AUCKLAND R C. SPRING MEETING.

_ Acceptances for the prince of Wjtles''Handicap and Hivr'dle txace, and general entries tor the Spring Meeting of the Auck-, land Kacing .Club, fall due next Friday night. On Orangeman's running ab the Paknranga Hunt Club meeting on Saturday, he must be very hard to beat^ in the Hurdle Hace, but tho Trinco of Wales' Handicap is much more, open,- Leopold is a ho-se that does not like big weights, but tfcill his opponents' will be s,o much of a class that it makes his chance of success a bright one. From what liaglan has done this season I strongly fancy him, and it will not surprise .mo if ho beats the Kohimara,ma representative. Lady No rah has been doinc* good work for several days past, boA it is ques : tionable if she is forward enough to win. \L presume Hilda will not. be among the acceptors, but Cifcgy - may not, "tunf out to be a bad representathe fou - the stable.^ With regard to the two-year : oldi race, "track form" points ' L'o' "Mary being the best ot the youngster?. Major -George will have Miss Cole to represent i him, but although a smart one, ishe is not up to weight-carrying. -It turns' out that it was Coalscuttle who recently met with the miehap, and one of her knees has been blistered, so she will not be seen out. Kean lias Cambria and an Ingomar — Memento filly bred in the Waikato to represent him, -but it will remain for the racecourse to &how what they are capable of. Unfortunately, The JJreamer is suflering from , £>hin • -soreness, and has ' been blistered. j - am told Corunna is again doing" well, so he shall.have my voto for the 'Guineas. Quad-•rarifr-is coming on, but he has not had a sufficient preparation to carry Mr Bobbett's colouiw home fir.->t. Fabulous has b^.ens x troubled with a ".big'knee" I might mention that the public' will be admitted to the course free on bobhdavs of the meeting, so with fine weather the Club should score a success.
