[By Glencoe.T Owners are reminded that acceptances » for tho Hawke's Bay Winter Meeting * first day's handicaps closo on ilondaj J next. Entries for the Gisborne Racing Club's -, Winter Meeting are due on Friday night, The Clanrauald gelding . Glenlinnan, who was sold to "Hr. S. A. I?awdon, of Victoria, for SOOgns., won his first race for his new owner at the Oakland; i Hunt Club meeting, when he scored ii :, the Springbank Corinthian Handicap. J The committee of the V.A.T.C. decided { at a.recent meeting that the entries oi a one-eyed horses should not be accepted ; for future meetings of the club. The "Age" (Melbourne), commenting on the subject, says:—"A similar decision was arrived at in Sydney some time ago, aud t in all probability the fear that a few horses from the adjoining State may en- - to the ranks here has caused tho clut I to pass such a resolution. The decision ■ will preclude Wingarara, Blind Harry, ■ and one or two others from competing in events at Caulfield in future." : That usually safe jumper Jackman came to grief in the Winter Steeplechase ' at Ellerslie on Monday, when looking tc , have winning prospects. The Feilding'l trained animal will probably make his next appearance at Trentham. ; l'or the first time for live years the aged Jet D'Eau geldiug The Chief will r not be amongst the runners for the t Hunt Cup Steeplechase at the Hawke's II Bay Winter lleetiug. The old fellow 6 scored in this event three times. C Judging by the form he has shown sc far in tho Dominion, the importec Heather Mixture does not appear to b( up to the average of imported horse.;. He competed teu times unsuccessfully in 1 England before being purchased by his 3 present owner. ' The Gisborne horse Toki (llultifid— ", Maura), a winner on tho concluding diij J at Ellerslie, is well spoken of as a galloper. He defeated a good favourite in Kauri King when ho won at Ellerslie, and he promises to be handy at the g finish of the Winter Handicap, once f round, at Hastings. l Tho old black gelding Makau, whe i changed hands last month for. .£7, i; engaged in both the hack and open steeplechases at the coming Hasting; 3 " meeting. 3 During the progress of the Auckland s meeting an offer was made for the Kac l-amu hurdle gelding Vascular, but the i reply was received that he was not foi . sale. j Deturned visitors from the Auckland , meeting state that iu addition to the a breakdown of Morecainbe already Teporti- ed, three other steeplechasers—in Water D works, Borcola, anel Sportsman—weiil wrong, and will be missing from" tho nexl few meetings. The Blenheim-owned Ivillaloo and - Margarita are being shipped to Sydney e to-day. The pair go in charge of W. j, o Porter, and 11. Lorrigan goes over to dc i, the riding. e Kockabye (Birkenhead—Lullaby), wlic l ' was one of Mr. H. Gaisford's purchase; s at tho Karamu disposal sale cighteor '1 months ago, has so far failed to win ? s stake for her owner. In several of liei a races she has showed speed, but she '■ seems lacking in stamina. At presonl " she is being spelled in tile paddock, ant 8 her trainer is hopeful that, with the ad ■' vent of tho new season, she will dc 'J better. . The Field Battery horse George changes bands yesterday. Ho has been purchaser by a patron of tho Porirua stables.
