Junction with fhe Auckland acceptances should prore a fairly Tellable guide as to owners' intentions during the holiday season. Client, Punka, Marqueteur, Battle Array, Hose PlnS, Hurry Up, and Moutoa Ivanova hare bad their Manawatu Cup engagements continued, but hare heen withdrawn from the Auckland Cup, while Acre, Croesus, Onslaught, Statuette, Bonny Briar, Ermine, and Jutland have all dropped out of the A.B.C. Railway Handicap In favor of sprint engagements at Awapunl. The Manawatu Cup, which la worth a thousand sots, this year, has drawn an acceptance of nineteen, and they are a good even lot. Client heads the list, and usually races well at Awapunl, but he Is getting no younger, and races over a mile or a mile and a quarter appear to be more to his liking nowadays. Pnnka has not shown much form of late, and 8:9 may steady her etfectlrely. Nobleman la another that has a liking for the Awapunl course, and provided he does not hare a return of the bleeding which militated against bis success at the New Zealand Cup meeting be should prove very hard to beat Kllrush is a rather In-and-out performer, but Is a good stayer when In the mood. Crenides, who won at Woodvllle, is liable to be rehandicapped, which may put him out of court. Dribble may find the distance beyond her, and will be better placed in the Grandstand Handicap. The most dangerous division appears to be the middle-weight one, and In First Salute, Battle Array, Athens 11., Marqueteur, and Hurry Up the winner may be concealed. On paper the chances of Nobleman, Athens 11., and Hurry Up look as bright as any. The score engaged In the Fltzherbert Handicap want for nothing as regard quality, and. the race looks very open. On Fending form one would expect the top-weight, Acre, to, futysh In front of Onslaught and Croesus, but Walmatoa, Maloha, Jutland, and Adtnyra can all travel fast, and much depends on the starting, which, by the way, has been anything but brilliant on the coast, recently. Acre is such a classy horse than 9.6 may not trouble hint, but he will not have much on Jutland, whose rnnning ; on the second day at Feildlng cannot be accepted as correct Gang Awa' promises to show up in the hurdle races at the meeting, and Nursing Sister, Tessaress, Festival, and Brackenfleld may be prominent in the minor events. The gathering extends over three days, so that ttaet* should be ample opportunities for all. ABBOWSMITH. The seemingly harsh treatment meted out to the Imported horse Arrowsmlth (Chaucer— Safitta) by the Auckland handlcapper caused the prompt scratching of the horse for spring and summer engagements Is the north, and his owner Mr. Heslop, took strong exception to Bis noddy being called upon to give large lumps of weight to well performed sprinters with good wins to their credit One horse singled, out •for comparison was Lord Kenllworft, who, when he won a seven furlongs race at the A.B.C. Spring meeting, was assessed as a 211bs. Inferior animal to Arrowsmtth. How, lever, Arrowsmlth Is a perfect gentleman in appearance, and of his quality there Is no doubt. On Wednesday he was saddled up at ! Woodvllle, where the handlcapper had awarded (him 18 In the Flying Hack Handicap, and the hollow fashion in which he downed the opposition was most impressive. Possibly, on the stMngth of this performance, Mr. McManemin win be exonerated from aB blame in connection with the Auckland Incident, and ff Mr. Hesiap still imagines that hie horse IB only an ordinary sort of prad he is invited to put a price on him forthwith. A LIVE ASSOCIATION. That the recently formed New Zealand Jockeys' Association (incorporated) is out 1 to get. better, and safer condition's for its momvbers the ultimatum delivered to the Takapuna Jockey Club concerning the conduct of the recent meeting held at "The Shore" clearly proves. The matters complained of are such that the Association's action will have the complete support of all Bportsmen. In the first place it is alleged that at the recent meeting the number of stray dogs present were a danger to the lives of jockeys riding in each race. This is a disgraceful condition of affairs, and one that would not be tolerated on any Taranaki course, thank goodness, and though occasionally a stray mongrel puts In an appearance,'his presence always receives prompt attention from the Clerk of the Course's whip. The second recommendation is to the effect that all jockey's fees shall be paid in cash immediately after the last race. This is provided for- - in the Bules of Eadng, and it la the secretary's duty to see that the fees are collected and paid over as provided for. If a racing club gives credit it is Its own funeral, and the. club la certainly responsible 'to the Jockeys for the prompt payment of their earnings Thirdly, the Association objects to the horses being sent to the post more than twenty minutes before the starting of the race. Bule 2, Part xxv., of the Bules or Racing distinctly states that "No horse shall be ordered to the post'more than twenty minutes before the appointed time for starting," yet in the last race at Takapuna the field hung about for thirty-three minutes before being lined up. This bustling out of horses, and delaying the closing of the machine, ail to boost up tote figures; is an Injustice to the Jockeys and their high-strung charges, and should be firmly discountenanced. Good luck to the jocksten in the firm stand they are taking.

NOTES. The Chokebore team trill be broken up this rear, H. Cutts taking Moorfowl, Royal Stag, Miss Mimic, and Heathercote to Elltrslle, and A. Cutts going to Awapunl with Onslaught, Macduff, and Winter Wind. The meeting between Moorfowl, Humbug, and Bigbt and Left in the Great Northern Foal Stakes promises to be a memorable one, and should settle a lot of arguments. Humbug will carry my coin, all going well In the meantime. The Greenwood team for Ellerslle comprises Gloaming, Karo, Rossini, and Talataff. Gloaming will probably start in the Islington Plate, Royal Stakes, and Auckland Plate. lockster Charlie Emerson was booked to leave for England, via Australia on Thursday last. Emerson has ridden winners in most of the' classic and cup events of the Dominion, and being able to go to seals at 7.7, should quickly earn recognition in the Old Dart. The Bar Tons are getting l good stirring up all round, hefty fines having been recentlybanded out to prize-winners at Auckland, Gisborne, Napier, Dunedtn, and other places. "Bill" Pollock was singled out again last week, and bis contribution to Massey*s exchequer was £215. While the Government allows the free use of tbe telegraph and telephone services for betting purposes these annual police raids savor of the ridiculous. The Sydney jockey, D. O'Connor, who -was under engagement to ride In New Zealand for* Mr. W. Stead this season, failed in his appeal to the A.J.C. committee to lift the disqualification recently passed on him at Rosebill. Being a young rider a year's spell may prove a lesion to him and to other lads Who are not afraid of taking a risk. S. Donohue again headed the winning riders I [hi England, this being bis sixth successful season as leading horseman. His most recent record Is 129 wins for 552 mounts. B. Carslake follows with an even better average—lo6 wins fa 841 mounts.

They put It in In handfuls on Vance at Woodvllle on Thursday, but once again the chestnut let her party dewn badly. On recent form she had little chance of beating Hymarty and one or two .others In tho Telegraph Handicap, but her party were on a moral—they saldl Little George Young rode three winners, Crenldes .Matty, and Some Girl, on the first day at Woodvllle, and Incidentally took the lead in the winning riders' list. Some Girl, who could not even win at Methven the other day, scored a surprise victory Over the much boomed Makeptece; and Malty, who hadn't won a race since May, 1918, went one better and returned something like a quarter of a century. When things like these happen followers of "form" ,ar,e sent back to work! One does ont hear much grumbling about hard tracks in New Zealand, but In some parts of Australia the drought Is master of everything. Conditions were so bad at TJralla last week that only two horses were nominated for the meeting, which had to be postponed—"till the weather breaks"—so to speak 1 Advice hss been received that the skeleton of Carbine was shipped by the Palma for Auckland last week. Although bred In New Zealand "Old Jack" won most of his races in Australia, and long before the old favorite crossed to the Golden Shore Jealousy ran high as to the ultimate disposal of his preservlble remains; Auckland, aa his birthplace, and Melbourne, as the scene of his greatest triumphs, both claiming them. However, the Duke of Portland, with Solomon-like wisdom, presented the skin to the Melbourne museum, and the skeleton to the Auckland museum. Everybody should be satisfied now. Hurry TTp appears to be a horse of moods, and ou his Woodvllle form (If correct) he has no chance at Awapunl. On the first day he had a bumpy run, but on Thursday no excuses could be made for his inglorious failure. He finished last.

On the evening between the races at Woodvllle, the hurdler Tuticorn was sold for £SO, but the next day the would-be buyer went "cold" on the deal. Mr. Vallance decided to run the prad again, with happy results, first money (£BS), and a "limit" dividend resulting. Wonder What' the would-be buyer thought of it? What is nomeclature coming to? Here are a few samples culled from entry lists for the holiday meetings: Top Dog, Far-from-True, Dunstan Rush, Miss Camouflage, Sticker, High Heels, Red Bob, No Bother, Dead Sweet, etc. The programme for the Wanganul Jockey Club's autumn meeting shows a big Increase all round In stakes. The Wanganul Cup Is worth £llsO, and a silver cup valued at £IOOO, the gift of Mr. W. R. Grace, goes to the winner. The Plying Handlca; is worth £6OO, the Stewards' Handicap £SOO, and the Victory Hack Welter Handicap £4OO. On the second dsy are the Wanganui Stakes, of £7OO. Farewell Handicap of £SOO, and Autumn Handicap, of £3OO. No race will be worth less than.fi,***
