' size and over that distance.” the top Auckland jockey, G F. Hughes, told “The Press” last week. Hughes would like to see the distance of an apprentices’ race extended to at least nine furlongs or the seven-furlong race divided , so that there would be no i more than 13 or 14 runners ' in each division. ' Hughes said that in a field ’ of 26 there was nothing for the apprentices but “to kick i up and hope for the best—- - devil take the hindmost.” I This, he said, would undo i all the good work being done by the Racing Conference's i riding master, Mr W. R. Hooton, who is now instructing in Southland after con- . ducting classes at Riccarton : during cup week.
