NOTES AND COMMENTS.
■ ■ riiv Glkncob.l Tlie Oaks will bo run at Epsom, England, to-morrow. All tho. horses handicapped for the two principal races at the Wellington Pony and Galloway Racing Club's Juno meeting liavo mado tho acceptanco. Givon fine. weather, next week's meeting- at Miramar should eclipso previous fixtures. Tho Hon. J, D. Ormond' has disposed of North Head to Mr. Chas. Coleman, of Auckland, for £650, and tho son of Birkenhead left for Auckland by tho Waika.ro ou Tuesday night in charge of his now owner. Though a very wild jumpor at present, North Head is a promising hurdler, and should win ■ many a race for Sir. Coleman. With St. Aidan and North Head sold and Nogi and Audax on tho easy list, \tli9 Karamu jumping team is considerably ro duced at tho present time, but there is a big resorvo force to draw on, tuid probably half a dozen more Birkenheaas will bo schoolod before tho winter season closes. It is stated that tho stable shelters a 17-hands h'orso, who, when he is called-on to jump, will make ovon Audax look to his laurels. ' •
