Ohinemyri Flying Handicap.

Some smart sprinters appear in the Flying Handicap, to be decided at Paeroa on Saturday, and it bears an open aspect. The top-weights Llangollen and Proud Fox are very good, and they can be expected to make their presence felt, even though they are in a position where success is not easy. It may be a little early for Corato and Pirate King, who have not raced just lately, and the same may apply to Lornacre and Silver Quex. Te Takina is a very smart beginner, who displayed marked improvement toward the end of last season, and this is the sort of race she might win. Bronze Moth has raced well on the course, but Orate has been out of form and is too uncertain to be entrusted with much confidence.

The speedy Gaymiss should be all the better for her race at Avondale, where she finished a close fourth after making the pace in the Flying Handicap, and she is likely to return to the winning list at any time now. She should be assisted by her early brilliance, and may take a great deal of beating. . Valimeen showed good form in finishing third on the second day at Avondale, and slight improvement upon that effort should make her dangerous. Maxam, who won the event last year, has shaped well in her latest races, and she may again be in the picture. Olympus failed at Avondale, but he is speedy and should not be without prospects. Dinky Di was a smart two-year-old and has been working nicely.

Sure Pay is another who displayed speed as a two-year-old last season, and he may be a possibility. Paxeno has not raced lately, and Sir Robin has also been off the scene. It is on the cards that Sir Robin may be much improved this season. Miss Te Koura does not appeal in the class, even though she is a fast beginner, and Town Section will also require to show improvement to defeat this company. It is probable that there may be a fairly wide range of fancies, and some who may be in demand are Gaymiss, Valimeen. Te Takina and Llangollen.
