WELLINGTON SUMMER MEETING

TO-DAY'S FIELDS KEYIEWED,

Thp Treiltham Meeting will be concluded "to-day. The acceptances are quite int? the average, and the racing should bo good. The llallway Department _ will acrain supply special trains, particulars of which will be round in our advertising colwill be made at noon with the Mungaroa Welter Handicap, ; wlijQl practically the over again, with tho addition of luciizi. •■wlio -won at Foxton on Wednesday.- Retard,' who ran much as he pleased .on. the first day, will have the services of a stronger horseman to-day. ■. may be expected to ho ill the . fiont ranlt at r th'o .finish of the race.— : In the January Welter Handicap, .the publio will probably aflord lleiiura support owing to the lact that_lus "dor was'not unduly hard oil the'black gelding on the first day. Winter Ohcrry is another that should bo better for .the lace. Shgot a bad passage on the opening day, and. then finished ulongsido Heudra. Hyi'ms has been raised 131b., which -should stop him. A newcomer. is Comment,. who failed at Foxton. Hendra and Winter Cherry wills probably have the market to them"outsiii'o of Afleciation and Fluency, who is a big boom, they are a very moderate lot of two-year-olds in the Fitzherbert Handicap, s Fluency has been an acceptor, several times, but has not been produced. However, the public are patient, and when Fluency stops out she will, no doubt; have a big followiiig. ' ••• •• Eewi Poto and Heatlicrcote have been tho public fanoies for the bie handicap since the publication of the acceptances. The'black, gelding will be better suited by the shorter distance, but on first .sigho ho seems very close to Mcncla-us. Heathercote rah a solid' race in tho Cup,' but should be held safe by Kewi Poto. 'None of tho others appear at • their, best ■ just now. .. ' . ■ The Kclburn Plate is the weighl-for-age event. The contest between Croesus, Gloaming, and Surveyor will be interesting. Beeley's mount may be a good favourite, but Crnjsus and Surveyor will have Mason's horse doing his best the whole way. Croe3us ran'a goorl race in the Telegraph Handicap and he is expected to bo prominent, to-day. It can hardly be expected that Surveyor can reverse' the Wellington Stakes form, and Orenideß can havo little chance-with Surveyor at level "weights. By general consent Afterglow lost the Douro Cup when she won the Trial Plato on tho first day. Palm Oil has flow got thrco in a row, and may make it four today. Paddington Green and Cooing arc probables amongst the others.

Forni points to Acre in the Metropolitan Handicap, and the Fordoll horse will have a very large following. Deeley will'take tho seat on ICllboyne, who may repeat his Hiccar'ton form, where ho was not seen on the first day, but later on came out and won in record timo. Silver T,ink' and Birkenvalo will have i-lenty of supporters, nnd the favourite will go to the post paying a better price than would he expected.

The Camp Cun is tho concluding event. Tho field is much weaker than is usually found in hack races oil the local course. Mo'orabbe may again run well, and ■ so should Hymarty. ,
