Some Green Ones In Juvenile

(By "The Toff.") The Juvenile Handicap at Addington is confined to three-year-olds. It is a 3.38 class. AMONG the nuiriber engaged are sev- ** eral youngsters that have never visitea a starter. Qf the front division Silverwood stands out, head and shoulders above the others. Then on 12 yards is the promising Automatic, which went a splendid race at Wellington. Automatic will be a better youngster, and unless something particularly good. is hidden among the unknown

Abandoned THE Western Australian Trotting 1 Association has decided to abandon its Perth championships . owing to there being no entries from the Eastern States of Australia. ' Four New Zealand pacers were nominated, but the Commonwealth organisation, did not think it ad- , visable to depend on the horses from the Dominion arriving m fit enough state to give of their best by March. miiiiiiimim mum iiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiimmtimimmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiii*

entrants, Silverwood and. Automatic should fight out the issue. After the Midsummer Handicap, • a field of horses that can do 4.35 or faster will parade for inspection. On the limit. Sir Author, which is at home over a two-mile journey. But whether he can beat Arikitoa is a horse of another color. Arikitoa is very well, and he raced pleasantly at Fprbury. Further evidence m his favor for a two-mile contest'is his effort at Addington m January, when he ran second m 4.30 3>5. On Saturday next he is on 4*34. ' Threat- Logan also has. to be considered. ' Without commenting on .the others, Arikitoa, Sir Author, x and Great Logan should give the public a good run for their money. On Forbury form, Dipnoi, Nelson Boy, or Bingen Starr cannot have any chance at Addinsrton, where they are engaged m the Cashmere Handicap. Ukelele Lady and Etta Cole are the pick of, the front divisions, . with John Mauritius as most likely to bob up among- . the backmarkers. At Timaru Cyone won a two-mile race m convincing style, and along with Rolex, she should beat the front division's. On 12 yards are Kid Logan and Wrackeen. In all probability Wrackeen will be penalised for her victory at Forbury, but even so, she will have to be reckoned with. The money may be shared among Cyone, Rolex and Kid Logan.
