NEW ZEALAND CUP WEIGHTS.
There may be little difference of opinion over the New Zealand Cup weights, but after caroful going over the list, I don't see any serious blunders. At the same time, I think tho compilation would have been lmjrrovod on had Chain Shot and Cuirassier been pub on level terms with Sultan and Recluse, while both Rose Argent and Quilo might have had a few pound? more. If all 13 true that we hear concerning Mr S. H. Gollans Jet d'Eau, the Napier colt must bo put down as the " pick" of the handicap. Although I'm nob partial to mares in the spring, Hilda is nicely handicapped, and the same can bo said of Lady Norah. Landed at the post in his best, Son-of-a-Gun would have a say, bub I fancy the winner will come from one of the three-year-old division. Merrie England, Coiunna, Scots Groy, Dunkeld and Quilt are a quintette of colts who are capable of carrying their imposts even in tho early spring, but until owners reveal their intentions it is useless at the present stage further discussing their individual chances.
