JEAN McELWYN’S FINE MILE

JN delightful weather, before a large attendance and on a 1 pod track the Auckland Trotting Club’s Christmas carnival reached finality on Monday, when another series of interesting: and exciting contests were witnessed.

The splendid standard set on the opening day by the management was maintained throughout the session, and the secretary, Mr. A. O. Mabee, deserves every .praise for the smooth running of the controlling machinery, which did so much toward making the function so enjoyable. The machine handled £53,387 for the day, compared with £70,126 last year, when the final card was submitted on a Saturday. During the three days the sum of £170,301 10s passed through the machine, a decrease of £37,802 10s on last year's figures of £208,194.

Prince Pointer won the chief event of the day, the President’s Handicap, from Kohara and Great Bingen, but lie had all the luck of the race. Through Gold Jacket breaking on two occasions, Kohara was bndly stopped, and Great Bingen also met with interference, and they put up a fine performance in getting second and third. Jean McElwyn proved too speedy for the opposition in the fast mile, and Tiger fc>alve scored a popular win in the Association Trot, in which he was judiciously handled by C. S. Lee. A review of the racing and results are appended.

Commander Bingen Improves All 21 acceptors came out for the opening event, the Tamaki Handicap, and the Ktta Cole—Direct Action bracket came in for good support, with £1,030, and next best backed were Bright Light. £616, and Commander Bingen, £523. The latter went away best, «ieveral candidates losing ground. Passing the stands the first time Commander Bingen was making play from Billy Carbine, Direct Action, Bright Light, Some Jazz and Bingen Starr. In the next circuit Bright Light had gone Into second place, ahead of Direct Action. Bingen Starr, and Anseline. Along the back the last time Commander Bingen was six lengths clear of Bright Light, who was fourth lengths In advance of Bingen Starr and Direct Action, and this was how they finished. Commander Bingen winning by three lengths, with Bingen Starr three parts of a length away. Raima trotted a good race into fourth place, and next were Billy Carbine, Anseline, Peter McKinney, and Gold Star.

Lord Nepean at Last Invader £1,140 and Harvest Child '£796 carried most money in the Park Handicap, while the winner. Lord Nepean, had only £2BB. Gold Dial, Maid of the Mountains, Glandore and Bankhead failed to go off. Admiral Lock, Bingen King, Nelson McCormack, Pitlroa, Lord Nepean and Concertina being the order going out of the straight. Down the hack Nelson McCormack drew out and had a clear lead over Admiral I»ck passing the stands, with Bingen King, Lord Nepean, Pitiroa, Concertina and Kibbonwood's Last following. The favourite moved up along the back, but Nelson McCormack was the first to turn for home, pursued by Admiral Lock, Harvest Child. Bingen King, Lord Nepean, and Invader. Both Lord Nepean and Harvest Child came fast over the last bit, the former beating Harvest Child by a neck, the latter heading Nelson McCormack on the post for second. Ribbonwood’s Last was two and a-half lengths back fourth, being followed by Ricardo, Admiral Lock. Concertina and Invader. KoharaS Bad Luck Cardinal Logan was withdrawn from the big event, the President’s Handicap. and Prince Pointer £2,109. monopolised the market. there being a. pronounced drop to Terence Dillon £1,198, with good prices obtauiuuie about Kohara £869 and Peterwah £6lu. At the start Queen’s Own and Machine Gun got up badly. Padlock going away smartly, but he was steadied. s.nd passing the stands he was with Terence Diillon, half a dozen lengths in front of Gold Jacket. Kohara, Talaro. Queen’s Own, Prince Pointer, Peterwah (.who broke on the next bend). Jewel Pointer and Machine Gun. The field was still bunched in the next circuit, but running down the back Gold Jacket broke and interfered with Kohara and Machine Gun. Padlock and Terence Dillon were still on terms passing the stands the second time, attended closely by Prince Pointer. Jewel Pointer, Gold Jacket (who again broke on the post), Kohara, Queen’s Own,, Talaro and Great Bingen. Three and a-haJf furlongs from home there was only a length and a-half between Terence Dillon. Padlock and Prince Pointer, with Jewel Pointer, Kohara. Talaro, Queen's Own and Great Bingen closing up. Terence Dillon and the favourite were on terms coming into the home stretch, a length in front of Kohara and Jewel Pointer, with Talaro, Great Bingen and Padlock next. Prince Pointer was challenged by Kohara in the run in, but the favourite had a bit in reserve and he won by half a length from the unlucky Kohara, with Great Bingen going strongly a length away third, a length and a-half in front of Jewel Pointer, who went his best race for some time. Pad’ock was fifth, and next were Terence Dillon, Queen s Own, Peterwah and Talaro. The Abbey Goes Right All seven acceptors came up foT the New Year Handicap, and Glide Away £1.751 was a firm favourite, another to be backed being Free Advice £1.369. with The Abbey carrying £ 519. Gold Dial was turned the wrong way when the signal went. Lady Dunmore being first to show out. to lead past the stands from Gold Dial, Jean MoElwyn. The Abbey, Free Advice and Glide Away, there not being hiuch between the lot. The field was again bunched the next time round. Dady Dunmore was still in charge

from Gold Dial, Free Advice and The Abbey, with the favourite last in a bad position. Crossing the top ana turning for home Lady Dunmore hem command from Free Advice. The aobey and Gold Dial, with the tavourstill last. Once in line The Abb y bit the front and went on to win by half a length from the fast finishing tlllde Away, with Whareplana a aimilar distance away third. Fourth, a head away, wu jean McElwyn. and

then came Lady Dunmore, and Free Advice. Tiger Salve's Popular Win Young Blake-Elzear bracket was favourite with £1,548. and Trampfast £1,436 was a good second favourite for the big trot, while there was support forthcoming for Sister Beatrice £1,296 and Tiger Salve £1,170. Trampfast, Young Blake and Elzear were very slow going off the mark, and with a furlong gone Sister Beatrice, Rose Bingen and Trampfast were out of the contest. Tiger Salve was the leader passing the stands from Napland, Tradesman and Ngatira, and in this order they remained for the next circuit, with Young Blake having made up his ground well after a slow start. Young Blake ran up fourth along the back, and Tiger Salve had his head in front of Napland at the home turn. Tiger Salve held his position to the finish to get the verdict by three parts of a length from the big outsider. Nap!*nd (who paid double figures for second), with two lengths back to Tradesman. with Young Blake two and a-half lengths away fourth, after whom came Elzear and Ngatira. Warplane Stays On

A fine finish resulted in the Telegraph Handicap, betting operations favouring Lingfield £1.335, Derby Lynn £1.089 and Warplane £1,014. I>erby Lynn and Keremai lost ground at the start. Lady Barrington making the peace past the stands the first time from Derby Lynn. Warplane, Stanmoor, Reremai and Ricardo. The field was in close order the next time round. Lady Barrington, .Stanmoor, Warplane, Derby Lynn, Reremai. Ricardo, and Daytime being the order. Crossing the top Reremai moved up on the rails, and was lying Just behind Lady Barrington and Warplane at the home turn, these being followed closely by Derby Lynn and Ricardo. In a good finish Warplane won by a neck from Ricardo, with Reremai and Lady Barrington right tip fourth. Next were Lingfield and Derby Lynn. Consistent Giideaway Nine went to the post for the Premier Handicap, investors. placing faith in the Glideaway—Dal men y bracket, which carried support to the extent of £945, the next in demand being Audacious £S49 and Loch Moigh £555. Joy Bird accepted the role of pacemaker throughout, and passing the stand had in attendance Cilideaway, Goldman. Lady Dunmore, Lo*ch Moigh and Audacious. But for Audacious and Gold Jacket settling iin behind Lady Dunmore there was rio change In the order moving along the back However, nearing the turn. Audacious and Lady Dunmore commenced to Irn prove their positions, and as they swung into the home stretch lay close behind Joy Bird and Glidea.way, The Shrew' and Loch Moigh also being handy at this stage. Giideaway held her own in io\e run to the post, to bent Joy Bird by a length. The Shrew, who put in some, smart work over the final stages, being half a head away third. Audacious filled fourth place, followed by Dalmeny and Loch Moigh. Jean McElwyn's Brilliancy The carnival concluded with the Onslow Handicap, a mile heat for the speed kings, and for some unaccountable reason Cardinal Logan, £ 1,609, was made a good favourite over the Native Prince-Jackie Audubon bracket, £1,273, and Great Bingen, £1,060, while Jean McElwyn, a brilliant miior, was only supported to the extent of £641. Nelson Tasker did not get away well, and Dalmeny dashed to the front

and led past the stands from Jean McElwyn, Jackie Audubon, Talaro and Dillon Huon. Turning out of the straight, Nelson Tasker ran up to second place behind Dalmeny, with Jean McElwyn and Talaro next, while crossing the top Native Prince put In a good run. Dalmeny was still in front at the turn from Nelson Tasker, Dillon Huon, Native Prince and Jean McElwyn, but O. Hooper got the latter through, and the little mare finished too well for Native Prince, who just topped Talaro off for second money, with Dalmeny and Dillon yuan next.
