WELLINGTON T.C.
TO-MORROW'S PROGRAMME The Wellington Trotting Club will hold another of its popular meetings at Hutt Park to-morrow, and the pig number of Canterbury horses engaged gives the South Island a Wff interest in the meeting. Especial interest will centre on the meeting of the two crack four-year-olds Gamble ..and Graham Direct, and with a difference of 13 yards in two,miles a most exciting contest should be seen. Most of the horses entered claim dual engagements, and early "form may be a good guide later in the day. The programme is as follows: 12.30 pan.— NAINAI HANDICAP, of 120 sovs. For unhoppled trotters. 3min 43sec class.

Both have & ot* ted much faster than they are now asj sessed, and Lady Sonoma made a good showing at the Benefit meeting. Golden Bingen and Renegade are likely to show improvement, and the places ajay be filled by Princess Onyx, Isabel Patch, and Renegade. 1.5 p.mw—
