HAWERA TRACK JOTTINGS

(Special from "Limited.")

HAWERA, This Day.

Several winding-up 'gallops by the Hawera horses engaged at New Plymouth were performed yesterday morning. The plough, owing to recent rain, was. greasy and hardly, fit for fast work. Carfex arid Aga I<han were the only horses to gallop on this track, the outside of the course proper being generally used. V .

The gallop of Aga Khan (Feasey) and .Carfex (Cole) was of little comparative value, but both horses are in the pink of condition. Carfex handled the slippery going better than his companion and finished in front, the five furlongs occupying lmin 5. 4-ssec. .• Diagario (Edgecombe) was allotted strong pace work, working freely. On the outside of the course'proper the pegs were out 33 feet. Daivet (Feasey) and Panlbff (Duncan) were together throughout a trip over four furlongs in 52£ sec. Daivet's effort was his best so far. "." - ? ■

■ Careful.. (Conway) went. a working gallop over a round, running'her last' five furlongs in lmin lisec. Fersen did light pace work-only. Lady JEka went very attractively over half a "mile-'in 52 l-ssec. ' ..''■■■.' '

Exquisite . (Fearn), .Autumn Leaf (Mills), and'the Sandstar filly Passing Fancy went from a barrier, start.over, half a mile. Passing Fancy shaped nicely and was a; couple of. lengths; in front of Exquisite, with: Autumn- Leaf a" similar distance back, in 55sec. '.-■-.

: Gold Gleam was apportioned a solid round, running the'final six furlongs in lmin 24sec. = Ingenuity. (Fearri) .ran home the last two furlongs of her work in 25Jsec. Haryest Moon, (Conway) fin-, ished half a length iii front of 'Qne-. whetu at the end of half a mile, trav-. ersed in 52Jsec. . . ,- ■. • • '
