RACING.
The locally-owned Waitapu ram a solid race in the Autumn cap at Masterton on Friday. was last to leave the barrier, but caught his field at the bend, and running on the outsidb,, won easily from Tangimoana and Chatterer. Merrie Rose was next, but the favourite, Strathcona, was done with before the straight was reached. In taking Elevation across to Randwick for the Doncaster Handicap, in which race the champion colt has 9.1 to carry, Mr W. E. Bidwill cannot be accused of faintheartedness. The Doncaster is run over a mile course and usually draws a good field. Mr Bidwill is reported to have backed his horse for a fair amount, and Sid. Reid goes across to steer the flying three-year-old in his Australian engagements.
