Comfort ... 11 10 Lady Raven 10 0 Marine ... 10 7 Kanaka 9 7 Levant ... 10 2 For his victory yesterday Comfort has gone up 17!bs, and this should prove a steadier. Marine is well in at 10.7. My selection is — Lady Raven 1 Comfort ... ■ 2 . Levant 3 Socond Hack Hunters’ Flat, miles. Te Rahui ... 11 12 Woodfiold ... 10 9 Yashmak 11 7 Sorgt.-Major 10 7 Local Option 11 5 Mokai ... 10 5 Bullfinch ... il 5 Te Rahui is asked to carry a great load, whilst Yashmak cannot be said to be well treated. Local - Option, Bullfinch, and Sorgt.-Major are the pick of the handicap, and they may finish— Local Option 1 Sergeant-Major 2 Bullfinch 3' Waikanae Handicap, 7 furlongs. Hinetapaurikill 2 Romany Girl 9 7 la 10 12 Borax ... 9 6 Mongonui ... 10 2 Nukurau ... 9 0 Soultina ... 10 0 Pinepinetekura9 0 Hiki ... 9 10 The withdrawal of Croupier has made this a very open race. Hinotapauriki has a great load to carry, but he is as game as a pobble, and will boat more than beat him. Ia ran very disappointingly yesterday, but he may come to light to-day, so also may Mongonui. Borax has a good outside show. My fancy is — Hinetapauriki ... ... 1 Mongonui 2 Ia... ... ... ... 3
