PROGRESS OF DUELLONA
Du.el.lona, .another of the Trenthatni horses that is -undergoing a New Zealand; Cup preparation, is to have her first out-, ing since the New Year at Otaki next week,'when she will contest the Kereihi; Koera Handicap, run over seven'.furlorigs. Duellona has been in work for over two; months now, but "the long.' spell of wet: tracks has prevented her coming on quite1 so rapidly as her trainer (J. M'Laughlin), hoped. However, she is by no means backward, and has galloped, satisfactorily over sprint courses on occasions when the track has been suitable. A race or two should effect a lot of improvement in her, and there is yet plenty of time before November for her to reach her best form. She is bred well enough to succeed at the longest distances, for she is by ChMc's sire, Paladin, from Warlady, a daughter by Martian of the 1909 New Zealand Cup winner, Lady Lucy. This year's will be licr second csiay at the Cup.
