■ In addition to the .injuries received by Warstepy the two-year-old filly Marsa, also in Georgo Murray-Aynsley's stable, met'with a somewhat peculiar accident during her, visit. ..to Auckland. ■ While being led by ono of tho stable lads the filly was being troubled by the flies, and in snapping round at them she got a stirrup iron in her mouth. This threw her off her balance and-she fell, but her injuries were very slight, and she is again in ...work .-at Riccarton. A third member, of ■. Aynsley's team, in Stardaticer, slso enmo down when walking into, her box, through coming into contact with' the door, and thus all the members of Aynsley's team sustained more or less' serious falls during their trip north./. ;,,..

Interviewed on board tho Mores, at Fremanile, while on his way to Sydney, the ex-Australian, E. Huxley, who is, an apprentice of R. Wootton, and is visiting Australia with Frank and Stanley Wootton, said: "Yes, I have done well, and last year I had 37 wins in England and threo in Ireland. England is the finest place in the world for racing, s If a jockey has any ability ho can obtain a yearly retainer of from £100!) to £1500,' and' in addition to this yon get- £5 for a winning mount, or £3 for «' loser., If a chap ;gets from 300 to 100 mounts in a year you can figure out nhat-ho makes.'. Then there are also presents -made-" by the ■ owner, which range according to the value of the prizes won and the generosity of the owner..' I won tho City and Suburban two years in succession, and on the occasion of the .last win 1 received a p.pce : al gift of £150. When Frank Wootton won tho Grand Pris of £15,000 ho was gjvc'i £1600." ■■'

Questioned about the report that he was giving up riding to follow tho training business, Frank Wootton said: "There is not a bit of truth in that.
