NOTES' ON THE RACING. \ .(By Telegraph.—Special Correspondent.) Feilding, Npyembcr, J29.-... , Results at-the Feilding meeting were '-very difficult 'to anticipate, and tho • majority (if backers-fared. badly..'--Tho-"Jflyiiif! Handicap and tho St. Andrew's Handicap were, both, splendid'contests, -bllt the Stakes was a one-horse raco tbo whole way. There were 16 runners in tho'..''Trial Plate, and though they were out for ; /soine time, they .gave -very littlo troublo; ; a t tho barrier, .and a Rood start' was t'lfected. Tho quick beginner,. Martlet" soon rushed to: tho front," but" Ardent— -n pronounced favourite—was in second -place at the end of a furlong, and caught the leader at tho bottom of'tlio •'.straight. He lield his own comfortably jn the run home, and won easily.' Play ' Oil' got second place iit the last- few • strides, and then came Rigo "Park, Martlet, and Innoladdo. Sanguinary was favourite ill tho Fl.y- - -ini' Stakes, 'but sho and several others had bad luck at tho barrier, and their chances were spoiled. At tho start-] Eocene jumped out in front, but Per- • mi ilia soon took charge, and : led from • Astor, Le'apuki, Lady Louisa, toceno, and Our King, with a break between them and tho next division. At tho straight entranco tbo field closed up, and Peronilla gave way to Astor. At tho distance, tho field, bunched and m tho last fifty yards, Lady■ Volga, .on tho mrtsido, sliot out, and won by a length. Koceno got a lato run ny beat Astor. Totikura, Lady Lou.sa, ratron'ale and Lpapuki were tlio next to finish- I'atronalo canjo from. a ;loijg way

back and, with any luck at the barrier, ho would have won. Several of tlio runners were evenly backed in tlio St. Andrew's Handicap, which was a good race, and interesting throughout. At the start Manawkaha alid Con the Shaughraun lost several lengths, awl Peroneal took ft large from Awaliou and Multiply. the leading positions wore practically the same for the first-. mile, but then Odessa snot out,, and Lady Laddo'moral lip, and was alongside Odessa as tile straight was entered. Sho held her own ill the riuv homo after resisting a stout challenge from Master Laddo and liirklino, who came from a long way back.. .Multiply showed up till well down the,': straight when, he collapsed, and probably wanted a race. Ariom was prominent after a milo had been covered, but was then done with. Leonta was running on well at tlio finish,.-and*so was Otahu. The pair werO-'jlisfc 'behind Odessa. ".'Tho Spring Hurdles wont to Flingot, who is now a much-iniprovcd jumper. Ho was kept in the rear till tho last half-milo/ At tho last fence, however, he took off with Darby Paul, and in the run homo won easily. The early'.'ru'iiuing was made by Windage, W,ai'p\iteit', and To Wlietu, but, when it"camo 'to actual racing, nothing had a chance -with Flingot. Fagot and Hlmitangi'. wero tho last to finish; , . Bankers, were very much astray, in tho;.Hack Hurdles, in which' thethrco placed-horses were outsiders. Papalitz idisplayod-.-a great aversion to thobbarr r ''n'b'r',- I 'ahd-was left altogether, and TnihAtW'.a'lso 1 lost a lot of ground. Tlio

I , l)i)'ori'' l 'i"rn.ro jumper, seta great pace for ten-;; furlongs, when l'ikihou got up to iiini and wore him down. Once over tlie-. last fence Jackman came very fast, and won by a length from Rexei'7 with Ibliar and Pikihou next. A heavy shower and. hail fell just as 1 flic horses w;cre going out for tho Feild- ' frig Shakes. Brocade put up 71b. over'weight .'to securo the services of W T . Ildli 1 ." 'The filly started favourite, with Randier#, fliid Postillion well backed. At the start Ermengardc dashed off in front, and was not- headed. Brocade 'and"Gipsy Bcllo Wore together ill second,'pJaco to tho turn, whero Oladioie and Bandiera moved tip. Gladiolo, however, was unable to reach Ermengardc, ..who won comfortably. 'Tlio Th'int'horse—Espcet—was clear of .Bandiora.', Brocade stopped to nothing in the straight, and sr> did Gipsy Belle,- and Naumai was badly left. - "MivSkipwitb got a field of fourteen away..to'a. splendid start in the Kiwi'tefi'WettbV Handicap. Settler was tho first"take ehargo of affairs, with Waipaku close up. The field was well buncKod'.' and. at four furlongs, the ,order was still tho same. Entering t]io ;home turn there was 110 alteration, but, 1 a. hundred yards from home, positions changed rapidly, Fair Rosamond arid •' GloriFern coming up with Draft, who.was.fji.vourite. Fair Rosamond. Glen•fcrn, and Settlor fought it. out, tho .-first-named, winning by almost a length, half a length separating second and third. . Ngatimarn was fourth, and then panic Jargon, followed hy Draft. , : Fifteen-horses started in the Fitzro.v I Hack Flying event. Dekklio was first out, hut. Grattan was hadlv left. Dekklio led to .the homo bend, closely followed by' Epworth. Bortrada. however, made a good run homo, winning by a length, with Epworth a head behind Heather. '''
