She is raced by Mrs G. N. Kay, of. Te Awamutu. A NECK VICTORY Stock Exchange, by Mysotis— Bourse, ran a very solid race in the hurdles at Paeroa.

A DECIDED LOSS The well known sire, Inflation, by Paper Money—Fleeting, died at Awapuni last week.

Divulge, by Revelat-ion—Tambourine, broke a leg while working at Hastings last week, and had to bp, destroyed. The chestnut colt was purchased' at the 1913 National Sales and was a Very promising galloper. THE AUCKLAND CUP OF 1943 The most recent news concerning the champion, Kindergarten, is. to the effect that ■he will be. allowed an easy time daring the coming winter, and then be prepared for the Auckland Cup of 194,3. It isi yet too early for the handicapper. to make a pronouncement, but nevertheless there are racing experts Avho surmise that he may be handicapped at 11.0. TRANSFERRED NORTH The Otago owned steeplechaser, Slayer, has now joined A. Jenkins team at Masterton. Tim trainer will ride the Valkyrian gelding in his crcss-country engagements.

GIFT TO PATRIOTIC FUND The well known Canterbury own-, er, Mr J. R.. McKenzie, has donated his two year old pacer by U-Scott ■—Great Actress; to be raffled for the Patriotic Fund. Truly lit may be said, that racing men are doing j their bit under the heading of Effort. TOTAL NOW 21 The successful rider, J. Williamson, followed up his Ohinemuri success with two winning rides at the Bay of Plenty meeting, and brought up his total this season to 21 wins. THE REVERSE WAY Like many other southerners, Duncannon is not yet partial to right-handed going. In the Bay of Plenty Cup he ran out decidedly wide in the home run and finished under the judge's box. The Inflation gelding is tin splendid racing trim, and, should race prominently at Ellerslic this month.
