SPORTING.

DUNEDIN TRAINING NOTES. [By Telegraph.] [FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Dunedin, February 21. Tho weather being very fine this morning, plenty of good work was done at the Forbury. Ray, as usual, was first on the ground. He sent Templeton, Sinking Fund, and Maritana a good striding two mile gallop, Titania going tho same distance by herself. Dundee went a mile by himself, then picking up Adamant, and finishing another round with the two-year-old at top speed. Camballo (with a light rug on) and Kversley (stripped) were sent twice round at three-qu irter speed. Hunting, don, who looks in the pink of condition, worked alone. Fishhook started by himself, and went a mile, being thon joined by Fene.la, who could not, however, extend the old horse, and the pace made was therefore not very fast. Fishhook went very strongly, and those of his backers who were present were pleased to be able to detect no signs of his repo.ted lameness. Dan O'Brien took Te Whetu three times round the tan. and over the hurdles. Goodman sent Chancellor fully three times in part clothing, York accompanying him part of the distance, and then giving place to Boadirea, while iVlaligner brought the brown horse home. Chancellor went very freely and shook all his companions off wita ease. Play Boy did not work. Minnie was given two miles fast. Mr Horsfall pent Ratcatcher iu clothing and King Quail stripped two miles slowly The Little Lady colt, a big ungainly chestnut with three white stockings, covered a mile or so at a steady pace. Larrikin and Kildare were taken round the tan and over the hurdles. Tommy went two miles at his best pace, but Te Kooti had only walking exercise. Cloth of Gold, Dead Heat, and Vampire had the clothing taken off them, and were sent a mile and a quarter fast, the time for the last mile being lmin. 50sec. Benjiroo and Sir James did a mile or so in company. Mata was on the grooud, but having arrived only last evening, did no work.
