« A WELLINGTON RACING CLUB. AUTUMN MEETING AT TRENTHAM. ABORIGINE WINS THE HANDICAP. ' ANOTHER WIN FOR PROVOCATION. Unsettled weathor yesterday considerably affected the attendance at tho Wellington Ra3ing Club's Autumn Mooting, which commejhced at Trentham. Showers fell in tho city'in tho eaily morning, and, overhead, tho outlook' was anything but promising. By tb!©'timoi the first train left for the racecourse, there were indications that tho attendance would not be largo, for seating accoihmodation was to bo had without any I trouble. There 1 were very few people on * the course for tho first race, but tho crowd ■was- supplemented considerably by the train which' arrived just before the running j>l tho THpmpson Handicap. A moderate gale prevailed, throughout tho afternoon, and soft jhowers fell at intervals, but they were scarcely sufficient to damp tho enthusiasm nf'tho.spectators, on tho total-. Isatbr was brisk, and the total investments ior the day show a slight increase on the total for tho first day of last year's fixture, while, in addition, tho club received license fees Jrom twenty-three,bookmakers. ' The 'going on the racing track was good, stood tho racing well, jjood times being recorded in all ,the events. Fields were above thb'averago for an autumn meeting, and ; in the Thompson Handicap, no fewer than eighteen' starters went to the post. Aborigine, who 'recently won tho Easter Handicap at Ellerslie, took tho lead from the rise of tho barrier, and was never headed. He was - ridden by A. Oliver, who arrived from Sydney, early yesterday morning. In the North Island Challenge Stakes, was mado favourite, but Provocation 'commenced too quickly for him, and' managed to s|ay long enough to beat tho Finland gelding. Backers 'had rather an unfavourable day, as only ono actual favourite prevailed in the eight races, though the best-backed candidate finished second four times. Courier fell half-way up the' 'straight in the Railway Handicap, but his,irider, escaped with a severe shaking. This x was the only accident that occurred.

At the six-furlongs post Aborigine was leading from Los Angeios, Sandstream, Perolina, Roosevelt, and Sir .Tristram. Thoro was practically no chango m the ordor until naarmg the three-furlongs post, where Roosevelt and Sandstream dropped back and Consolation and Master Soult ran up towards the leaders. At tho bond into the straight Consolation had run into second place,behind Aborigine, while Sir Tristram -. was third, and Flitaway was making a rtfn on tne extreme outside. Aborigine, however, came on full of running', and won easily by a couple of lengths from Consolation, who was a similar distdnoo in front of Sir Tristram. Master Soult was fourth, and then followed - Csar Kolohol,' Sunbonnot, and Roosevelt, while Sandstream and Effort were last'to reach the judge's bos.

: ■_.!, NOTES ON THE:RACING. Exmoor was a great hurdler when in his best"form a couple of seasons ago, but, after a severe accident which he' met'.with, it was feared that hewould not regain his brilliancy. In f,he spring of the present season he won a couple of races, and now he appears to be gifted with his former dash; for he com-pletely-burst up the field in the hurdle race at Trentham, and had the race won from a mile upwards. Whatakura, who has been showing fair form lately, was made favourite, but he, had no chanco with Exmoor, and had te;bo content with second berth. Kairoma, who was making his second appearance over the jumps, fenced proficiently, and, with a little more racing,; should prove equal to winning in the best company. Paparaehi was prominent for a mile', but died out after, that, and finished last. , ..' The starting'gear went wrong at the seven furlongs post, and the field in the Waiwetu Handicap had to bo dispatched with a flag. The.race,'resolved itself, into a contest between Martyi'ium and Toa Tuhi, this pair leading throughout. Martyrium looked a winner at thedistance, but Toa Tuhi disputed every inch at the finish,. and just got up in time to win by a head. - Toa Tuhi'; resents Doing hit with the whip, and his rider had to sit quite still .'while the Conqueror gelding fought out,the finish in his own ,way. Maibra, the favourite, ran disappointingly, and, though ho showed up' on the outside, at tho straight en±ranoe,; : he never looked, really dangerous. '\; . . V ' Though Miss Mischief had only arrived at Trentham yesterday morningj' tho-travelling was not considered likely ,to prejudice her chances in the Silverstream Handicap, and she';, was: consequently installed, a hot favourite. She certainly stood out on the score of condition, arid, when it camo to the race, sho had a runaway victory. Donovan nursed her; through the race, but' she gained her. head'jn the last half furlong, and ran right away;from the field.' Waiwareware, who was second, favourite, failed,to gain a place. ■ Whistlecraft and Maiora, who had-both started in the Waiwetu Handicapj were; the: only withdrawals' from the Thompson Handicap, field. With a'.couple of exceptions, the eighteen starters were a well-conditioned lot, •the.candidates at the top of the handicap looking especially fit to undertake their.tasks. Los'Angeios arid Master Soult. were tho.two favourites, and Flitaway, Sir Ti-istram, and Aborigine were next in demand. Mr. O'Connor made a satisfactory start, and,A. Oliver, who can, generally be relied on to be first away in a big'field, soon had Aborigine in his stride. Tho; Merriweo; gelding lod all tho way, and, when the.straight was reached, l it was plain that he was going as well as-any-thing in tho r^ice.:' He'finished strongly, and won with plenty in reserve.; This is his fourth victory over a mile course this season, and in the Hawke's, Bay Guineas, he was only beaten by a head.' All his performances considered, he was, perhaps, . the best treated horse in the race yesterday. ..Had Master Soult been fairly .beaten in."tho' Easter, Handicap at Ellershe; he would not havoheen so well supported,yesterday, but he ,was regarded' all,along ,'as being unlucky at tho Auckland meeting. Probably the real solution.of the form is that. Aborigine, who was suffering from soreness' in March, was not thoroughly wound up at Easter time, and has; consequently improved, during the past week. -'■ '•'•.,. '■ ' ;;'-'■ ,-' .'■' ■•"

; : Consolation fan a sterling race, but she had a-bad position in the early stages, and was jrather late in setting catch Sir Tristram, too,, showed4good form, but he was beaten by. a better, horse. There cannot be much excuse for Los Angeios, for M'Cohibo always, had' him in a handy position^-and he had every chance to show his brilliancy. He finished, behind,\ Czar, Kolohol, ,who, some argued, should hdvebeaten him at'Riccarton.' It .is.:'interesting 'to. note that Los Angeios was paying a much-better price on the totalisator than the bookmakers had been offering against him. a week before'.the race.? Flitaway, who. raced, in the ruck in the'.'early stages, put in a short run at the home bend, but. failed to sustain it:'.-. Master Soult; was evidently troubled '■ by his weighty and tho going not;altogether suit-.him. Excepting Sandstream and Perolina, who raced well-for.-five furlongs, none of the others, had.a winning chance. ■■!,- '.; Bobrikoff Was made a warm favourite for the Challenge Stakes, but he was slow to commence, and Provocation got a break of three lengths or : more. Bobrikoff made a game' effort to overhaul the: two-year-old in the -straight,, but ho was unequal, to the task; It appeared as if .Provocation interfered with Bobrikoff by swerving out inside ' the ■ distance, but it perhaps. did not 'affect the result. .Provocation ,has probably run his last race as, a two-year-old, and he can certainly lay claim to being tho best of. his 1 year-;.' ■■/.. '.'" ";';. .■;.. ■ ' . ■'■ ..... Past form considered,; it looked as if Nautiform would have an easy victory in tho Plunket Nursery, but ho was unlucky at the start, and; Xylophone was two lengths ahead in the .first furlong. Nautiform 1 got alongside Xylophone in the; straight, but ho did not finish generously, and suffered defeat by a head. Xylophone is fitter now than ho was in tho spring, and the going yesterday just . suited him, for there was no sting in it. : Courier is not a brilliant beginner, and that was why he was beaten yesterday. He never oame on the scene until the, last; furlong, and, in trying to make his run on the rails, ho was .shut. out. .Deeley apparently pulled him out too suddenly, and tho horse crossed'.his,legs and came down, throwing Deeley. against a_ post. .Luckily the jockey escaped will nothing more than a severe cut on the head, and Courier was not much the worse for his fall. Mon; Ami took no part in ;the but she came with an irresistible run in the straight, and won easily at the finish. Gipsy Bello was a winner at five furlongs,' but she finished out of a place. It took Mr..O'Connor some time to dispatch the field in the last race, and eventually Miscast. was left.standing at the post, while Illustrious and To Ru got something tho best,of;the start. These two travelled very fast over the first half-mile, with the result that both wore in trouble long before the winning-post was reached. Nyland, who was favourite, put in his| claim at tho distance, but, as on the second day of the Feilding, meeting, he failed to see out the journey. Hilarian, who showed improving form at Tauhorinikau, was well supported by-his party; ;Ho isa strong finisher, and Ayres relying on his finishing run, did.not call 011 him until inside tho last furlong, when ho had too much pace for any of the others.

HOME FROM .SYDNEY. By, tho Manuka, whjch'arrived from Sydnev yesterday, :Mr. J. Whitworth'g filly Arti'llerio", which "was taken to Sydney to compete at the Australian'.Jockey Club's .'meeting, was brought homo:in', charge of her trainer, J. AV. Lo\re. A. ; Oliver,, who won't over, to ride tho filly; also returned,.and, journeying on to tho Trcntham races, arrived in time to ride ■the..Winner'- of,tho Thompson Handicap. Seen by a reporter after the race, Oliver was naturally pleased with his victory, ,as ho had no luck on the other side. Ho stated that lie had no engagements. when he left for Trantham in the morning, but Aborigine's

I trainer, T. Quinlivaii, had seen by Tuesday's Dominion that lie would, bo present at tho meeting, and.was waiting on tho platform to secure him when the first train arrived; Discussing tho race itself, Oliver stated that Aborigine had it won at almost any stage. Ho knew Sandstream was handy three furlongs from home, and Master Soult ran up towards him in tho straight, but Aborigine drew right away when called on. REEFTON RACES.
