CATALOGUE RESUMES Catalogue, who was reported to have broken down during' the running of the Wellington Cup, has apparently made a good recovery for he is again among the track workers at Awapuni. WORTH KEEPING IN MIND Pinoccliio lias not done a good deal of. racing, but there is little doubt that he is one; of the most promising maiden prospects in commission at the moment. Ha was backed with rare confidence to Avin the trial Plate at Trent ham last month, and had it not been for losing ground at the start and then later suifering serious interference at the false rail it is probable that ho would have been in the money. He is due to make his next appearance in novice events at Woodville. and ha should be well worth keeping * n mind, especially as the class he will oppose is by no means strong.
