TE MONOWAI
A perusal of the sprint field for the first day of the Waikato Winter meeting discloses among the light-weight division that decidedly useful hack performer, Te Monowal, who In recent engagements has been handling substantial weights—and winning too. At his last appearance he won over seven furlongs at Avondale with 0.7, conceding the Improving Vaalso, whom he beat narrowly, over two stone. On the first day of the meeting, with 9.1, he was defeated In a tight finish by Prlval (7.8) and It is interesting to note that the time for the hack sprint was better than that of the open sprinters later In the day. Te Monowal should appreciate his light poundage and prove one of the hardest to dispose of.
