HAWERA TROTTING CLUB.

PLUTO WINS THE BIG RACE. j STEWARDS' HANDICAP TO TIT ZOLOCK. (By Telegraph.— Press Association.) NEW PLYMOUTH, Monday. The Hawera Trotting Club's anuual meet-; ing was concluded to-day in hue weather. Grey Logan was the only withdrawal; from the Trial field, which numbered four-1 teen. Neetson attracted first support, while Vallamont was eleventh on the list, withj about £320 less than the favourite. Araroaj was left at the start and Jasper and Lou Pronto made indifferent clearances. As thel result of an early mixup Abrudbanya. Marion Junior and Ngahuia were affected. The latter lost his driver (W. Head) end con-1 tinued without a pilot. Passing the stand j the first time Neerson had come into second j place, behind Vallamont, with uur Nancy third and Enawah heading the remainder. Reaching the bend the favourite was closing 011 the leader, but Vallamont turned with a length and a-half to the good and finished well to beat Neerson by two lengths, with Araroa about eight lengths away third, followed by Our Nancy, Enawah, the driverless Ngahuia, and Hostess.

A Win For the Bracket. ; Ten went out for the Ohawe Handicap. I The Bright Light-Real Todd bracket was j the public choice, with about ilw moiej than Ben Biugen, which was given £211' more than Roez. Roez was first to strike j a gait and led Bon Tapui aud Caterpillar j (both galloping), followed by Real Todd, 1 Bright Light and Lobster. Lady Ena refused to settle down until her chance of a! favourable position had been lost. Passing j the stand, Caterpillar was piloting Brisht : Light, Bon Tapui, Real Todd and May ! Audubon well ahead of Roez and Lobster. | 8011 Tapui broke going out of the straight j and lost his position. Entering the bacs. | Bright Light took command and led at the four-furlong peg from Real Todd. Caterpillar and May Audubon together, clear of Bon Tapui. Roez, Peter Mac Donald and : Lobster. The same four leaders were prao- ' tically on terms at the home turn, with' Bright Light on the inside and May Audubou on the outer Hank. The bracketed pair improved and half-way along the straight it seemed that Bright Light would be first ' home, with Real Todd second, but the latter broke up and also stopped May Audubou. with the result that Bright Light went on to win by two lengths from Caterpillar,! with May Audubon third, the same distance 1 back. Roez was a poor fourth. A Big Field. i Twenty-two acceptors all fulfilled their' Y\ aimate Plains engagements. 11 Hay, was public choice, with jciiin more than 1 Ricardo.
