Denver City Real Girl .

In. the Waimairi Handicap, Real Girl should beat Denver City off the limit, but she will need to improve on her Methven showing to have any chance of winning. Tactlessy who was racing on well at Metnven, where he finished fourth m the Cup, should account for Lifebuoy off 12yds. John Jinks, Brentlight, and Lily Harold - are on 24yds, and there should not be much between John.Jinks and Brentlight, Who should both beat Lily Harold. Netta Oro dead-heated with Tactless for second place behind Impromptu at the last meeting and later Netta Oro was second to Impromptu at Wellingtons Baron Bingen went.1 a fine race in the Methven Cup, being third in 4min 35 4-ssec, and he may be pne-of the hardest to beat. Somerby is In. fine form, and can be 'expected to put up a-good race over the distance. Sonoma has the Methven Cup to his credit, but on form his stable companion, Baron Bingen, should beat him. The race should be a good contest, with the likeliest reading to be John Jinks and Netta Oro.
