NOTES. (By "Moturoa.") Messrs Baxter Bros.' Veneer (full t'other to Mahutonga) was suceossil in three events at the Grej'lOuth summer meeting. i It is reported that Mr R. W. I'asrsou intends retiring from the inks o{ owners. Ho has leased the oult mare Solution to Mr W. Maciy, of Stratford, and Messrs Telird Bros, have taken over Lis™, itu his engagements. W. McDonald, formerly trainer for Jessra V. Harris and J. A. Holmes, is accepted tho position of private ainer to the Hon. G. McLean. A singular incident occurred at the angitikei meeting in tho Pukenui elter, the brothers Price, AY., C., id G., riding tho first three horses id finishing in the order named. J. McTaggnrt nan two seconds ith Ngatarua at Bawke's Bay,, one . Palmerston, and two at Woodlie, being l>eaten on each occasion i a narrow margin. Advance is to join J'. Mahcr's able shortly.- If he trains on a,ll ght lie will probably contest, the anawatu Stakes at Palmerston in pril, St. Albert got into a barb-wire nee during the Manawatu meeting, id cut himself about the forelegs'. At Pahiatua, in the Second Hack urdles, Sleepwell, tho favourite, mped into one of the hurdles and ft herself rather badly, notwithanding which sho finished fourth. At the same meeting on the first ly Roseal was made a warm l'ajurito fad the Cup. When lie had mo to tho post a wire was reived from his owner at Greymouth structing lo scratch him. lie is rented to have run well, finishing tin. lioseaj should be worth folwing. He is sure to pick up a ico or two before long. It is stated that the owner of I I,v•ant, Mr J. llannon, had a good in over his gelding's victory in 10 Bahiatua Cup. Douche was very soro at l'aliiala, being the last to finish in the up. Tho connections of Achilies state tat llio Medallion colt is in the at of health. A week ago the H'sq injured his foreleg, but the jury was not ojf a serious nature, id there is every prospect of the icslnut fulfilling his engagement in io Wellington Oup. ; Waitarero is .still suffering from lo effects of tho fall lie had in the airarapa Cup. He ran tho folwiug day a-s the fall did not ap:ar to ialTrct him, but performed idly, and since then has been very iH and soro. It is feai-ed that lie hurt internally, lioris, on the ilolurn journey from -ickland, kicked s o nie of tho .steam's ironwork when travelling |,e'een Onehunga and New Plvmouth, luring his huclc very badly.' He hud bo left behind at New Plymouth, vero tiio Government Veterinary. '' Young, attended to him.
