Sergeant Jack has been spelling j and he probably will rcturn to rac- i ing on the second day at Awapuni, i Beau Cheval ' showed nis cass in Australia by winning one race and being placed in three other events. He was only unplaced twice and this is quite a good record for the Beau Repair horse. It is stated that. he will go to his owner's stud and Yake up his duties there. palihness who has disappointea of late, is at present schooling as a ■hufdler. Her efforts are reported to be not so bright, but she may lmnrovte Master Robin is stated to be on the sick list, as he hurt hiinself when returning from the Auckland i meeting last month. It' is „ hoped that he will soon return, as he may be a good proposition for further winter events.

' Lowry Bay has good pace eany,; but usually fades out at the bus- j iness end of the race. A shorter : distance may suit him, but the Fox- i light gelding is getting no younger. > The outsider, Mary Lee, who sco'red in the Raukawa Handicap, ls a four-year-old mare by Illumination from Caput Luse. She showed that she revels in the soft going and she may collect a pnze oefore long, as her race suggested this. Panope should score soon as her race last week was very promising. The Foxbridge mare is well bred on che right lines to make good. High Ideal, who finished fourth in the main sprint event at Hastings was always prominent, but seemed to have nothing to call on in the straight. He has shown this before, but may improve soon. Flying Hawk ran well enough last week to suggest that he is entitled so attention in his Awapuni • engagement. This Lackham gelding is almost due, and it may b6 i wise to respect him.
