ELLERSLIE SCHOOLING
SIR ARCHIE JUMPS WELL J. CHISHOLM’S ADDITIONS A schooling- bout at Ellerslie this morning- which made a favourable impression was that between Sir Archie ; Stanway) and Respirator (R Olive), the pair being- associated over tour hurdles and giving a very pleasing exhibition. Both jumped with confidence and made no mistakes, emphasising the fact that they are making rapid progress in their hurdling efforts. Neither horse is a veteran as hurdlers go and their opportunities have been limited, but they will have plenty of chances in the future with the jumping season at hand. J. Chisholm received two additions to his stable this week, when Waltzer and Furore were handed over to him to prepare for jumping races. The former has lost some of his condition and. may take time to attune thoroughly. Furore is very speedy for a few furlongs, but closes up quickly. A mile and a--half hurdle race, however, may be suitable for this son of Depredation.
Tho latest candidate to join the ranks of tho jumpers is the four-year-old gelding Spring Abbey, who completed a lesson over the pony hurdles at Ellerslie this morning in pleasing style.
