HUNTERS HAVE OUTING

Over Hurdles Glendowie Will Be Watched j The Hunt Club Hurdles at Ellerslie on Saturday will find a few flat performers of the season down a grade m class.

A S jumpers, punters have no public r\. line to work on. ... Levenside, Roman Abbey and Pulerimu are the most conspicuous ;rio referred to, and if any of these ire really* good at the lepping game hen their prospects may be deeply ;onsidere<3. . . They, all had pace enough to show up m hack events. And pace, is a big asset when it comes to the jumping department- of the game. . Of the others, Importer has been giving- promise, and a, few seasons back lad placed form over hurdles as a recommendation. • . . Geyseriand, from Hawkes Bay, is the pnly real visitor, and he looks a likely sort to show up. . , ' . .. , He was up fourth to Peneus and Ballyfarnon at Hastings m a race that, had the pace on all the way. Prince Papa may do well for a bit. However, the two miles may' prove too trying. . ' !

Fiery Lad, Glenetta and Rafferty claim some admirers m the: class, while if Mashoor - is reserved things will be made merry for a time. There are twenty engaged altogether! and ■ some of these seem sure to topple out, despite the fact that they are qualified hunters. * When 'it*, comes to hunters trying to do their stuff at racing pace it is altogether another matter. Glendowie is top weight with 11.3, and his reputation "as a hunter will claim him a host of admirers. The' race shoulil be decidedly interesting, for Glendowie is giving weight away to some fair hunting hopes m Levenside, Importer' and Pukerlmu. When they loom past the deciding •line, three to be m the picture may prove to be . GLENDOWIE, IMPORTER and puk'erjmu. ;.
