Northern Notes

<From "N.Z. Truth's" Special Auckland Rep.) Eden. Hall threatens to get down Bufflcient in poundage to bob home any time. * # # Ernie George has his team in the Waikato this week-end, and they are mostly ready for the fray. * # # Manly and Branson are eligible to run their hack nominations out at the Waikato gatherings. Both should get some of the money if started in that class. * # # There will be plenty of room on the Te Rapa track for Royal Mint, but he may want the going with him. * # # Dayguard is ripe for victory first time the class is not top-hole. * * * Stick to Dayguard from now on. He may be better than ever this season. * * * If Scot Free is ever going to do the trick he has a show in the Trial at Te Rapa. But he has been a long time bobbing up. * * # If Creation is taken to Cambridge he has his best chance since last autumn. * # #. Bourne, which figures on the Te Rapa and Cambridge programmes, has been off the scene for some time. He is a capable fencer, but has been troubled with unsoundness. * * # Though Slump has been a failure up north, he has more experience over hurdles than most of those entered for Te Rapa.
