Midshipman, who is an acceptor for the Victory Hurdles, is a rising four-year-old by Phaleron Bay ; from Grand Lady. This is his sec- ; ond start over hurdles, and he wih . have to- improve to be considered. ! Midshipman is trained at Otaki by j D. W. Quinlivan. ■ Grand Central, an entrant for the j Maiden Stakes, may bring about a j surprise. He has not shown any . form recently, but is capable of a , good performance. Grand Central,: jfrom Helen Rufus by Royal Shot, is ; trained by J. Houlihan, of Otaki. Another entrant for this event is ! the promising young Inflation | mare Sheilwyn, who is a member ; lof L. A. Wylie's stables, Levin. Although she has not raced up toi expectations lately, she may j ! appreciate the long Awapuni . jstraight. "■ I Piccolo and Miss Delaware are the ! only two entrants in the main na-u; event who have interests in the i district. The former is a capabic , handicap performer over this dis-i tance and m,ay be hard to beat. His ■ recent efforts have been over spnni distances, but the middle distancf '■ j- suits him better. He is fronv i Inflation stock and is trained ; in Levin by J. A. Wilson,i and his prospects for rhis even : 1 appear bright. This also applies . ■jto Miss Delaware, who won at her; • • last start at Otaki. She is in uop : ■ form and the Lang Bian mare is a ! - capable performer, and shoulci , ! oarry a good deal of support. Miss ! i Delaware is trained by H. W. Haka- 1 : raia, of Otaki. > Foxada is nearing form and this ! ' Foxbridge mare may soon comi. 1; horq.% .cgwai'ding r frev _ trainer, . C. i ! Mora, of Levin, with a well deserveo win. ■ , , t ! Supreme, a four-year-old mare o> i • ; Broief ort from Fairf ox, is one oi \ ; ! the most promising horses of the i district. She has been resting lately. j 1 but should soon collect a prize. j - 1 The Stewards' Handicap, the j s ! main sprint of the day, draws z. j 'good field in which the district u ! well represented. Listen In has ! failed lately, but the Paper Mone> ! mare is hard to beat when in top form. She is a pupil from J. A. Wilson's stables and her turn is due. i Sir Boswell and Beau Jewel are both from D. J. Burgess's stables at ! Otaki, but they have failed to proi cmce any form that would recomi mend them for this event.
