NOTES AND COMMENTS

IBr Glescob.l Entries, for all handicap events at the Manawaiu' Racing Club's .Autumn Meotlug are due to close to-morrow, at 9.30 p.m. i _ Acceptances for ffie miner events at the C.J.C. meeting, and final payments I'or the GTcat Easter and Autumn Handicaps, are due to-morrow .night. Entries for the Easter meeting of the Greymouth Jockey Club closo on. Thursday, April .5. / _ The Wairarapa sportsman, Mr. Bobert Buick, owner of tlie Welkin horse Three, left here last week to see his horse perform at Randwick. Three' is engaged in the Plying Handicap and Highweiuht Handicap, both of which, are Hun over a. six-furlongs course. At the Caulfield meeting last' month Three was heavily supported in the South Yarra Hnndicap, six furlongs, but after looking all over a winner ,at the distance the last' bit''found him out. On this form his prospects at tho A.J.C. meeting do not appear too bright. The Blenheim trainer,' A Bore, with Heeltap, is expected to arrive here tonight on his way to the Tauherenikau meeting. Heeltap's stable companion Imaribbon was in a bad way after racing on the first day of the Nelson meeting, and she has been turned out for a lengthy spell. It is : stated that the owner of Blairfinde. is experiencing Borne difficulty in getting the Antonio gelding's registration papers, and on this account he is not likely to be eeen out at the Wairarapa meeting, which opens on Saturday. It looks as if the threat of . the Victorian Government to put its foot down on proprietary 1 racing is being headed, for advices to hand by this week's mail states that tho Moonee Valley Club, one of the biggest, if not the biggest proprietary club in Australia, is b«ing formed into a proper racing club. Owners of -raceTiorses will ■ welcome this move, as it . may be expected that the profits will now be devoted to improvements and increasing the stakes. Ther« was quite a Hibernian flavour about the win of Algabohnyah in the Gordon. Steeplechase, run at Caulfield on St. Patrick's Day, inasmuch , as the winner is owned by one Moloney, trained by an Irishman iu S. Casey, and carried green colours. ■It seems'to .'be Hhe. general impression amongst "sporting followers that, to meet the wlslies of those who. aTe crying out against the continuation of racing during the war period, the conference will enneavour to draft a scheme centralising racing, and cutting out a lot of the smaller a gatherings until the conclusion of. hostilities. Fields will be small in most of the events at the C.J.C. meeting, aud it ia certain that in at least three races on the opening day, pnly one dividend will I be paid. Snsanof appears amongst the list of final acoeptor3 for the Great Northern St. Leger, but his inclusion is evidently an oversight. '" Mr. ILow'ry's colt Estland appears amongst the acceptors lor the A.R.C. Great Northern Champagne Stakes, and also in the corresponding two-year-old event at Riccarton. It is generally expected • that, he. -will accompany Desert Gold to Riccarton. ' • . ; The A.J.C.. Autumn Meeting opens on Saturdayi when the Doncaster Handicap, oue mile, will be'decided.' The Sydnoy Cup, Ctw'o-miles, will ,be rim on : Easter Monday. • " .'•• • ./■ ; | FIXTURES. ; j April 7 and 9—Auckland EiC, Autumn.- I April 7 and 9—Wairarapa R.C. Autumn.
