RACING NOTES.

[BY RAPIER.]

חול

The conditions for the Extra Race Meeting this afternoon are ideal' and there will be some very close and keen racing, especially in the St. Leger.

The following are my selections;— Race 1.-Fire furlonga:

1. Barley Grass.

2. Arabian Parrot.

3 Rechabite,

Race B-One 'mile:

1 The Sandpiper.

2. The Regent.

3. The Geerer,

I have selected the Sandpiper as the winner, because at the last meeting he won the "B" class furlongs race carry. ing 160 lbs. in 1.37.1-5, and he is now only called upon to carry 147 lbs. Regent won the "A" Class 6 furlongs race at the last meeting in 1.37.9-3, carrying 333 Ibs" and he is now carrying 184 lbs. This is, of course, a mile race and the extra. two furlongs may make a difference.

Buce s.-The Pulu Scurry:

This should prove easily the most in- teresting Polo Scurry seen on the course for some years. The probable starters are Mowgli, Reynolds, Hailsham, Urgent, Black Mouse, District Call, Bacehorse, James Figg, Cocquistador, Inkpot, Ben- jamin, Shot III. Mowgli, Beynolds and Hailsham will be the favourites, but, as outside bets, I commend District Cell and Conquistador.

Race 4-Aggregate Stakes: One mile:

1. Saligia

2.

Total Abstinence,

3 September. (If this pony does not go out Bayfield will probably start to pick up.place mouer. I do not anti- cipate any betting on this race).

Rage 5-This should be a good race..

Sunburst Rosë--

1.

The Gomeril

3. Beldordey Star.

If Loch Rannoch goes out he should get

a place, but I understand he is starting later.

Race 6 Here is the best guce of the day:

1. The Goblin.

2. Lady Luck

3. Brigade Call.

All these ponies are going well, and the mare has an advantage of 10 lbs: She does not, however, arem to me strong enough to do herself justice over this distance.

-Race 7.-1} miles:

The Gnome,

Dobbia.

3.

Loch Rannoch.

The H. K.F.C. will be "at home" to the Chisa Athletic to-day. The Chinese team has made more appearances on the Club ground this season than has the H.K.F.C., so they also should be quite at home. The game should be productive of good struggle between the Athletic's nippy forwards and the Club's very sound half-back line-J. Stewart, Waf son and McBride. Both teams secured a win last week; but, the Athletic will start favourites in this match,

The second race, at 2.30, is for Navy whalers, cutters, gigs and galleys: The course will be: "A" Tamar line, Kos. Joon Hock (.), Cust Rock Buoy (P.), Club Line W. to E., five miles.

With tarif walls would come suspicion which would become the greatest danger to peace.

On the contrary, a world of rival, nations living by their wits, levelled against each other, would inevitably lead ultimately to a clash of arms.
