It made me think of some of the races vou read about in Nat Gould's ' books. "()n the other days Trafalgar won tho weight-for-age races all tho way. I think he is the most popular horse racing at'the present time. Tim crowds go simply mail over him. He is such a„"shoddv" looking animal to look at, too, and goes along with- his head down. All the .Melbourne peoplo call him "Ginger."

Sir. J. Harlc's 1 orses Matapouri, Makara, and Byron will all be engaged at (he Hastings meeting next week. The first-named two will ho ridden by C. Price, and A.

Rector Girl, and Matlow were shipped to Picton yesterday, and will be tile runners at the Marlborough meeting next week. Tho Arahura, which leaves to-day, is taking no fewer than fifteen horses, and the Pateena, on Monday, is also a full ship. The successes of Bronze have prompted "Mr. Highden" to experiment further with Field Battery as a sire, and the whole of the mares from tho Highden stud, including Persimmon's daughter, Perolina, aro to bo mated with tho Hotchkiss horse this year. Elfish, who has shown good form in hack events lately, is to be tried in higher company next week, when tlio Birkenhead gelding is to contest tlio Hawke's Hay Cup. ne has the minimum •, impost, but will put lip a i'ew pounds overweight to secure the services of H Griffiths. .

Tlio last-named jockey is riding in such form (his season iha'i: it appears as if, by tlio end of the season, li" will have been up on more winners than have ever previously been ridden by one jockey in one season In Now Zealand Soulhci'ii slate that Bellah. showed capital form in tlio Timaru Cup, being only beaten by a length after making most of the running. An English exchange says that Lomond continues to hold his ground firmly as tavnurilo for the Derby, and it may surely bo taken fur granted that he will fulfil one or more of his engagements between this and then. As even if not indulged with an eye-openPr at Aintree, other eliances await him in the Chippenham Stakes at the first spring meeting and the Newmarket Stakes and Payne Makes at the second. White Star has not been quite as /inn in the market as he was before the mild see,re caused by sliglit lamene.-,s, consequent on treading an a. stone at exercise, but a couple of days' rest put liim all right again, ami lie is going on unite to the satisfaction -of all concerned. J. E. Pike, who rode Trafalgar in liis races at the recent A.J.C. meeting, lias been engaged to pilot the champion chestnut in his spring engagements. It is considered possible by some Australian writers that Gunboat's defeat in the Sydney Cup 011 Easter Monday was due to the fact that his rider was not at home 011 the right-handed going at liandwick.
