LIMIT OF FOUR
Ownership Of Horses The executive of the New Zealand Trotting Conference will sponsor a remit limiting to four the number of persons which can be party to the ownership of a horse. This was decided at a meeting of the executive in Christchurch on Friday. A similar rule is enforced by the New Zealand Racing Conference. Such a remit, if passed by the next annual meeting of the conference in July, 1965. could affect an organisation called the Workingmen’s Horse Owners’ Club, which is being formed in Wellington. The club, which is similar to the Punters’ Club in Australia, hopes to secure a membership of 500, which will race pacers and trotters, starting with three horses and building up to a team of from 10 to 20 horses. The club had written to- the conference regarding the ownership of horses, and this matter had been placed in the hands of legal advisers, said the secretary of the conference (Mr J. Rowley) yesterday.
