RACING CRACKS.
OPINION OF MR STEAD,
.(Per Press Association.) : Wellington, last night
Orloff and Cruciform returned from Sydney by the Warrimoo. The firstnamed requires turning out for 12 months and being blistered, so will not be a starter for the New Zealand Cup. Mr G. G. Stead, interviewed, said he was well satisfied with his trip to Australia. Cruciform ran two great races, and had the worst of luck in the Craven Plate, in which Ibex beat her. All the same Ibex ran a great race. In regard to Orloff, Mr Stead is doubtful if he will race again, certainly not for several months*. As to Australian horses generally, the horses at Sydney as a rule lacked substance, many being narrow and weedy. He admired Famous, Beulah and Wakeful.
