Labour Day Races at Waverley

INTERESTING FIELDS

GOOD HORSES ENGAGED One of the most important of the minor holiday programmes to be staged on Monday is that of the Waverley Club, which has drawn good fields, of fair class, for the eight events carded. The opening event is the

War Flame showed some pace when she finished third to Rosebush and Panther at Wanganui last month, and as this is the best performance recently of those engaged, the Warplape filly will be well supported in a very weak field. Next is the open sprint, the

Lady Cavendish is to make her reappearance, but although she races well fresh, like most of the Absurds,

she may want a race. Bonogne has run some of his best sprints on this course, and Whenuanui would have a great chance if back to his form of the autumn. Standard is useful, and so, to, is Partaga. Whenuanui and Partaga may be the elect of backers. The jumpers will be seen out in the

Pink Rose and Elysianor have been doing well for themselves of late at this branch of the game, ?rnd they may be among the favoured division in a weak field. Next on the list is the WILSON HIGH-WEIGHT HANDICAP 7 furlongs.

There are not many better hack sprinters than Denier round the Taranaki-Wanganui district, and he reads particularly well in this race. Outside of the Hawera gelding there is Helen, also from the same place, and a speedy mare if she leaves with her field. Next comes the mile hack race, the

Although at Otaki recently Bisox was by no means disgraced, and as she experiences little difficulty these days in running out a solid eight furlongs, she will be the favourite. Romantic will also be in demand if saddled up, but there will be a lot of money for Limosa. An event that always provides a rare finish is the

Of the 13 engaged, Vast Acre, Denier, Eka, Royal Acre, Royal Elm, Mon If - sir, Flying Shot, and War Flame can all go a merry five furlongs, and. this being the case, favouritism will probably rest between the three top-weights-—Denier, Vast Acre, and Eka'
