E- Whyte, sec retary to the Wellington Racing Club, is a visiter to the A.R.C. meeting. Mr Evett will frame the handicaps for the Wbangarei Jo«.key Club's meeting, to beheld tie second week in January., Vanquish is voted a sure starter ia the A.R.C. Summer Steeplechase. She is trained by G. Barnes out Avondale way. It is rumoured that a prominent New Zealand herse-owner may turn bls attention to racing in Australia In the spring of the year. Th? Avondale racecourse Is looking a picture just now. The grass has been cut and the hay stacked, and the willow trees round the paddock and lawn are growing nicely. Muddle, by Explosion from Miscalculath r, is cue of the best efforts at ncmeaeiature we have had of late. A two year old of the Hon. H. MOman's has been so named. Up to November 2 Sir J. Miller was at the head of the winning owners’ Hsx for this season in England. Seven of his horses had won 14 races, of a total value of £24,668. After doing a gallop over hurdles with Up-to-date, Tauhei showed signs cf sore&tis again, sud this is the explanation of her absence from the hurdle race on the first day of the A.R.C. Summer Meeting. The four-year-old gelding, Cnirassier from Fishfag. has been leased by Mr J. Marshall to an ERerane sport. The three-quarter brother to Cannongate is in J. Chaafe, Jun,'a hands. Romeo has been talked of as a doubtful starter in the Auckland Cup. but judging from the work he is doing, and that Lindsay's services have been retained, he ran be put down as one that will make the final paynsest. The “Sperfal Commissioner” of the London •Sportsman.” thousrh very strong on ♦he “figure system,” says he has always held the figures, as a mer-* guide, subservient to the individual merft of a horse. Mr Fabias. wh*> for years carried on business tn th* 5 Wntrarapa, has recently oureh*** 1 '! * property r»>er Avondal’. aud has had four boxes* bwlit there, and has several horses in training. Quarry man dees net to be fit ouch to de himself at the A R C. Summer Meeting. If his track work gives any fedleatlen of farm Re m!*v be a better horse at the *nd of the meeting than be will be this week. The Enrft’h-bred hor«e Presbyterian, who. he*h I’' th* Old Countrv an-1 India, ea’med the name of being a perfect savage, according to the “Referee.” has «•- b«inz added to the nst Ry lots of Indian racing ftren. it Is deplored that sweh a course should have been adopted with him. as he looked a horse wo"’.d have made a name for hhnself at the stud, and they beileva hit temper wu only due to bad handling.

The programme of me Taranaki Jockey Club's Summer Meeting appears in this issue. The dale of nominations has b >v -n fixed for January 6th. The Taranaki Cup is worth 35OS0VS, and there are races to suit many Auckland wned horses. In times gone by. says the Sydney writer, "Milroy.” the Summer and TattersaU’s Cups were mediums of spirited speculations. but they are gradually going out of fashion as aute-pewt betting races. On many of the past Cup® the ring operated very largely. The American jockey. Tara?, has wound up the Anstrcv 11 ungarim season with 98 victories, or one b-ss than Bor.ta's total last year If his three German successes at Hamburg are iucinded he bis topped the century by one point. Th® black pony Chieftain faiWl to go less than 14.11 when measured his arrival in India. However. In a country where they managed to get Indabba d»?wn to 14.1. there should be no trouble ia reducing Chieftain a quarter of an inch. Old Kenaka is the ble<*k in the v ’ - ; ' ■" ‘r- * h . Aka AJka and Tahae have 8A and 7.6 retjv**!y iu that m<*. Tahae is thus reotiviisg ±st from Kanaka: and in the Flying 2st from Kingsman. who has 1G.2, top weight, in that event. From America comes word that Ormonde hi's sired a colt strongly resembling himself. The youngster is out cf an Englishbred mare, named S uta Bella, and is said to be the finest-looking foal seen in Ca - foriila for a very long time. Mr H. A. Tinker, who has ln New Zealand a few months attending to dental troubles in horses, and has been largely engaged l-r leading owners and livery stable proprietors iu the South, is on & visit to Auckland, and can be consulted at the Harp of Erin Hotel. Ellerslie. Recently in England Mr R. S. Siever coirtpiained of the way two of his horses were tr-rated by the committee of hamlicappers. but the stewards of the Jockey Club, after going into the matter, found that he had no very serious cause for complaint. Twenty three borses were working during the week on th? Avondale course, and in view of the midsummer meetings at the Tiuxrs and DargaviHe. where some sre and the A.R.C Summer Meeting, training operations in that quarter have boen busy for some time past. Thus early the conditions of the Doncaster Handicap and Sydney Cup are published, and though the autumn meeting of the A.J.C.. at which these events wilt be run, does not t-ske place until the beginning of April, nominations must be made not later January 4. —"Referee.*’ Mr J. Marshall's filly Pearl Necklet, by Haut Brlon, white racing in Victoria recently. got galloped on. and did wot Id consequence show expected form, and her owner has received information that she will not be ready to race again before the autumn. Bad luck this. I have rarely se®n so many horses before a midsummer meeting at Ellerslie looking so Wealthy and well as th-’ b?g in work there. As a rule they are drawn much finer, and look more dry about their coats. We have had >ss hot trying weather this summer than in many rracedlng ones, and therein lies the explanatlco. in part, at least. A Home authority says that Ard Patrick would have been re-purchased for England if the German Government had been desirous of selling him. The would-be buyer offered a substantia! advance on what was given for the horse, but ahnost needless to say the Germans did not wish to get rid of him.

Lady Avon is among the entries for the 14.1 races at the coming Mg meeting at Calcutta. If she strips in anything Hkv her beet form, says a Sydney paper, she should be equal to beating everything she meets tn that class, notwithstanding there are some good ones from Australia engaged. CittDt M. Kinsky, who won th* Liverpool Grand National in England on his own mare Zoedone In 1883. is evidently one of those men wbo never seem to grew okL Alt hoc ch In his year, he still gets up In cross coQDtry ra«*» s. and at a meeting In Austria al-oat six w->-ks ago. won a steeplechase oc Hannah, whom he owns. The Phoebus Apollo—Musket Maid colt, half brother to Waiuku. Rawiri, and Okoart. is about the biggest but at the sama time, evenly propertioued of the sixty six y-xrlings to be sr»!d at the midsun mer but will not be so big a colt as Rawtri. befne closer to the ground than that **ommanding son of St. laeger, but will be bigget than Waiuku and quite as massive. Tn the Walk! Cup. 1| mile, the coromltof handicappers gave Taplow 10.7. and KingsmaD. who won. 8.0, a difference of 35Ibs. Id the Flying, which Kiugsman also won. they made a difference between the two horses of 2*<?bs. In the Whatawhata Cup. li mile. Klngsman has been set by Mr Knight to give Tapiow 61bs. r.ixl in tbs Flying 2ulbs» the differences beiug all ths other way. Racing at th? Thames is in progress today. and will be continued on Tuesday. More Auckland horses are said to have gens th-re this year than has ever been the ■ ase before, from whch it may be inferred that the m ietiug is u.t losing in popularity. The improvements effected since the Inst ui->et-!ag held in March are such as to make the Parawai racecourse one of the most up-to-date cf country clubs in the North. Aft.r bringing his jumper Agitator all th? way from South Canterbury it was hard lu k for Mr McDonald to be deprived of bin services for the Thames meeting through aa accident. When schooling in company with Pipi on Tuesd ..y he nipped one of his j.- : and Mr McDonald wjuM not risk ra-'j-'-g the horse so s»n after the mishap, though he is hopef:! that he will be able t' start In the Auckland Summer Steeplechase next week. st? not manv -gtud masters who world risk so much in one as to send ail their mar-s an untried st: I-ion. the first year cf his taking up stud life, and those who bred fcr sale gannet afford to do s No horse that I know cf turn had a better chance given him In hie first season at the stud than Mr O mold’s Birkenhead, who will have 23 representatives as the result of his first season at Karamu. seventeen of the number tying COltA Commenting upon my note pointing to the fact that such a large proportion of our cb stn ni«>n ponies have been nr?, res, “Martindale,’’ in the "Town and Country/* sars;—l have noticed the same at Kenrington. Tak". for instance, rhe emr’ei for to-day's OVedne-sdsyi mating at our pony headquarters. For rhe six races thera are SI entries, and of these considerably more than half are mares. In the past the champions have been mires, th? b st. without a doubt, being Cinder Ellen sad Minerva. .An English writer, in touching on Sceptre s deeds, says it Is curious that Ornament, grandly as the sister to Ormonde Is bred, by Bend Or, out of Lily Agnes, would have proved a ccmparativff failure at the stud but for the late prod ice of S-.-eptro, whose c urage is in marked contrast to that displayed by her preceding relatives, and it was indeed a happy inspiration which led to her being mazed with the King’s champion in his first season at the stud. I cannot call to mind any midsummer mer ting In Auckland at which so many visitors from all parts of New Zealand had assembled as hare dene so for the Auckland Racing Club's meeting this year. For some days past all the leading hotels have been full, or accommodation engaged, and this is a sure sign of a successful time in store fcr the Auckland Racing Club, who are fortunate, as they Invariably are, in having the b st of weather for their fixtures at this season of the year. EHeralie never Looked prettier than it does to-diy, and many of the visitors who are with us for the first time are simply charmed with the surroundings at headquarters.

This pony measuring business wan:» fixing on proper lines, si the writer had occasion to remark oxer two years ago. when some of the ececalied ponies were racing at meetings hereaboct.

An Ingenious method for dealing with horses that are refractory at the post has been invented by M. Ri-ta-d Figi'S start*r to the French Jockey Club. It consists of a hood, having two smaß plates, worked by a spring, covering the eyes. A ribbon, worked by palling a string, raises the plates, which remain open and eannot close again. La Dragosme. a troublesome mare, first wore this hood at Parts ra**s recently, and made an excellent start. The invention is most smreessful. and is likely to be generally adopted.

Looking over our country exchanges <savs a Sydney paper), and noting the reports published from tisce to time of the various racing clubs, leads to the belief that turf affairs In the country clubs are la a mere prosperous state than they were at this time last year. Very few of our country clubs but what can now s?M»w a bank bila nee. What is better still, there is an allround improven' '3c In the way of cure This is the best sign of aIL Good entries saean an increased attendance. If racing U at a low ebb in the eonntry districts, we cannot expect It to be fiourfshing In the metropolis.

“Do you know my reason for semrtag Oranel; as my Jo'key?” ssked the American terrseown*’ John E. Maddsi. at Morris Park. “No? "Well, FI tell you. In the first place, he Is of Irish blood. Second, he doesn't part his hair in the middle. Third, and last, he does not smoke cigarettes. Besides these virtues Connell has many qualities to recommend him. The b->y hss plenty of nerve, which is most I“''able In the make-up of s. successful jockey. It Is an absolute winning trait when, as la the ease of young Copneii. that seif-asser-tiveness Is added to good hands, a capita! seat tn the saddle and a level head.”

With a view to stopping horses breaking throtrch the starting mi'ehine, Mr Gray has eonstrarted a barrier consisting cS toxa strong ropes, about the thickness of a elctbes line, which will replace the tape which was so easily broken (says the Sydney “MalL”) The new barrier, which was In use at Kensington oo Wednesday, ''l agein at Forest Lodge yesterday, worked quite as quickly as the tape, and its eonetrucffoß is seeh that ouce a horee or rider comes into collision with it he will not want to do so a second time

The New Turk Jockey Club Is m.eking a strong set against doping, and next year a •veterinary surgeon will be one of the oEeials at all meetings held trader its rules. The growth of the ■‘doping” evil has been very marked tn America during the past few years, and a bad case, in which the horse died il COnndslOTM. ts & regult Of 13 •▼erdase af a drug. determined the author!-

ties on dealing very aeverely with offender*. The penalty will be expulsion from the turf, end where the offence fa aggravated tAe rtvll authorltlee wl!! be asked to act. a number of American trelnera have been hauled over the coala lately, and it la aafe to say that with expulsion hanging over them they will be very careful la fnture. It has been the • ustem to keep the entrance gates to rhe E’-emlie Rarwune closed cn Sunday mornings, and a very rood one too: but on the Sunday beffore important meetings tr has invariably been the practice to open them, the same as wc.k mornings. Several vUiting trainers vre out as usual waiting ab«*ut for th* pretaker to have th»» gates unlocked, but they were disappoint* d. and their b« rses had to be exercised on the roads. A few early teuts on the course had conclude?! that the trainers had overslept th^mseiv-s. when they did net arrive with their charges. The action of the V R.C_, in reducing the stake Eiuney for the autumn is belug much discussed la racing clr according to Milroy.” and the general »pin!on appears to be that it would be better to reduce the number of days from foar to three instead of cut ting into any of the stakes. Pour days’ racing at Melbourne Cup time is quite sufficient for most people, and two Saturdays and a mid week meeting should be enough for them during the autumn. The reduction of SSOsovs in the All-aged and Essendon Stakes is a very serious one. and, considering the sound position of the V.R.C.. appears to be quite unnecessary. Certainly, the members might be consulted before any such drastic changes are determined upon. Mr W. T. Goodwin, who has made Suva. Fiji his headquarters for about IS months past, returned tn Auckland on a visit during the week, and informed me that a few horses are in training in Suva for the Christmas meeting, to be held on B.xlng end New Year’s Days. The principal race is the Governor's Cup. a trophy presented by Sir Hencry Jacksox Governor, who takes a great interest in rad nr. Amongst the iikeiy competitors are: Bother 10-12, Gaeteir 10.3. Morna OS. Fairy Bower. My Lcrd. Cannonball, and Little Jim. with Iwer in»oost-S<. Sid Hodge is training Goetsir and Bacchus. The meeting is expected to be a successful one. A writer in the Perth “Sunday Times** says of their new handicapper: In face of a few mistakes since making his debut in public. Mr Geary has done fairly well under unfavcHuable clrcun. Itauces. He came amongst us an entire stranger, With little knowledge of local form, and rather does he deserve praise for the manner In which he set about the arduous duties before him. It is no easy matter to bring & field of horses together when one has to be guided by more cr less inaccurate records. Now that Mr Geary has seen for hlmseX and drawn his own conclusions of local form, he will come out in his true colours. In criticising out leading weight adjuster I am Influenced, by no mean motives, and attach the minimum of blame to Mm for recent blunders. A report has appeared In an Australian paper that seme difficulty Is being experienced In training the Hotchkiss—Forao colt, which brought 12*X) guineas ar the Wellington Park sale last year. The report Is incorrect, as It Is considered advisable to give the colt time, and he is dally to be seen working at Ellerslie, and there is nothing at al! amiss wlzh him. A number of the high priced and other of the youngsters that were sold last year are ex actly in the same position—their owners wisely waiting with them. They will make all the better horses, end in time we may know that there will be more goed two year olds out this seasox than some people imagine. A galloway race appears on the programme of the Whatawbara Racing Chib, and half a doxen horses have been nominated. including one whose name figures also in pony races. Our so-cal’ed pony . races are really what are known in some parts of the world as galloway tscca At one time the standard height In Auckland for ponies was 14 hands. Then 14 hands 1 inch, and later on 14.2; but for a considerable time 14.3 has been the reccgnls-

ed standard, and owt wf .‘oay’twst, «r far convenience. every understoed rsclnff ma ehl m that ran g*t under the stand «rff an fixed by racing rule. Is deemed a pony. There la no rule bearing on gaKoway events. Ciube on call their races what they like, and make special conditions. : at In the racing acceptation of the term galloway. how many of the half entered f »r the gallow ay rave at Whatawhata are sech. It has bee a a common practice axnoagst some sporting writers to Hazard op uu-ioa before the weights have been issur-d for Important handicaps as to what pour.dagv certain hordes wou.d receive, and on a few occasions iuci< -pau y hsiidkaps hive been tssurd. and aliowtd to see the light of Jay by the frant* rs days before. An exchange says that iu racehorse owners are tak.i.g exception to the prospects of their horses being discussed by sporting scribes Immediateh sfter the entries are made for big races, believing that handkappers are influen- ed to *ome extent by whs' they see in print, and when particular attenuo i is drawu to a horse before the weights are is.«ued it more often than not means a pcuud or two extra on him. says the writer. This may be so but sometimes bandi-wppera overlook horses and treat them as if they are from the back blocks. The Continental correspondent of a I.ondon pap*»r says that a rontrwversy as to heavy weights carried by jo*.keys in certain races rcauuds him of the seldug race which was run at the Frankfort August meeting in 1880. when Mr Oehischlaeg-r the favourite. Antonelli, to rhe post. .»•..! only found or e opponent, in Seestera. a rLonga the conditions of the race stipulated that there should be at least three startess. He had luckily entered G rossfuerstin, a a l. according to th* conditions of the rile*. she Lad to carry 110 kilos (about list 31b) She was to be ridden by Harry Milne, at:a- Led as weight to the stable. Every pos slble cloth was collected and f ’ * 1 lead, and It took a couple of men to irry the staggering load to th* saddling paddock, while Milne, his pockets boots fl >d w*-h lead, had to be hoist? 1 Into the saddle to go out and p’.aee himself under tn- 1 starter's orders. Milne had to balance himself like a circus rider, bu: wis fortunately not compelled to go over the esnrse. When I stated some few ago that Mr H. Friedlander might be selling some of Ms horses in training about midsummer time, I did net anticipate that that gentleman would offer all his horses in training in Auckland. Furh. however H the case, and it Is announced that the New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Asrency Company (Mr 11. O. Nolan, auctioneer) will submit the ’bt on Wednesday at the Harp of Erin Het®! stables. This looks very much like a breaking up of Mr Friedlander’s large Auckland racing stud, which for som l ’ time ft has reported might eventuate. Mr Friedlander has had a g od deal of hard luck in his raring experiences up this way. and Icsf ?g the services of such flue fillies as Sars Penr and Rose Shield, and of the useful Kelborn trained la the South, must have be- n disheartening. to say nothing of other misfortures of a minor character. Should Mr Friedlander dispose of his string, which is announced for absolute sale, the clubs hereabout will mian a liberal nominator, and an owner who has h«*eu on? of their best tnpporters for the ptrst thr“? years, during wM'*h time he has also purchased largely at the bleed stock sales In Auckland. Referring to the commencement of the croAs-conntry seison In Enrlsnd. i London writer says that several Influential owners have premise-! to devote more attentf i to the *‘lepping” gam?. Some recruits of fair class from the fiat are anticipated: they will help to Increase the general excitement wh *n fine finish o ? are contested an I tho farozxrite looks like being whilst many trainers are fond of aH-the-year-ronnd racing because they like all-the-yenr-raund profits. It la bad for them, as far ordinary citizens, when agreeable sources of income are suddenly dried np. It te. so to speak, like pinching a man in one place and patting him Ln another; he does not know whether to throw up his hat or his sponge. Hardened backers, too, continue their wag-

evtag thmaghevt the wintry •etr'a. sad they seem to do just as well as If not better tkaa la semmer. They pick out the ebeiee goods with equal alacrity, foil »wing bril Tiani inspiration, and the jumping does not seem to be a difficulty so far as their Interests are involved, true of tbooe gentlemen put the matter thus: 'Horses are not backed until they are properly schooled, and It is very bad hock that brings them down—when the money is on.’* What sort of field we shall have for the Great Northern l>erby remains to be seen, but with Tread ad H» Mekdeon. Oneww. Brave Heart. Quarrytuan. K«aheur. and R> pa to draw from, there may be a fair field as these events go after all. Quarryman was Lame after work the other day. and may net *ee the pose. Ouewa. whatever he may have a<*rom pint bed in the Interval, is exp**’~t*'d to do better by Derby Day. as he fcs believed to be ail the better for raring, and is a colt that takes some riding, like ills three-quarter brother Explosion.
