NOTES AND COMMENTS. TEACK GALLOPS. ACCIDENT TO jr. DEEBLE.

(BY GM.ncok.)

For tlio training oi>erations at Trenthnin yesterday morning the conditions were satisfactory, though tlio weather was cold and occasional light showers of ruin fell. The outside of tho course proper was open for fast work, and the majority of tho horses got through their tasks on that track. The going was oil tho heavy side. A large number of horses had arrived overnight, but there were still several of the candidates in the principal handicaps that hail not put in ail appearance. Of the Parliamentary Handicap horses, California (Griffiths) galloped lour furlongs with Tina Toa in 53sec., and then wont onco round at a slow pace. Tho San Fran liorso is in great heart, and easily heat Tina Toa in tho sprint. North East (Ayres) and N'gupuka (Deeley) finished together at tho end of six furlongs, run in Imin. iiOscc.—a good gallop. Bolliu did slow work. Truganini was pitted against Electrakoff and Miss Advance over six furlongs. Electrakolf easily beat tho other two in limn. 21sec. Tawhaki and Pinul galloped seven furlongs together, tho last live in Imin. 8 3-ssec. Moloch covered a luilo in linin. SGscc. Rose Noblo was better than Scotch Plaid over fivo furlongs, run in Imin. 7 1-Osec. Ambrosian did half-paco work ill company with Beelino. St. Felix galloped in company with Waitapu and Compass, and finished lengths behind tho pair. Compass, top weight in tho Winter Hurdles, is looking very well at present, and moved niccly on tho tracks yesterday. Aiulax was worked, but 'was showing signs of lameness when ho pulled up. Paisano did useful half-paco work, and is apparently in nico trim'. Waiono jumped tho big fences. Tauira was sent two miles on the flat, and covered rather moro than tho full distance in imin. 2sec. Woolloomooloo did half-paco work. Pa'ritutu was sent a couplo of rounds and jumped four hurdles, but did not shape too well at the jumps. Mahuta easily beat Inehbonny over seven furlongs in Imin. 38 l-sscc. Xavier arid Pen de Joic got through useful tasks. Capitol (Deeble), Waione (Stewart), Maidi (Abbott), and Southern Cross wero taken out to jump the big fences.. Southern Cross again refused at tho first fence, and Maidi, though she got round safely, ran across tho course at almost every fenco. Capitol and Waiono kept together over the first five fences, and the former appeared to bo doing his work easily and well until ho ■came to the brush at.tho three furlongs post, where he camo to grief last year. Ho then got his front feet on the 'lop of the jump, and had a very bad fall, rolling partly over on tho lop of his jockey. Waiono cleared the fallen horse and rider safely, and Capitol galloped up the course, but Deeblo was stunned for some minutes. J. Delaney, who was on the track, promptly caught Capitol and rode- bafck to where tho injured jockey lay. When Deeble came to it was discovered that he had fractured his left arm below the elbow, and after first aid was rendered ho was driven to Lower Hutt for medical attention. Capitol was bleeding at the nose after the accident, but there did not look/ to bo anything seriously amiss witli him. Other steeplechase candidates, including Kiatere, Aiulax, Red M'Gregor, Lovell, and Beeline, worked on the ilat. Stayboy, in company with White Coelcade, jumped exceptionally well over the schooling hurdles yesterday, and White Cockades display was fair. Arclight jumped two hurdles twice, shaping well. White Lie was tried twice, but ran off on each occasion. Among the other horses that worked were: Effort, Iranui, Gold Lace, Oxton, Dreadless'. Tiioy, Magneto, Merria Time, Succession, Merrie Emerald, liiflo Range, Valentine,' Wauchope, Seraphic, and Stourton. Tho Auckland jockey, B. Deeley, who arrived .. at Trontham on - Wednesday night, will ride Miss Advance and Stourton in their engagements.. A. Oliver will ride Marathon in tho Stewards' Handicap, and tho Wapping Lodge candidate in tho Trial Plate. Provided Capitol i 9 able to start in tlio steeplechase on Wednesday next, ho will be ridden by P. Brady, who will also have the mount, on Master Paul in tlio hack hurdles. Mr. Wallace, owner of Ngapuka, will arrive from Auckland to-night, to see his liorso compete at Trentham to-morrow. Tho Awapuni trainer, G. Price, uill arrive to-day from Sydney, where he has been on a holiday trip. •Full Cry, Oakley, Goldemar, Moreyfcoff, and Multiple we're due at Trentham last night, in oliargo of J. M'Laughlin. Nero is credited with having easily beaten Andrew Mack in a gallop over a mile .at Napier a .few days ago. It is understood that Wimmora will be started in the Winter Cup at Riwarton next month, if all goes well with him in the meantime. •, Out of eight races for the Trial Plato decided <\t meetings of the Wellington Itacing Club, horses owned by tho Hon. J. D. Ormond have won three and been second on two occasions. Morecambo .will carry the stable colours in the Trial Plate at, Trentham to-morrow. Acceptances for tho Winter Cup, Grand National Steeplechase, and'. Grand National Hurdlo race, also general entries for the Canterbury Jockey Club's Grand National meeting, closo. to-day. On Friday night Inst burglars visited the residenco of tho well-known trainer, 1). Bannatyne, at Ellcrslie. It was just on midnight (says tho "Star") when a lad named ICelly, employed by Bannatyne, heard someone prowling around, and, on getting up to investigate, whs struck over tho head with a blunt instrument, which inflicted a nasty wound and knocked the lad down. Owing to tho darkness, Kelly was u'nablo to see tlio intruders, or form any idea of how many tliero' were, but evidently the visit had been planned, for a bulldog belonging to tho house was found next morning suffering from the after effects of what was evidently a drug administered to quieten him. Fortunately tho burglars wero disturbed before they had 'time to got away with any valuables. FIXTURES. July lfi, 20, and 23.—Wellington B.C. Winter. July 27.—Hawke's Bay Hunt Club's Annual.
