BEAULIVRE’S PLANS
VISIT TO AUSTRALIA LITTLE LEFT IN N.Z. (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, last night. The horse which won the King's Plate at Ellerslie to-day, the champion three-year-old colt, Beaulivre, leaves New Zealand shortly for Australia. His owner, Mr. E. C. Harnett, the Wellington sportsman, told a Star interview'd- to-day that he will travel by the same boat. “It is hard to say how Beaulivre wall fare in his engagements at this Auckland meeting, ’’ Mr. Harnett said early in the forenoon, “but I have come to the conclusion there will be very little left for him in New Zealand. He is not a big horse and his opportunities here will be limited. I have decided to let him race against the best in Australia and his first start will be in the Futurity Stakes at Caulfield at the end of February. After that he will compete in other weight-for -age races and it is doubtful if he will be brought back to New Zealand.”
Beaulivre will be trained by G. Price, the former New Zealander, who won the Melbourne Cup with Windbag. Mr. Harnett will return to New Zealand in two or three months’ time.
