NGINGONGINGO CASE.
APPLICATION TO BOARD. NO POWER TO REMOV® DISQUALIFICATION. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, tliie day. At a meeting of the New Zealand Trotting Board, Miss E. Hinds, owner of Ngingongingo, applied' for the removal o* the disqualification of her horse so that he could be nominated for events at the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club s spring meeting. It was explained that the horse was not in his present owners nomination when the disqualification was imposed. • Members pointed out the fact that Miss Hinds knew wnen slia purchased the horse the disability he was under, and to remove the disqualification imposed would be setting a very dangerous precedent. It was decided that the association had no power to remove the disqualification, as it was governed by Rule 374, which provides <that if a horse be disqualified by a club for six months, or more, it shall not be entered, nominated or started in_ any race during the term of disqualification.
