' Of -these, ■ form certainly indicates Eaglet and King .March, but Antique should also be among the hard ones. Likeliest read to be Pegaway % and Eaglet.

Among those who will carry good support are. the elect of J. Paul's stable, Awarere or. Honiton, Gold Day, Chromadyne, Eager Rose, and Prince Val, and. to'"reduce this lot alone is;a difficult J;ask. Two who .make definite appeal are Prince Val and Chromadyne. Horses who are in form and who should go well in the other events named are:— Maiden Stakes: Gamp Princess and. King's Archer. Frankton: Hurdles: Lucess and Marble King. Juvenile Handicap: High Comedy.and Soloist, Linley Hack Handicap: Steady-Fire and Indolent. Puketaha High weight Handicap: Havering and Flying Princei Beerescourt Hack Handicap: Snow Prince and Ruling, Chief.
