SPORTING.
['By The Ely.']
I notice that Mr Barnett of Miller's Flat, Queenstown, is offering all his horses for sale. I regret very much to state that Mr John Wrightson, of our town, has definitely decided, rot to handicap for the local* Jockey Club-on any consideration. His reasons for so doing are, perhaps, best known to himself. The following are the results of second day's racing at the New Zealand Grand National meeting : August Handicap Flat Rice—Benzion 1, Nizaparu 2, The Spinner 3 : divi., £4 15s 6d. New Zealand Grand National Hurdle Race—Defiance 1, Ilex 2, Marina 3 ; divi., £2 5s Gd. Hunt Club Cup Steeplechase—Notation 1, Wahoo 2 ; divi., £3 Is.
