NOTES AND COMMENTS

(By Glencoe.) to-day's eicoarton meeting. The''C.J.C.v Krister mectim? will open at Riccarton to-dny. The southern gather,ing does not draw the fields at. this time of tho year that are exnerieucert rt the Kntional smkl Mew Zealand Oun meeting!!. .In the Hurdles there are half a dozen acceptors, and Killhayno. iOrf. 91b.. who was able In win a Jockey Club Handicap on the Hal, may be a better class than the ethers. ~,„.' Taunaha, despite his reported -wind affection, mav be a short-priced order in tho Autumn Plate, in which he is meeting the held on even terms. , ~ The Champagne Stakes should provide a good coiitest"betweon Ohryenstom, liiirht and Left, Winter Wind, and Delight. Tho form o! tho latter at Bandwlck was good, and should sho bo able to repeat it to-day the others will be screly tried before the race is over. . Arrowsmith will no doubt retain Ihb nosition in public estimation for the .faster Handicap, but the imported horse ■ will have to nut up his best effort cf the season to beat Onslaught, who eeema back to his best form, Fiery Cross ;t>id C'jlden Bubble. The fact that the last-named has been nreferred by the stable to Sasanof augurs'well for his chances, and Riiggcsts that he ia back to his sarly spring form. Thero is a big field in the Russlcy Plate for two-year-olds, but nothing read 3 better than Mr. C. P. Vallance's Martian gelding liittle Kiver. In the Gimcrack Handicap lecal backers' may have a preference for Cashmere, who is a useful sort, and is nicely placed in the 'middle of the handicap. ,-■ AT FEUDING,.' There is a good class field in the Kawa ICtiwa Hurdles, ono mile and threequarters. The t:u weight division should be held safe by Zola- and All Talk, each having raced well lately. Tho Maiden field contains two good sorts' in Blackhead, a half-brother to Bobrikolf, and Prodigal, ,a cast-off of. It. J. Mason's stables. Client, 9st. 81b., heads tho list in the Cup, but he. may be unable to concede 261b. to Imaribbon, who d;d a wonderful jallop before leaving Blenheim. Simon has shown winning form .lately, and he may act well over a mile in the- Hack Welter ' Handicap, 'and in the Taonui Hack Handicap, seven furlongs, nothing reads better than Empyrean, who was amongst,tk» winners, at Bulls. " There has been a very big wceding-o.ut in the Mangaono Handicap, only six horses making the payment, and two of them are also in other races. Jutland, who races, well when fresh, and All Over may bo the favourites.Eangitikei form point* strongly to Buddy in the Ongo Hack Handicap, and in the Halcombo Welter Handicap Eorcalis and Kiuscm may be most fancied,
