AQueetloa of Handicapping. Mrs I. E. Sweotapple, owner of Arachne, is . not satisfied; with the han- , dicap,' allotted her mare in the big race at Wellington, and BUggestß Mr- G, Paul, the -hasdicapper,, has exceeded the, limit of hie power's in bringing the; inare back from 4min 44sec to 4min 38see for her win at Kaikoura. It is not generally understood that a handicapper need not be, bound by: # home's latest performance in framing a 'handicap; At Kaikoura, Arachne a was let, out a good deal on her previous mark' and Mr Paul evidently prefers to take as ftls frapis .the established' mile and a - hplf mark,'3min 26sep, Outside the rights : or wrongs of the handicapping Arachne would appear to have a' good chance off 4min 38sec at Wellington. On the rough' Kaikonra track' she won in 4min 32 2-ssec, time that would have been a good deal faster had the race been run at Wellington. t,. For Wellington. F. G. Holmes will take two horses to the Wellington Meeting, probably Maurice Dillon and another. Other Canterbury trainers that will have horses engaged include O. E. Hooper with Eeal Girl and Logaleen, J. Bryce with Herod and W. Barron with Dillon Logaq. It is quite ; possible that there will be a big weeding-out when, acceptances fall due to-day.
