Charlady and Muscari to get into first and second positions early in the proceedings and lo be still there when the finishing line was crossed. The fact that both stayed out tho 10 furlongs so well surprised most people. Charlady, who has been racing well lately for Mr Hugo Friedlander and her trainer, Jack Williamson, is one of the limited number of Absurds to stay on beyond the mile. The well-bred Muscari (Solferlno — Rose Red) possesses the credentials, on breeding, but his latest form did net forecast such forward results. It was pleasing to chronicle them, for his Frankton owner! Mr J. Fraser Smith has not had the best of Inck with his team for some time. Jack Anderton, Muscari's trainer, shares principally in the kudos. As Muscari was the outsider of the field and was paying over three-fifths of a century for a win, Hie neck margin at the finish shows how close it was to a wide return. The time of 2.6 1-5 showed that there was no loitering with the winner, who was well handled by W. 11. Jones. H. Lee, the pilot on Muscari, also ;,ot the best out of his mount, which could not he said of some of the other pilots. Scat, who filled third berth, was going very fast from the straight entrance home. He got into trouble early in the proceedings and appeared to give a taste to some of the other candidates at one stage. At an inquiry, which was opened after the race, it tvas stated that Monkley, the rider, had no control of his mount at one period of the race, but definite decision on the incident was deferred until Wednesday morning, when the cvience of the trainer of the horse will be taken, ir Scat had had a little better position at the turn it is probable he would have been very hard to beat. Miss Vera, who got fourth, ran a satisfactory' race. Tinopono, who had the rails at the barrier, lost his chance when he did not gel out quickly enough, which is perhaps another argument for a strong horseman for this mount. Curraghmore was drawn badly at the peg and appeared lo be troubled with the bends when racing wide out. She never got a decent position, but in a smaller field may do better. Desert Glow did not belter his position much and never actually improved on the middle of the field. Transformer looked like going on with it half a mile from home, but did not get clear. He was one of the unlucky horses. Uralla ran a fair race and may do better at this distance or a journey a little briefer. Ohinemuri was near the front, early. Mount Maria and Barometer were badly placed going out of the straight, and were never seriously sighted at the business end of the journey, which Can be said also of King Lu and Potoanui. Cup Presentation. After the race the club's president, Mr A. McGuirc, presented the handsome gold cup, Mr Eric E. Friedlander accepting the trophy on behalf of his father, who was unable to be present through illness. Jones, the rider of the winner, was presented with a saddle. The Division Raoe, Divisions had to be resorted to in the Komata Hack Handicap, for which Nippy, Quincoma, Queen Comet, Maveelish and Te Kawana were the defections. Gay Comet, Winsome Boy, Chairman, Rarakau, Blue Sky and Lady Passenger were the best supported. Chairman won the first division rather handily after indulging Winsome Boy in the load until the closing stages, with New Moon finishing on in third place. All three have proved useful in their grade. Zanna would have been further up with more judicious horsemanship. Billikins stopped more quickly than was expected, but as she had' not had a race for a while this may explain it. Rahepoto, a big outsider, who had "Bert" Tinker's services, nearlyeffected a surprise in the Second Division. The favourite, Gay Comet, had to come from some way back at the home turn, but his numerous anxious supporters in a one-dividend event saw Joe Gray get him up near the post to win by a neck. The winner was useful at this period last season, and Gay Comet, who is now one of C. Coleman's team, is near his top form and should be heard from again. Killute battled on in third place, only a head behind Rahepoto. Glen Abbey, who was paying a "royaler,'' was in it until Hie last furlong, finishing a close up fourth. Blue Sky had more than his share of the bad luck going, but even then was close up to the placed horses. Prince Abbey In the Mood. When the sprint field had saddled up for the Waihi Handicap, Dayguard, King Lu and Exactly were missing, which left 12 runners, with Prince Abbey—Quinette on tho bracket. The .lamieson stable representative, Lo Choucas, wound up favourite, but there was good money for King Pot, Finclli and the bracketed pair. • The race was marked by two features —a bad start and Prince Abbey "in the mood." The carrier of Mr Eraser Smith's colours never had moro than two horses in front of him. Half a mile from home lie took Ihc lead and Tuohcy, his pilot, saw that he was kept at it. Although there was nothing outstanding in the time, Prince Abbey won by two lengths. Jack Anderton lias won two races with him during the short time he has had Prince Abbey. The favourite was second, but' had to be hard ridden. Dan Quin, who was a neck away third, ran bettor than usual, but he had every ciiance, as he was first away. Finclli was fourth before the straight was entered, but never it. York Abbey was not well served al tho start, so ran a useful race to get fourth. Master O'Rorke didn't hit out 100 well in his preliminary, but was up fifth at. the Jinish. Quinette was another to get away badly and on her subsequent showing may have given some trouble}. King Pol, whose rider carried 21b. overweight, was another who was not prominent. Willi a Uniform despatch the placihgs might have been different, although Prince Abbey was found in galloping mood. Poor Steeplechasers. The steeplechasers seen out today were lar from a high-class lot. King Abbey and Miss Mclva were i|,e only candidates with cross vnuulry pretensions and they finished in thai order. G. Holland rode a gouil race on the Haiinon candidate in this event. Miss Melva did not pull i;,p ton W ulL Desire (Advance —Oka) was moving fairly well when he lost his pilot. From End to End. Of the nine acceptors for the. Netherton Welter Handicap, the concluding event, Ring the Bell was a very warm fancy, with Eli Timi the next best backed, end Mosaic ami Miss Egypt in thai order on the u»hcliine, Eli Timi, who had the fence, nival-

iscd to he a bit unruly, and actually dislodged' his rider, but he hopped out well and galloping very freely was never headed. It was a ' good performance on the grey's part. Miss Egypt was always second, but Joy Ride cr.me with a rattle to be up third at the finish. Ring the Bell at some stages looked like doing better than fourth, where the favourite finished. Mosaic got ch-opped hack before the field left the. straight, and that settled Lis chance. Glenidle was another who felled to get a position early, but he showed some speed in the middle stages of the journey. ACCEPTANCES FOR WEDNESDAY (By telegraph—Press Association.) PAEROA, Monday.
