BROAD ACRE'S BROTHER
Sinking Fund, who followed up" a second to Great Britain' in the Hinuera Handicap at Matamala on Saturday, with an easy win four races later ih the __taruru Stakes, is a speedy Acre- three-year-old gelding about whom more,will probably be heard. Prior to Saturday his only racing had been twice at the Tauraarunui Meetingand Once at the Waipa Meeting in December, and at the former meeting he had been solidly backed,in one of his starts. He is a bay gelding from the Husbandman mare Peggy Paul, who belongs to an unnumbered family that has in past years had a measure of success, in the Taranaki district especially. Peggy' Paul did very little racing herself,-but at' the stud she is proving successful, for her two previous gets. Broad Acre (also by Acre) and. Gowanlea (by Sheffield), were speedy horses, especially the former. Sinking Fund, her third offspring to race, was bred by Mr. J. Thorpe, now of Hamilton, and he is owned by the Rangariri sportsman, Mr. B. Clarke, for whom he is trained by J. F. Tutchen at,Te Rapa. He is said to be a shade on the small side, but that "should not worry him for a time yet.
