MR. BARTON ON THE CUP
Mr. G. JV Barton, who was in Auckland at the weekend, en route to Australia, stated there was a great deal of dissatisfaction among owners in the South Island, over the conditions governing the New Zealand Trotting Cup. The suggested elimination of certain horses would be very unsatisfactory and might, cause much unpleasantness. Mr. Barton expressed the opinion that had the limit' been fixed at-4min 25sec with an invitation, extended to any horse on 4min 2Gsec who was considered worthy of a place in the field, it would have met all requirements.
