LONG SPELL

Town Guard To Have Year's Rest (From "N.Z. Truth's" Special Auckland Rep.) Town Guard, which had sufficient size and speed to take the eye of dividend-seekers during 1927, is out of the game for some months. LIE Avent wrong some little time back, and his owner-trainer informed "N-.Z. Truth" last week that tho big chestnut would be turned out for the best part of twelve months. This, m the hope that he will eventually get over his present trouble. * ! Eager Rose, m the same ownership, is doing well. She had some fair placed form to her credit towards the latter end of last season. On her work at Ellerslie she should be found gathering m a hack race later on. INCLUDED m the nominations for the New Zealand Cup are Mystum, Arkansas, Sarnia and Kilmoyler. Te gods and little fishes! CATURN made up for his defeat m M June when he won the Bracelet at Hastings on Saturday. Not a bad sort this. VISITORS to Marton next week will find" a few Improvements have been made since the New Year meeting. The judge's box has been shifted to a better location, for one.
