Nominations for the Auckla.d Trotting Club's Summer Meeting are due on Friday at 5 p.m. The Auckland Trotting Cup, of 2200 sovß, 4.30 class, is the star event. No race carries a stake of lesa than 400 soys. Handicaps for the first day. of the Wellington Meeting are due on Monday. Ahuriri is enjoying a short spell after his exertions at Addington. He will soon be in active commission again, however, as it is understood that J. Bryee contemplates taking him North for the Auckland Trottng Cup. After his success in the New Zealand Trotting Cup he will be on a tight mark in future, but the class is 4.30 this year, so that the best horses always have a chance. » D. Withers is not doing much with Great Bingen and Acron a l, present, but they will probably be in action again at; the Wellington Trotting Club's Meeting next month, after which they may journey to Auckland. Louvain Chimes, a sister to Cathedral Chimes, by Four Chimes from Jean Armour, has foaled* a colt to Great Audubon, and she will be mated with Brent Locanda. Louisiana, who won the Waimea Handicap at' the Nelson Trotting Club's Meeting, has not done much racing, but she is a very promising; candidate for niore important unhoppled events. She is a seven-year-old mare by Nelson Bingen from Muriel Dillon, by Harold Dillon from Muriel Madison, an American importation by James Madison, so that she boasts a great pedigree. She is a stable companion of the crack pacer Imprint. Canterbury trained horses did fairly

well on the opening day of the Otahuhu Sleeting. Prince Pointer carried off the big money in impressive style, and Talent in his second attempt paced a very solid race. It looks as if one or two of the other Southerner should get on the winning list to-day. According to one critic, Prince Pointer could have improved on the 4.27 he registered in the Jellicoe Handicap at the Otahuhu Meeting. Apparently the handicapper was of a similar opinion, fcr he placedl the Canterbury horse on a 4.23 mark for to-day.
