Playmate galoped strongly in tlie latllurdlcs until tlie straight was reached, v.; , a Te Kanui came away and scored hmd-oniely. The Stewards' Handicap was run in a k :vy shower of raiu, Clem coining in :11 i-a- v v.iimer from Golden Flagle. : was left several lengths at i.tsriirtwiu mule Ms wtvU'J appcavi a:.11 i!i.' po.-t for Hie Welter Hack ai!■ 1 was little fancied after his j mil :>i tl»> Hurdles.

V/e'lmka made amends for his defeat in tiie !• Iviii:,' Handicap by winning the Riilwav Handicap, the opening event of ilie ,1-,'mnl day, from start to finish. St. Amelia ]>rovecl her victory in the >:■ .leu r.u'.iUes was no fluke by easily ili-iiosinu" of To Kanui and Playmate :n Second Hack Hurdles. Gau.:e cut up very badly in the Otiki Hack H.ice and finished a bad last. Lady Disdain proved too good forllonylmhnm in this race, and the others were never i:i Ihe hunt. liob F.arlow got a Hying start on Supp|,.saw in the Trial Handicap, and was never headed, winning by fully three lenu'lhs from Zoraida and Fliyng ind. Waitapu was the neglected one in the Demons!ration Handicap, only nineteen ! ticket-; being taken on Mr Messena s iiliii'X. ni" l William IU1(! T l "' Slake had made the running, the N.Z. fi!|, candidate came with a late run. and after a great "go," beat M illiam iiy a short length. The winner paid 1 false price, d 8 15s. Iluriinoan-i again demons!rated that he w-s endowed with pace by accouat-;-v; •• Turkish Maid and GalaTiad in - , . aini 'A'cller. Marseillaise was pulled out again to contest the Vilectrie Hack Eace and g tin.' nut iir-t was well ,-b-ar of the field aiTtlie w;iv, and was followed by Mr j,.,-vis Ceorge'.; Xcy. . , . Pariiiitu v;;is much admired in the paddock before the \\VH"r Handicap. in which race lie started favorite and justi:;t i,in by scoring with ridiculous iflse from a miserable field. Parituiii w"a; looking the picture of health, and mate many friends for the big race IJVearlon next month. Mr ]>. F, Martin's San ihrce-yaai'-okl, San Fernando, won a double at Xanier I'ark in good style, lb' won each rare with ease, and should I- v.orl ii watchiim later on. Mr C. P. Donnelly's by Seat on Delaval—Formula, ran St. Aidon to a liend in ihe Juvenile Handicap, and on the r-ecoml day im])i'oved on his performance liv scoring in the Nursery Handicap after a desperate struggle with Yoct'van'4 and St. Aidon, only heads separating Ha 1 placed horses. i.inkles's scored a well-earned win in Ihe tlnvniUtanil Handclap.

Southern Cross is now in training at Uiccarton, and is said to be looking - j 1 " X'■ Cup candidate Maliuta has arrived at"Eiecavton. lie will have to improve upon his fiangitikei running to have an show in the Cup next month. '] t is said that Clias.

Xhey are a Sl A U fm-tlier pavnient of £0 in connection with the "X.Z. Cup falls due on Fridav. A g«°d number of the doubtful ones will be .struck out then. Races at Wellington on Thursday and Saturday • , . . T if The New Zealand jockey, L. «• Hewitt, is mostly looking on at races this scar-oil in the Old Country. On two occasions Hewitt tried to cut thin"3 fine and fell in, and a man does not "get a third chance there. He intends visiting India at the end of the year and will return to England in time for next season. Xews from Wanganui states that Ape and Martello arc well forward, and arc expected to make a bold showing when the money is iu. I-'limsiiap lias brightened up considerably since the Wanganui meeting, and is fancied for the Sports Handicap at Trenthiim. Maniopoto is coming on well, liobrikofl' with only (Ist 131b ill the saddle will keep them busy in the Stewards' Handicap at Eiecarton. Waitapu has earned a fdb penalty by his win at Otaki. This brings his weight up to 7st. Thus the Daily Times on Supplements race:—"Mr E. Cameron cannot be complimented for his despatch of the Trial Handicap, for liarlow bad his mount on the move when the tapes were released and she -hot clean on! of the barrier as if there was a charge of gunpowder cxpolding behind, and the rest went off in India file. With an even beginning Zoraida mar have scored again." St. Denis, who in his day was a crack sprinter, is now doing six miles an hour in a cart! Sid. Reid rode three winners at Otaki, viz., Lord fjoiilt, Saga and Lady Disdain. II- Telford scored, a double on St. Amelia and Hector Gray scored a like distinction on Ilurimoana. A. Olliver had two wins, and C. Jenkins, P. Lind, JE. Cameron, E. Harlow, W. IT. McKay, 11. Hatch, and E. George one each. A London writer thus severlv handles Xoclu'forni: —Ho confirmed the bad impression at Xewbury that he created at Ascot, and he must be set down as one of I hose horses with idiosyncrasies whom the blunt of speech called "wclsliei'9." One is sorry to have to write in such depreciatory terms of this costly creature, lait there it is. One of Carbine's sons, i lt Fowling Piece, has started to make a name for himself as n sire. One of his get, a filly named Galore, was successful in the ilnrdwicke Stakes, a two-year-old race, 1 run at Stockton fast month. The Mexican Federal Government pro--1 po.ses to set a>idc a sum of £20,(100 for the .Mexican Derby, ami it expected that * the first race will be run in 11)10.

A rather novel point of law in connection with racing was argued in England * recently. .Judge Jlaeou decided at s I'loom-litny that a man who paid : racing tipster for "certainties" was en '• titled to obiaiu his money back if tin 5' horses |ost, Mr George, Cowen had ; -1 letter from A. li.
