FROM THE NORTH

(From "N.Z. Truth's" Auckland Rep.) J^ATALiO is a speedy trotter,' but '**' erratic. J. Herring's cinder track is coming m for attention by trainers. They can work wet or dry. # * ■ • A fllly by Nelson Derby taken m hand by J. Shaw looks the goods. # * • Rolfe Audubon looks spic and span, but Derby day will tell the tale. ' ' * * .• Mulwaree is at it again and shows a new lease of life. # * # The season will kick oft! m Auckland next month. # «■ # Etta Cole is stated to have met with a slight mishap. It's to be hoped it is not bad. ■ # «■ * Peter Pirate is m toil at Mangere. He should come early. # * # Some speed fiend is Western Kinsr. You want to 'see him turn it on a.t Epsom. ' # » . • The Te Awamutu team will be worth watching this season. # * * If they don't take a "pull" with Trustworthy they'll spoil a godd one. She's too young to get too much. ) # * » So far Gold Rain has failed to race. Northlands will see if its any good or not. # # # Jewel Pointer's defection from the N.Z. Cup was an oversight on the part of his connections. # • • The recent gale m Auckland dislodged a pane of glass on the stand at Alexandra Park. Had it been raceday someone would now be wearing a halo. • • ft- • • ' , There has been some talk of Koro Peter and Warplane changing hands. At present it does not look like it. # # # Nella Dillon is rounding into shape and a few fast trials should see her cherry ripe. #• ■ • Dad's Hope's first outing will be at Whangarei. : * • • They are not overlooking Concertina. She is m regular work. ' #..■#■■■ # Florrie Bingen has produced a colt foal to Worthy Bond. He's ,a pacer. # * * Up north they still talk Padlock for the N.Z. Cup. '
