Acceptances for tho Winton Jockey Club's Annual Meeting closo to-day. Messrs Pyr.o and Co.'s annual blood stock bsJ<? at the Chester street yards will commence punctually at 9.30 this morning. In his notes on the Caulfiold Cup Bfacon stated in the Melbourne "Loader" that Kill? Offa was palpably lame after that race, and further on added that ho had heard from a reliable source -that Bradfield entertained grave doubt« as t-o the horso standing a Melbourne Cup preparation. He strongly advised intending backers to await developments. . Mr Bordeaux, tho veterinary surgeon wiio treated King Offa, did not agree with the suggestion thai the injured kg should bo cocained beioro the Caultield Cup. He was of tho opinion that, with the feeling in it deadened by cocaine, King Offa misht uso the leg recklessly, and bring about a breakdown. ■As a result tho favourite ran without cocaine being injected. Racing is far from dead in France, seeing that'from October 3rd to November 30th the ■ Societe dc 3 Steeplechases had arranged for 13 days' steoplcchasing and hurdle-racing at Maieons-Lafitte, the events varying iu value from £100 to £300. Tho meetings, however, wero to have continued of tho "test" order, tho general public ■thereby being debarred from being present. Notwithstanding that raco meetings in England "under Jockey Club and National Hunt rules havo been so greatly reduced during the past couplo of years those of tho ' flapping" (or "unregistered) order continued to flourish in Bomo parts of tho country. That such a position was absurd wae repeatedly pointed out by English sporting papers, but, until ' recently, without any effect. However, tho War Cabinet took hold last month, and, under the Defence of the Realm Act, prohibited the racing of horses, ponies, and galloways at any meeting not held under the authority of "tho stewards of the Jockey Club or National Hunt Committee.. MELBOURNE CUP. PRESS COMMENTS. (By Cable.—Press Association.—CopyrightO SYDNEY, November fi. The "Sydney Morning Herald" considers that Nightwatch was lucky to win, and Kennuquhair unlucky to lose, tho Cup. Going out of the straight tho first timo there were two horses behind Kermaquhair, who got on the heels of Desert Gold, and nearly camo down. Later a beaten, horse interfered with him, but he rapidly mado up ground, and followed Nightwatch into tho straight, but was ■ unable to catch him, though tho honours of the raco rested with him. The winner finished gamely under tho whip. Desert Gold, with whom a waiting raco was attempted, quite failed to materialise. Finmark might have done better but for runing wide at the turn, thereby losing several lengths, Tho raco was • won at a solid pace to tho end, the first half-milo in 50|sec, the second in S3iscc, tho third in 52sec, and tho last in 49iseo. Tho "Telegraph" says that Iho Cup went to a horse, who, when the weights were issued, was generally regarded as being quite unworthy of consideration in a winning eon- ' nexion, but Nightwatch had two things in ■ his favour, he had done very little racing, and was tho son' of Wakeful, one of the' best performers that ever. trod. turf. Then he was well ridden. There' was no such mistake as regards pace as caused the Derby to be spoiled, and though Nightwatch did not make a new record for two miles, he succeeded in clipping a quarter of a second of! the previous best Melbourne Cup time, MR LOWRY'S TEAM.

The profits, amounting to £567 5s (and also £100 invested in war bonds) had been handed .to patriotio purposes. Tlio club's explanation was accepted. . ' Mr J. Todd, St. Clair, wroto regarding th© nomination of Blue Chimes for the Gore Meeting/ explaining that the nomination ha<l been made beforo registration in error by his trainer. It was decided to accept the explanation. and that any disqualification imposed under the rules should be removed. A letter from the North Canterbury and Oxford Jockey Club stated that E. McCann had been find £10 for starting beforo his time in liw View Hill* Trot, ana tuu»& ins rider'e and driver's Uceiisq hod been cancelled for three montlia owing. t«,.hi? having been under the influence of liquor in a race. A letter on the Kamo -eubject was rcooived from Mr C. H. Gorton, one of the stewards. The Association decided to administer a caution to McCann in. respect of his starting • before time. Consideration ot tho cancelling o£ McCann's licensee yaa held over till later in tho evening, when tho Licensing Committee's action in disqualifying "him was cn- - ,• - Mr }•'. A. Keller wrote asking that the lease of Lunsdale existing between him and McCariii should be ciincelled, owing to McCann's conduct and punishment, and further asking that tho writer should be permitted' to nominate tho horso for future meetings in his own name.. The cancellation of tho registration of the lease waa agreed to. A considerable discussion took place regarding'. tho leasing of the trotter Prince Huon from G. Giant to B. White, who' had in turn Bub-leased the horse to \V. Smith. Opinion regarding the legality of any such assignment, and the proper oouree in the subsequent registration, waa urged by Mr Hopkins; 'and' ifter a. lengthy, discussion it. was .decided that tho Association's solicitors should 'be ap-_ proached for att Opinion, on 'the whole nht{r' ter. . ' In the course, of hie letter regarding Prmco Hnon, Grant easi that he could prove that the horse had not been ridden to • win at the meeting at Wcetport laet March. It was decided to wjite to Grant asking him to substantiate this statement. Following on an appeal for a subscription from the Canterbury Branch of the Navy League, it waa decided, after some discussion, that the circular should be brought under the' notice of the various clubs, with tho New Zealand Association's strongest recommendaction for its support, the Association, being in the position of trustee for the clubs, not feeling itself free to give to'any particular branch of the League. Various applications for the passing of programmes, assumed names, colours, names of horses, etc., were dealt with. Some discussion ensued regarding the programmes of the Marlborough and Nelson. Clubs, members eXpreesing. their strong disapproval of optional races. Eventually it was moved that only two optional .events be allowed on each ■ of these programmes, and that in future the Association would permit no such races at aIL In the discussion that followed it was stated that, tho president of the Marlborough Club was at present in town, and the chairman was empowered to see him on the matter, arid that the decision he should come to in regard to the Marlborough Club should bo applied to the Nelson Club. In accordance with the report of the Licensing Committee, the following, recommendations wero adopted:—That Edwaid N. Clarke, E. Crooke, W. A'. McMillan, and G. Tripp, jun., be granted riders' licenses only; that an application by G. R. Wilkinson for a similar license be held over, and thai that of J. L. T. Mortimer refused; that L. Morrison, the .holder of licenses, be severely cautioned. • The treasurer reported, a balance' of £143 Gs, and cash in hand £7 10s. The report was adopted. In response to a letter from B. Jarden asking for reconsideration of the fine imposed upon him for starting before time at the August Meeting, ' it was decided that the Boa id would take no action. Tho Board, after deliberation in committee, disqualified J. J. Cotter, of Winchester, for life for corrupt practices, while in connexion with the same matter J. F. Muir was disqualified for twelve months. In another case J. Murdoch, of Dunedin, the registered owner of the tnaro Ernestina, was disqualified for two years for corrupt practices, and the transfer of ihe mare from Murdoch to' D. J&ogera was refused. SALE OF THE " COLDSTREAM LODGE" TROTTING STOCK, Tatter sail's yesterday morning presented a scene of animation. Every bench was filled with buyers and visitors from all part 3 of New Zealand, the event being the submitting to public auction of tbe annual draft of Mrs Mabel Duncan's highly-bred trotting stock. In this departure she may be regarded as the pioneer. Mr Leicester Matson opened the ball by making fitting reference to the various lots to be offered, and to tne advantages of their acquisition. The opportunity was unique for gamblers, sports, breeders,. and lovers .of *borß6s to enlarge their ideals and incomes by becoming: owners of one or other- of the various The possibilities " of tho trotting sport were assured; the

The varioua lots to be wicted on behalf of Mis Duncan prT ~ i sented great possibilities, with a o *. ' doublv-assured opportunities when the luuxro of this sport was reviewed.
