WAIKATO R.C.
"The Press” Special Service AUCKLAND, May 24. The weather has been fine to-day and the course at Te Rapa has dried a sood deal, so that the going for the second day of the Waikato Racing Club's winter meeting to-morrow may be better than appeared likely early in the week. Peter has been withdrawn from the Farewell Hack Handicap and therefore it will not be necessary to run the race in divisions. It is practically certain that the Gordonten Handicap will be divided. Horses likely to be in demand include: 11 am.—Te Rapa High-weight Handicap: Bright Fox, Stock Exchange, Dumbo. 11.45 a.m.—Matangi Hack Hurdles: Betterman, Patu Ra. Khadim. 12.35 pm.—Gordonton Handicap: Flying Jim, Broiealice, Te Watrine. 1.25 pm.—Waikato Hurdles: Abdicate, Ballyneety, Bramble Song. 2.15 pm.—Hamilton Handicap: Balmacara. Master Robin. Leigh Hark. 3 p.m.—Frankton Steeplechase: Political Boy. Our Nation, Ngamotu. 3.50 pm.—Maeroa Handicap: Black Beret, Tiger Tan, Park Royal. 4.40 pm.—Farewell Hack Handicap: Bedivere, Cracroft, Winning Ticket.
