At Newmarket Strephon did a mile and a quarter spin with Leonards 11. Coligny 11. w'as not at top speed. His gallop w T as a disappointing display, because he appeared to labour in action, so the scratching for the jubilee caused little surprise, for Darling cannot have him anything like his best by May 17. The w’eather is improving, and to-day is hot and sunny, so he should progress better. YEARLING SALES. (Received April 26, 10.45 a.m.) SYDNEY, April 26. At the yearling sales ar New Zealander, Mr H.
