WRACKEEN
WHEN Wracklcr and Wrackeen were in Auckland to contest the 1928 Northern Derby, Mr. H. F. Nicolls, their owner, expressed the opinion to “Abaydos’' that the filly was just as good as the gelding. Subsequent events in their three-year-old career made it appear this judgment was unfounded, but this season Wrackeen has shown such improved form to give the impression the owner had good grounds for his opinion. The daughter of Wrack—Pansy has this year won at ten, twelve and thirteen furlongs, recording the smart times of 2.47 3-5, 3.21 4-5 and 3.44 4-5, respectively. There should be no doubt about her stamina and the brilliant four-year-old should be quite at home in the two-mile heat at Oamaru.
