JOCKEYS’ MOUNTS

; AT TE RAPA TOMORROW PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES With splendid fields engaged at the Waikato Racing Club’s meeting tomorrow, there is plenty of scope to enable jockeys to secure a mount in every race, excluding the hurdle race, of course, which is practically confined to horsemen who ride over timber only. Usually there are few yoexeys from j outside provinces following their pro- ! ression so far North, but with great opportunities for plenty of riding there ; will be a number of Southern riders i at Te Rapa. Owing to trainers not having completed arrangements for horsemen, a complete list could not be obtained, but the following gives some of the more important engagements: R. McTavish .—Tremetus, Corinax. Land Measure. Standfast. Volimond and Spring Abbey. L. Manson.—Gold Money. Eager Rose, Crown Arch, Hampton Park and Avon Court. A. Parsons.—Antique, Flying Juliet,

Sweet Whisper and Lapaway. R. S. Bagby.—Le Choucas and In the Shade. K. Voitre.—Mithra, King March and Vali. A. Tinker.—lmamint. J. McLaughlin.—Tradesman. E. Tuohey.—Mosaic.

B. H. Morris.—Vertigern and Count Palatine. C. Goldsbro’.—Lady Quex. H. Wiggins.—Gemliglit, Perennis, Rafflight and I’m Alone. W. H. Jones.—Gay Cockade, Wild Time. Quinsilia and Te Atiawa. J. Cammick.—Vital and Rawhetu. L. Dulieu.—Abbey Dream, Royal Visitor and King Willonyx. H. Gray.—Leitrim, Pompieus, Te Hoia and probably Oil Top. A. McCormac. —Bright Land. R. Olive.—Kawini. J. Burgess.—The Lamb. J. Conquest.—Footrule. E. Garrett. —Glena Bay. R. E. Thompson.—Master Roley. C. France. —Desert Glow, Prince Val, Biddy’s Boy, Nassau Lady and Value. T. Webster.—Prince of Orange, King Ford, Luminary, Kingsland and Kingfield. F. Foster. —Glenstar. NOT TO START REFRESHER AND CHIEF JOY In five out of the eight races to be decided at Te Rapa tomorrow Takanini trainer J. T. Jamieson has two strings to his bow, and more to the point, the dual combinations give every indication of participating in the finishes. However, three of the prime fancies will forgo their engagements, it being the intention to withdraw Chief Joy, Sea Cob and Refresher. Even with the scratching pen put through these names trainer Jamieson still has a strong hand, and he is worthily represented with King March (Juvenile Handicap), In the Shade and Mithra (Storey Memorial Cup), Le Choucas (Puketaha High-Weight), and Vali (President’s Handicap). By reason of his win in the Wanganui Cup and his subsequent good form at Te Aroha, where he was unlucky, In the Shade has a big following in tomorrow’s mile and a-quarter, and with 5.7 he is favourably handicapped to run a really good race. Mithra is in on the minimum, but the journey may find her out. A mile would be more to her liking. Two others with big chances are Le Choucas and Vali, while in the two-year-old race is King March, another youngster from this quarter referred to as very promising. Yes, again it seems a good meeting for this stable.
