ffffi MANAGED.

THE THAMES MEETING. 4 SUCCESSFUL FIXTURE. ' 1 15icrmes Jockey Club experienced a '»ery successful meeting at the '.v- week-end. There was an Increase in totalisator revenue each day, while the results from the attendance point of viesl must also have been very satisfactory. It is pleasing to chronicle the success attending the latest efforts of the Goldfields Club, which "has recently gone to considerable expense in remodelling its track and improving its totalisator accommodations. From both points of view very happy results have been achieved. The president of the Club (Mr Henry Lowe), the secretary (Mr A. G. Rae), and the various other officials arc to be congratulated at the smooth running of the latest meeting. The totalisator closed promptly on time and the fields were despatched without delay, points in management that contributed to the success of the .gathering and met with the hearty , appreciation of patrons. \ ' • i .GOSSIP FROM ALL PARTS f ■ The Foxton Club’s meeting will be concluded to-morrow.. The Ngaruwahia Club will carry out its non-totallsator fixture on Saturday. The Bay of Islands meeting will take place.; on Saturday next. x The Wellington Trotting Club will hold a one-day programme next Saturday. Valroe failed to run up to expectations at the Thamas meeting. This is not the true form of the Matamata / trained gelding by Valkyrian from Pretty Roe. t Siaosi was nominated for the coming meeting at Ashhurst but it has been decided not to send the Te Awarnutu owned and trained gelding south. There is a report in circulation that the Wingatui (Dunedin) trainer, S. G. Ware, is going to make Te Awamutu his headquarters in the near , future. Master Roley raced disappointingly I at the Thames meeting. The Cynic— I* Miss Roscland gelding stopped quickly I each time and, apparently, he is off I colour to some extent. I The Sun, an Australian-bred twoI year-old by Sun Cure—Pcrsianello, is ■ now in It. L. Russell’s team at Te ■ Awarnutu. This juvenile was formerly ■ trained at Te Rapa. ■ Eh Timi displayed some daSh in his ■ racing at Thames and the grey gelding ■ by Polydamon—Rewanga may be cap- ■ able better in the near future ■ on - a more roomy track. ■ it is possible that W. J. Tomkin- ■ son will visit Melbourne in, March and H fake with him from Christchurch the ■ Ihrce-year-old pacer Hinkler, who /is ■ engaged In the Melbourne Trotting ■ Derby. ■ Camp Prince ran a good race in the H Hikutaia Handicap at Thames on Mon1U jay in which it was only in the closing H stages that lie was narrowly beaten H into third place, after being the pacegfl maker from barrier rise. On . that form • the Lucullus —Queen of the £■ Earth ihree-year-cIJ gelding is worth Hooting.

Flying Juliet and Flying Tresses, by j Romeo from Penella arc sisters who( were returned winners at the Thames . meeting. Subdivision and Land Meastire, by Surveyor'from Juanna, are brother and sister respectively, who were also seen out at the recent fixture, where Subdivision scored two successes.

Awarere, Papatu and Just Nell, members of G. Paul’s Te Awamutu team, who are to race at the Wellington meeting are now at Trentham. Aussie also accompanied them South hut the. latter has no engagement next week.

Dainty Manners, a bay filly by Jack Abbey—Silver Bonus, -who is in J. F. Eva’s team at Paeroa, is an improver. Dainty Manners was in third place at the finish of the Kopu Handicap -at Thames on Monday but she would have been very hard to beat if she had received a clear run in the straight.

Black Maire appeared to have the. Farewell Handicap at Thames in his keeping as he approached the straight, going very freely in front. Then the unexpected happened and the Glen Albyn—Mangamaire gelding swerved right across the course to the outside fence. The result was that his rider', 0. Mclnally, had to straighten his mount up but the opportunity had vanished by this time.

Katarena, the Quin Abbey—Madam Bose filly, made her first appearance of the new , season at the Thames meeting. • They were not very auspicious displays on her part as the three-year-old member of the Hannon stable failed to begin correctly and was well tailed off in both sprint engagements.

Leitrim let a big following down when the Valkyrian—lhapuna'gelding failed in the Parawai Hack Handicap at Thames on Saturday. When .he landed in the straight behind the pacemaker Lucy Rose, the prospects looked favourable for Leitrim but he stopped quickly over the last hundred yards and could not do better than third. Leitrim will require to improve on that form tb have a chance in the Wynyard Plate at Takapuna.

Le Choucas carried good money in the principal distance event each day at' Thames. In the Cup the Magpie —Kiki gelding was well back for a mile but he improved in the run home to get third. In the Plate on Monday Lc Ghoucas had every chance but Wenday carried too ’many guns for him over the last stage of the mile and the backers of the favourite lost a few shillings on their investment.

Arihana, who had the services of H. Goldfinch in the Puriri '.Handicap was made a surprise first favourite at Thames on Saturday. The Sir Dighton—Quaver gelding failed to find his feet quickly enough and did not get in the firing line. He made a better showing in the Turua Handicap on Monday in which he made the running until the straight was reached, but wilted under pressure and fourth was his position at the finish. <'

A. E. Ellis is .to be tided on the imported Hoylake in the Wellington Cup. Hoylake at present is something of a study, and it will be interesting to see how Ellis manages him. The Southerner, although not by any means a polished horseman, has a good deal more natural ability in the saddle than he is credited with, and is strong and determined. He should be just the right man for a peculiar animal like the grey, writes “Vedette,”

Star Comet, who is to race in "the Ngaruawahia Cup on Saturday, won that event last year and a later race at the meeting and then passed to more useful deeds in more advanced company. The son of Day; -Comet and The Whip is to go on to the Takapuna meeting next week end. Star Comet has failed so far this season but he has not done a great deal of racing. From this out he should be running into improved form.

Takutama ran two solid races at Thames where he finished third with 9.3 in the Puriri Handicap and was in a similar place at the finish of the open sprint on Saturday. He again tackled sprint company on Monday, but the Quin Abbey gelding was, apparently, feeling the effects of his first day’s efforts and did not get in the firing line at any stage of the six furlongs.

Bizarro had a win and a second to his credit in Highweight company at Thames. The first day’s event was easy for the Absurd —Flora McDonald chestnut but he found Clenstar carrying too many guns for him on Monday when Bizarro had lOibs above his first day’s impost. Bizarro was produced in the Ngatea Hack Handicap' later the same afternoon, but his showing, to be last home of five runners, was very disappointing and ho cannot be rated very highly.

Flying Tresses had shown pare since her two-ycar-old days but the four-year-old daughter of Romeo and Penella has taken some time to come solid. She opened her winning account in the first division of the Tapu Handicap at Thames on Saturday and this member of J. H. Wallace’s team at Te Aroha, may not be long in extending her record.

Wenday has been weighted for two events for the first day of the coming fixture at Takapuna. In the Orewa Highweight she has been given the top impost of 11.12, while 7.9 stands against her name in the Cup. At first sight, at anyrate, it would appear that the latter item offers the best prospects so far as Wenday is concerned.

Fraser, the two-year-old by Raceful —Miss Roseland, who is owned by Mr G. Ciliett, of Hamilton, has developed lameness as' the result of a wrench while running in the paddock. Fraser, who has shown a good deal of promise, was entered for juvenile*events at the coming meeting at Takapuna. It is premature to determine whether he will be able to keep his engagement at the Shore.

Loving Cup is the'latest performer to carry the colours of the Cambridge sportsman, Mr Mervyn Wells. This three-year-old gelding, who was produced at Thames, is by Quin Abbey from Shellshock, the latter of whom registered some success as a. jumper in the province a few seasons back. Loving Cup is trained by T. M. Morriss at Cambridge.

v There is apparently an Australian as well as a New Zealand Gold Tinge, one of that name being an acceptor for the Sefton Handicap at Warwick Farm last month.

Aspiring put up a brilliant gallop at Riccarton on Saturday. To run 49 2-5 s on the plough, and the last three in 35 3-ss, is exceptionally good. Aspiring has only 6.12 to carry in the Wellington Stakes.

The trotter Mutu, who is engeged at the Wellington meeting on Saturday, has reached the scene. The Te Awamutu representative is expected to go well.

Ail Christchurch is talking of Hoylake’s mile in 1.40 1-5 at Riccarton on Saturday morning. Despite the fact that he had a light-weight up, the gallop is said to have been exceptional.

Silver Paper galloped very well over five furlongs at Riccarton on Saturday morning, registering 1.1 2-5 on the plough, with a good weight up. Childsplay was responsible for the same time earlier, but according to the critics Silver Paper’s performance was the more impressive.

It wasistated in racing circles duping the past week that Aussie was to be sent to the Dunedin meeting to tackle Limerick in the Hazlett Memorial Plate, but such has been denied by Aussie’s owner, Mr G. Paul, who said the matter had never been considered says a Christchurch message to the Wellington Dominion.

Australian writers are looking forward with interest to Mr G. D. Greenwood’s two-year-old Limond colt Honour, winner of the A.R.G. Royal Stakes, fulfilling his engagements in the A.J.G. tSires’ Produce and Champagne Stakes at Easter time. They are anxious to see how he shapes against the Commonwealth’s best of the age.

Valuation, who effected a surprise when he came home in the second division of the Tapu Handicap at Thames, is a three-year-old gelding by Valkyrian from a mare by Gravitation. He is owned by Mr J. Fraser Smith and is trained at Te • Rapa by A. Tinker. Valuation has not been an easy sort to keep up to correct pitch but he is a hack of promise. He showed a lot of pace in Saturday’s engagement and really won very easily, disposing of a useful sort in Good Boy, who had every chance, beingout in front for the greater part of the six furlongs.

High Tide was a little unlucky at the turn for home in the first division of the Tapu Handicap at Thames on Saturday. The more advanced company of the Turua Handicap was selected for High Tide on Monday, in which he proved equal to the demands. The Hyllus—Waiuta gelding was near the back of the field for the greater part of the six furlongs but he dashed up in the straight and effectively settled the best of the opposition. High Tide, who is now in J. F. Eva’s team at Paeroa, had hardly reached expectations prior to this success but the chestnut four-year-old may be found shaping better from this out.

High Finance, jumping off smartly, won the Flying Handicap at Thames as she liked. There was a different story to tell when Subdivision went with High Finance on the second day, and, as has so often happened, the latter capitulated a goodly distance before the judge’s box was reached. High Finance is speedy but she must have, the race run to her liking. If anything goes with her, the Paper Money—Rebekah mare invariably cries enough. This should not be taken too literally, however, when Takapuna prospects are being reviewed, as past experience has shown this to be a course to suit her.

Good Boy had three starts at the Thames meeting for a win and two seconds. ' On opening day Valuation beat the .Some Boy II —Lady Gowan chestnut in the second division of the Tapu Handicap but Good Boy registered an impressive win in the Parawai Hack Handicap later in- the afternoon. In the Hikutaia Hack Handicap on Monday, Good Boy’s many supporters were unlucky not to have shared in the first dividend. As the result of Good Boy getting into a mixup with Justify, the winner, soon after turning for home, valuable ground was lost. When levelled up again Good Boy was finishing faster than anything else in the race, hut it was too late to make up the leeway. Now that he has struck form Good Boy should be worth following.

Maori Boy scored a very pomfortable success in the Waitakururu Hack Handicap at Thames on Saturday, in which he carried the top weight of 9.0 and was two lengths in front of his closest attendant, Glenstar, at the finish. Despite a rise of 91bs, the Lucullus —Capable horse was looked upon with most favour for the Ngatca Handicap on Monday. It was horsemanship that really decided the issue, H. Goldfinch, on Hakanoa, out-gcneral-ling E. Manson, the pilot of Maori Boy. Maori Boy is a good sort and he is in splendid racing trim at pre.sent.

Glenstar, the winner of the County Highweight Handicap at Thames on Monday, is raced by the Gordonton sportsman, Mr N. D. S. Rumney, wdio also has Komak to carry his colours, Glenstar being trained 'by G. A. Reid at Te Aroha and Komak by R. A. Edwards at Tc Rapa. Both horses have 'paid their way this season. Glenstar should be capable of adding to his record on the flat, while Komak is being looked upon as having prospects in the hurdling branch of the game, to which he is to be transferred in the near future.

Writing in the Australasian “Snowden” remarked: “Personally I detest large sweepstakes or consultations (to use euphemism), held in connection with horse races. In many instances they have given rise to cases scarcely distinguishable from blackmail. In connection with an anairit is most improper- and illegal to mention its well-known name conducted in another State the Commonwealth Government acts with arrant hypocrisy. The delivery of letters to addresses known to be used in, con nection with the Tasmanian business Ts prohibited, yet to meet the demand for postal notes to cover the cost of a ticket the Postal Department ha, had postal notfcs struck to cover the exact price, and until recently the Federal Taxation Department took Us ‘cut’ out of the pool. Gould any official action be more contemptible and two-faced?

Dainty Arch, a four-year-old mare by Marble Arch from a St. Amans dam, is a member of G. E. Mallowes’ team at Te Aroha who shows &%me promise. She was a winner at the non-totalisator meeting at Matamata on New Year’s day and at her next appearance, which was in the first division of the Tapu Handicap at Thames, she finished second to Flying Tresses.

VVhaka King had three starts at Thames but the King Lupin—Karitea chestnut failed each time. The best display by the Te Rapa trained candidate was given in the I-likutaia Handicap on Monday in which he flattered his supporters until the straight was reached.

Ramblin’ Kid had a return of bleeding trouble, which accounted for his lack of form in the Borough Highweight for which the Te Bapa candidate was made favourite on opening day at Thames. He went to the post in this class again on Monday but he did not get dangerous. Prior to the meeting the Winterbourne gelding had been working well at Te Rapa. With the return of his old trouble his latest displays are excusable.

Subdivision was credited with a double win at Thames. The Surveyor— Juanna chestnut made an exhibition of his field in the Puriri Handicap on Saturday, having a good break into the straight and scoring anyhow. On the second day the best of sprint company at the meeting was selected for Subdivision who downed a 'hot favourite in 'High Finance. Subdivision has a good turn of speed and more should be heard of him in provincial company before the season runs out.

Mussie was produced for the Turua Handicap, on the second day of the Thames meeting. The Day Comet —Pet mare was so well thought of as to be installed first favourite, carrying £350 more than the second choice with investors. The best Mussie could do was to get third but the effort was not an attractive one. Mussie moved very short in her preliminary and this is probably the reason for her failure to fulfil the confidence reposed in her.

Hakanoa failed in the Waitakururu Handicap at Thames on Saturday but there was an excuse for the Valkyrian —Fanny Homer gelding in that he began badly. H. Goldfinch, who was again his pilot on Monday, hustled his mount from barrier rise and getting a ready response had the satisfaction of landing him a winner by a head from Maori Boy. A prominent measure of the credit for Hakanoa's success must go down to the man on top.

Mangani got away indifferently and also met with -trouble at later stages in the running of the Highweight on the first day at Thames. As he was up fourth at the finish, his showing was a good one under the circumstances. he appeared as an acceptor for the second day’s event in this division, Mangani was not produced. It is the intention to race the Day Comet gelding in the Highweight events at Takapuna. He is in splendid condition and may be capable of making amends at the North Shore, gathering.

Flying Juliet gave further illustration of tlie good form her Te Rapa trainer, R. A. Edwards, has her in this season, by winning the Goldfields Cup at Thames and running third in the Thames Plate. The Romeo—Penella mare was taken to the front from barrier rise in Saturday’s race and although Wenday threw out a challenge in the straight.,’ it was answered very readily and Flying Juliet was not doing her best to have half a length to spare at the post. Flying Juliet had a rise of 14lbs for Monday’s race in which she again made a good showing, although she had to be content with third place. 0. Mclnally, the apprentice in M. J. Carroll’s stable, handled his mount capably each day as he also did Modest Boy in a gruelling finish to dead heat with Ohinemuri in the Hauraki Plains Handicap, the concluding event on Saturday.

Wenday gave further proof at the week-end of the splendid condition in which she is at present by running second in the Goldfields Cup and winning the Thames Plate at her second day start. The latest performance by the Day Comet—Wenonah mare was of the impressive order. She came from the back of her field in the last furlong of the mile journey and, gathering in the opposition in ready style, was going away at the winning post by which time she had half a length to spare. This brought the record of the Tc Rapa prepared mare to four firsts, five seconds and three thirds in as many starts this season, a highly satisfactory state of affairs for which her trainer, A. P. Brady, deserves credit. The stable appren•ticc, P. Brady, rode a line race on Wenday on Monday at Thames, as he had also done on High Tide, who scored in the preceding event, the Ilyllus—Waiuta gelding also appearing on the scene with a determined and successful concluding run.

There were many who considered that Archeeu was unlucky to have missed a dividend place in the Hauraki Plains Handicap at Thames on Saturday. But for carrying out wide and finishing ’right under the judge’s box, Archecn must have gone close to beating the dead-heaters, Ohincmuri and Modest Boy. I’he Marble Arch —Kaween gelding made amends on Monday when he won the Farewell Handicap. The “breeze” was with him this time through the leader, Black Maire, carrying very wide at the straight entrance when going freely. Nevertheless Archecn finished very strongly, drawing away from Modest Boy and Lucy Rose when K. Gill shook him up over the last fifty yards of the seven furlongs. This gave the Te Rapa trainer, A. Tinker, two wins with the three horses he had at the meeting.

When Jpy Bird ran home a winner in the Denham Handicap at Randwick on December 29, she carried 7.7, ran thet mile and a-quarter in 2min -i jseo, ana, incidentally, gave the bookmakers a very pleasant “wind-up” for the old year. .So open was the race regarded that four horses were, quoted equal first favourites, a point ahead of one other, and the New Zealander was at a fine two-figure price. She was fairly well backed on the big place tote in the paddock, but larger odds were returned by the machines operating in the Leger and on the flat. • Joy Bird ran her usual race, in front, and when tackled in the straight lasted long enough to . win by hdf a neck. It was a good performance, and one that will be remembered at. Trentham this month. * —--
