Perfect conditions prevailed for the final gallops at Ellerslie this morming in connection with the Avondale Jockey Club's meeting, which took place on the No. 1 grass track, tilie going beinjr excellent. Among those to please were Sebrof, Declaim, Moneyep inner, Phalerton, Royal Message, Odtnn, Llandaff, Rex, Maitland and- Brazilian. Sebrof (Thomson) put up a smart effort, beating Golden Bonnet (Mauson) and Acre's Beauty (Poad) over three furlongs in 36 3-ss. Sebrof finished exceptionally well. The two-year-old Declaim (Messervy) impressed more than Transmitter (Wiggins) over a similar distance in 37 4-ss. Both these two-year-olds are well forward. Moneyspinner (Wiggins) reeled off half a mile in 49.4-Js. He was assisted by Landveyor (Poad), the pair running the last three furlongs in 36 3-ss. Moneyspinner should put up a good showing in his engagements at -Avondale. Phaleron (Wiggins) traversed v lour furlongs in 50 l-ss. the last three in 38 l-ss.- beating Pertinax (Markwick) and Pleuron (Wiggins). Phaleron was doing his work well over the final stages. After getting an advantage at the start, Happlcoat (Gilchrist) was easily beaten by Royal Message (Vaughan) at the conclusion of five furlongs in 1.4 4-5. They covered the first two In 25 3-ss, and Royal Message came home very sol'dly, although Hnppicoat was no tridden out. After cooling off, Royal Message was showing distinct signs of lameness. A fine effort over s\x furlongs was credited to Odtaa (Qilchrist), ■ who finished several lengths ahead of Hot Shot (Manson) in 1.19. The first three furlongs took 38 4-ss, and Odtaa impressed, though he had a good deal the better of the weights. Llandaff (Messervy) was also sent six furlongs, which he accomplished "in 1.19 3-5, the first three being covered in 39 l-ss. He was inclined to .loaf a bit toward the end. Rex Maitland (D. Green) and Brazilian (Messervy) recorded 1.19 4-5 for a similar task. They finished clear of Mimax (McGill) and Biddy Girl (Ryan), who accompanied them.
