(BY MORNING DEW")

Mistake Bay, the Dunbar Derby candidates, is favoured for the Trial Plate this afternoon. For the. Madins, Victoria Hall is fancled, even if Herod accepts" for this event, which is by no means certain at the moment, For the remaining griffins" "event, the Hopeful Stakes, a win is predicted for Mr. Ho Kom Tong's Paclic Hall.

Double Chance is considered an outstanding candidate for the Valley Stakes The two ponies picked for the first and second sections of the Wong Nei Chong Stakes are Gold Picker and Matinee ››Idol.

With all the favourites drawn into the first section of the Sydney Maidens, this race promises to provide a Mg thril Derby Day is selected to win. In the second section, Shooting Star will be matched against The Bean Goose and Vixen Tor. The Bean Goose should' win.

The Arst saddling bell will be rung at 11a.m. and the first race will be at 11.30. Admission to the publie enelo is $2 per day.

GOLD PICKER AND MATINEE IDOL

though and if Clear View faces the starter I think he will not be far away at the finish. It is so difficult to know just where the are going Gut. If Mr. Marshall takes out Trowbridge in this event, the pony has a sport- ing chance. .Gold Coin, High Höcour and Rosseau are other likely starters,

It is always difficult to try and pick the winner in the Wong Nei Chong Stakes and nearly always those who succeed get a very big return on the Tote. Gold Pick-griffins er, if we are to go by his per- formances on the sand track, is an excellent candidate in the first section and should not be far away. I like Lincluden and Pavane for places. anyone looking for a good outsider can do worse than back Man of War, who is very fast at the start. In a short race, this is an important factor.

Better Race The second section should pro- vide more interest from the pun- ter's point of view as Matinee Idol and Tin Ho are both good sprinters who will be prominent in the early stages. The half mile is just about the maximum distance for both and so we should -see-a-good-race. The Deemster is one of those likely to run into s place.

The Maidens -

I expect the field to be not more than a dozen in The Maiden Stakes. Herod went for a x fur- longs gallop yesterday morning and may not start to-day, but even if he does, he is not a cer- tainty for the Maidens, where I prefer the chances of Mr. Ho Kom Tong's Victoria. Hall, who has been steadily improving in his work during the past month and should be able to earn his keep at the meeting. Herod is sure of a place
