CAGAYAN'S GREAT GALLOP OVER DERBY DISTANCE..

OVERSHADOWS ALL PERFORMANCES ON SATURDAY: STRONG CLAIM FOR DERBY · HONOURS.

ALL-ROUND BRISK WORK BY PROMINENT CANDIDATES.

[BY MORNING DEW."]

All the gallops at Hoppy Valley on Saturday were overshadowed by the trial of Cagayan over the full Derby distance. The pony lapped up the distance in a most convincing manner and took only 3 minutes and 17 seconds to cover the journey, which was done on the sand track. In spite of the good time, it is safe to say that the pony was not fully extended,

Cagayan will undoubtedly bo mado hot favourite for the Derby after Saturday's exhibi- tion. He has the cut of a stayer and has speed and it will tako very good. pony on top form to pecbunt for him on March 3. Mr. F. M. L. Soares rode him on Saturday and will be riding him at the Annual Meeting and his chance of adding another Derby victory to his achievement on the local course, com extremely good.

Other Derby ponies which did fast work include Valorous which also went over the full dia- tance. This pony's time for the first mile was actually better than Cagayan's but it took him 1 minute and 12 seconds to run over the last half mile which is certainly not the performance of a would-be Derby winner.

.

Holly Leaf and Tiana did the distance in nine seconds more than Cagnyan. Both are good nerformers and may develop into formidable rivals for Cagayan by the time the Annual Reco Meeting becomes due. Sam Houston's time for the mile, and a quarter, given below is also worth remembering.

In connection with Australian ponies renders will no doubt be sorry to hear that Fritz is at the moment somewhat lame in one of his fore logs. The pony is one of the best in his class and every supporter of the sport will hope that Mr. Stanton, his owner, will not be disap- pointed when the races become due.
