| Colej winner of tho Washdyke , irofc Handicap at Timaru on Satui'day, rf nlaro by King Colo (2min J o-oth sec) from the imported mare iSovice, dam of Native King and Nelson Derby. Queen Colo is owned by B. Grice, and is trained by his brother, J. Grice. ' Tho . annual meeting of members of the AsJhburton Trotting Club will be held on Thursday next. Several vacani 1 1 ® a _ on the committee require to be tiled, and as tho question of starting by yards- or seconds for the future will be brought before the meeting, an interesting debate can bo looked forward to. , A recent addition to J. Henderson's staWo at Oamaru is a four-year-old • ESS® r by Sfelson Bin gen from Cremona wilkeSj dam of Cello Sydney Wilkes and Violino M. Wilkes. ~ Tipperary to be retired froin track. Her first mate will probably be one of the imported horses. Polydnmou or Absurd. Alan Brcck was insured for £3OOO (at the rate of 10 per cent., making a total premium of £300) against the risk of •his not running in tho English Derby. ■Alan Breclv raif fourth in the race, which was won by Humorist. S. Reid, v who rode Mountain God tovictory in the Grand National Steeplechase on Saturday, had a run of ill-lm-k on Monday •ut .Moonee ■ Valley (says the Melbourne "Leafier" of July'l6th). His mount, Calver, who was a wellbacked second favourite, fell heavily at the second obstacle, and Reid sustained a fractured collarbone, in addition to a shaking. In view' of the near approach of the V.A.r.O. Australian Steeplechase Meeting the accident is unfortunate for Reid, who has not long since recovered from a broken collar'bbne'received at ihe'Warmambool Steeplechase Meeting. The imported horso Quontock, now at the stud "in New South Wsrfes, was represented by a two-year-old winner at Epsoni on Derby Day., This ' was Western Hill, owned by Lord Glnivly, who beat twelve others in the Caterham Stakes, five furlongs. Quantock's stock, in the Old Country have put up a good "Winning record in two-year-old races. Mr George Hume, who saw the i>or&> when,he was in Sydney, was grmtlv impressed with him, and is sending' Martian Princess across to him (.snys the Wellington writer "Sir Lancelot''). The Messrs Alison have also sent ono of theiri New Sou.tli Wales-bred rhares on a similar, mission'. SOUTH' CANTERBURY HUNT CLUB'S , \ STEEPLECHASE MEETING. Tbo day was dry but cold for the annual race meeting of tho South Canterbury Hunt, held at.Timaru,on Saturday. Notwithstanding- the bitter sou'-weator that was Mowing tho attendance was very large. The racing was interesting, and betting Was bris-k, the machine' haljdiing £15)448, aa against £9965 for the last meeting. Falls were , few, and. none of the riders was seriously hurt, Vf. Weir being tho only one to get marked, his face: being badly bruised when Bellrock fell with him in the Hunters' Steeplechase. Th© | Hunt officials ©onduoted the business of tho daj> and kept everything going With a splendid swing. There were no happenings during the afternoon to mar the pleasure of tho day. The Judicial Committee were called together after the Hunters' Plat© Handioap, when the rider? of Innisfallen and Beady, who had dead-heated, -complained against «vch other, but the committee, did not consider that anything had happened grave enough to alter tho judge's decision.
