RACING AND TROTTING NOTES. (By "Looker-Ox.") En tries, for the Canterbury 'Jockey Club's classic events closc at noon today. Cynic, who is engaged at the Cisborno \mceting, won several races over ! u distanco of ground in Ireland. The Avcll-known cross-country horseman, A. J. McFlynn. is able to hobble about, and expects to be back in the 6addlo before long. The "Dominion" says that Mr E. S.' Luttrell, owner of Kilboy, who was in \ Wellington on Tuesday last, was entertained at.dinner at the Wellington Club, and presented with the Gold Cup won by his horse at the last Trentham meeting. Tho cup has been inscribed with full particulars of the starters in the race, and their winning performances. ' \ Tho committee appointed to decide what permits will be required in the "Wellington district next, season, will meet to discuss tho matter on Monday , next. Beltane will make one of M. Hobbs's Australian team. Mr E. S. Luttrell has purchased this gelding more .as a, galloping mate for Kilboy, than with the idea of winning any r.iccs with him. Kilkee has been purchased from Mr ."I. B. R-eid by a Christchureh sportsman. Tho gelding will bo trained by It. Longlcy for future engagement?. Tantalus was added to the list yesterday. M. Hobbs's team for ' Australia is steadily getting bigger., and it 'ooks as if he will eventually take somewhere near - a dozen horses' belonging to different owners with him. Hereford is reported to hare broken down very badly. There is a rumour abroad that the Ashburton Racing Club intend holding a one-dav meeting next month. There will, it is said, be two steeplechases and two hurdle races on the card. ■ In the event of D'escrt Gold going to Australia, Estland will accompany her._ He is engaged in the A.J.C. Derby. Mutiny, who won the Grand National Steeplechase twice—lß93 and 1896—and ran second to Levanter in ISD7, died a few days ago. Without doubfc ho was one of the best 'chasers that ever raced over the Riccarton country. He was thirty-one years olrl. The Riccarton horseman. F. Homos, who was drawn in the last ballot, failed to pass the Medical Board. Tho Fordell liszht-weight. 11. Young, is leaving for Sydney soon, and will do some ridiiiT on the "other side" for Murray Hobbs. A special committee representing the Taranaki Racing District, met at ?\V.r Plymouth on Tuesday to suggest how the racing days in the district may be curtailed by one-third: Under normal conditions there are 11 days' racing in ,tho year, and it was resolved to jccommend that, the New P.lvmonth. Stratford, and Han-era clnbs each 'ose a dav and that the Taranaki Hunt Club I meeting be not held this year. (Bt "Sf-.vrchught.") j Moneymaker, winner' of the Winter Handicap at Ashhurton on Thursday, was the best backed horse of the day and paid under even money. Mr TT. .T. Ballin has leased bis three-year-old filly bv Pctereta—Mnv Lincoln, to .T. Milne, of West Melton, who at one time trained Lord Elmo and several others. The youngster is a straight-out trotter, and shows much promise. T. G. Fox has taken jn hand a food sort of a naeor by Albert 11., the New Zealand Trotting Cup winner of 191.. J. Bryce. who presides over a strong stable at Oakhampton Lodge, was easily the most succcssful trainer during the season just closed. He led in 3o winners, the next to him being A. Fleming with- 14} wins. Mr E. L. McEeon has disposed of his four-year-old mare Bundura, by Harold Dillon—Bonny Jenny, to' Mr F. Smith, of Crhistchurch. It is quite possible, phe will in future be trained by R. Allan. GISBOKNT3 B-C.'S "WTNTEE MEBOTG. (PBESS ASSOCIATION® TZLEGBAX.) GISBORJfE, June 15.
