FEILDING TRIALS

CEREMONY IS WELL WANGANUI GALLOPS Weather conditions were perfect on Saturday morning when there were a couple of gallops on the Wanganui tracks in preparation for the Feilding meeting next Saturday and Monday says the "Chronicle.” The going on number one track had been greatly improved by the use of a considerable quantity of water on Thursday and Friday as was the intention as soon as the impedimenta from the show had been removed. Ceremony was sent on his first halfmile task since his return from Sydney and the manner in which he accomplished it served to show that the son of Absurd and Pennon is fast regaining that brilliancy which was such a marked feature of his displavs at two years old. A Good Dash With a lightweight in the saddle the bay gelding dashed over the first two furlongs in a tick under 24, and finished in good style to record 48 2-5 for the four furlongs. He went kindly throughout and if he goes on the right way he will.be prominent in the Feildmg Stakes on Saturday, in which v/eight-ior-age avent he has to carry Pedestal and Soviet (Gasbag-Sar-tovna) were associated in a spin over five furlongs, the first named having the best part of 9st in the saddle, while Soviet carried a lightweight They cut out the first furlong in 13, the two in 25, three in 37 1-5 and finished up by registering 1.4 for the journey, with soviet having the advantage at the end. Pedestal, however, was not disgraced. and the Thespian-Eulogy gelding appears to be going on the right way for his Feilding engagements. He has improved a great deal since going to Sydney. Drastic was allowed to bowl along at three-quarter pace and hit out freely. The filly is none the wo.rse for her experience on the trip across the Tasman.

he hops off should go well, while Napoleon is one that will make it a willing battle. Others to make a bid for victory are Kate Logan. Ruth Logan, Ardgour and Warrenore, but when the machine closes the best backed may be Grand Canyon and Napoleon. PROGRESSIVE HANDICAP Of £200; 15 miles

Saddle merchants will be seen in action for the St. Kilda Handicap, and this is just the sort of race for a turnup. Dilnon, Roddy and Wild Spur are good ones on the limit, and on recent form the latter will be hard to head off. Milo Minto and Morning Sun are on 12yds, and a fine pair they are, with the advantage going to the last-named. Marinca on 24vds is one to create a surprise, w r hile on the same peg is the consistent and improving Return Voyage. Mountain Chimes is the best of the back-markers, but the public will probably prefer Morning Sun and Return Voyage. ST. KILDA HANDICAP (Saddle) Of £225; 1 mile.

There is a great field of novice and improving pacers in the ten-fuilong Spring Handicap, and with a big contingent on the front speculators will look to this row for the goods. Brentlight, an Alborn production, is promising, while the consistent Otaio Rose and a recent winner in Sir Guy are bound to be in demand. On track w ork Logan Brae should be in the money while John Appear, Dice, Ardgour arid Tp°^ anda ar e hopeful candidates. The best known of the rearguard are Baron Bingen, Sandy Pointer and Wrackeen, but the fancies mav be Otaio Rose and Sir Guy. SPRING HANDICAP Of £200; 1 mile.
