Hyde Park is bright and muscular, but is seemingly not quite at his best, for w.im labouring toward the end of his gallop this morning. Number Two Grass

llenplratur. Red Lion and Importer covered a round in 1.48 4-5, with the tint-named apparently doing best, uvt ;i similar distance Urampton had ball’ a length the better of Patutahi, bui neither was under pressure. ( olden Wedding and Thursby were dispatched from tho six-furlong peg, m* after keeping together for part of the way, Golden Wedding ran right ;K\’;iy from her companion and had four len;ths tho best of the argument at the end. The time—l.l7—was attractive and it is on tho cards the mare will have something to say in the set lenient of the Alison Cup on Saturday Thursby is usually capable of doing a lot better on race day. and litt.e notice can be taken of his track ■•ssiys. Golden Wedding is now off the schooling list. From a stand at the five-furlongs* p«*« Good Tdea, .Neil and Lusoma raced iwty in that order, and with the latter pair on terms that was the manner in which they finished, flood Idea registering 1.7. All three are maidens, and before the expiration of the present taring term they can be expected to so very near to getting themselves from their present class. Cynthia N. ran along over seven furbtnsst returning 1.17 4-5 for the l ist six She was not unduly bustled and ronltrtiave done better. At the country fixtures Cyhthia N. should more than P«v her way.

Stepped out over six furlongs. Vallar disposed of the distance in 1.17 2-3, but he was moving well within himand seemingly could have “clone a lot better. Sir Archie was worked over a cir'■uit on tho tan, and travelling evenly throughout registered 1.56 1-5. On the two-vear-old track Karangapal led Great Emblem over three furlongs in SN 1-5. but there was not a srvit deal separating them at the post. Hampton Park sprinted three furlongs alone In 37 1-3, and did it really Wilt. Whether he will go further is * matter for speculation, but indications point to him doing so.
