TE RAPA TRACKS

TRIALS FOR PUKEKOHE JOSETTE’S SMART HALF ESTRO HITS OUT (By “ Martian ”) The going on the No. 1 grass was in good order for galloping at Te Rapa this morning when the final gallops for the Franklin Racing Club’s Winter meeting at Pukekohe on Saturday took place under ideal weather conditions.

The first three furlongs occupied 365, the half-mile 49 2-5 s and the five furlongs in 1.25. Estro accomplished her task in pleasing style and is not without prospects in the Pukekawa Hack at Pukekohe this week. Raceline (Coon) ran once round in 2.7 4-5, finishing resolutely. A Solid Effort A solid effort over a round was credited to Acreman (Ensor) and Gay Rosette (Goulsbro), who finished clear of Joy Vaals - (Haiti) in 1.535, which was the best of the morning pver the distance. They ran their first half-mile in 50|s and were doing their work well at the end. Cappy (O. Mclnally) was clear of Mio Generale in completing a task in 1.575.

Wildore (Goulsbro) and Ureklaw (Long), picked up by Gay Opal (Brown) at the three furlong peg, hit out over a round, Wildore finishing a shade in front in 1.56. It will not be on the score of condition if Wildore fails to give of his best at Pukekohe.
