TURF TOPICS. (By "Moturoa.") The weather promises fine for L'-i concluding day of the Wanganni autumn meet. Acceptances are good all round. The programme opens with the Autumn Handicap, in which Golden Grafton reads (veil. She has only risen ilb and has not Cleft to beat. e Moutoa Queen won so easily on Thursday that 91b extra may not trouble her 1 in the Matarawa Hack Handicap. The Jackson Stakes has fined down to n the quartette, Birnctcr 9.0, Hymenestra 7.0, listland 7.0, Birkenvale 0.11. General '' opinion is that the race is only an exei'J rise gallop for Hymenestra, but Taranaki y sports who saw Estland race at Hawera and New Plymouth will doubt it very much. The hurdle race lias filled better than on the first day, and in the absence of Glenoreliy favoritism may rest on Record, who should bo suited by a shorter dis- *' tance. j" Crown Head and Rockfield are likely ' to be well backed in the Okoia Welter. If „.. A „ splendid field will contest the W:ibj ngnnui Stakes, which appears very open. Housewife, Bunting, land Client" are bsing well supported in the doubles. ' Iceberg .was unlucky on Thursday, and should start a warm order again in the jj" Harrison Hack Handicap, .j! Another.fine race should be the Fare-' well Handicap, in which first day's form points to Chakwamv and Tree Lucerne s " giving a good account of themselves. * " >
