Royal Songster was omitted from the nominations for the Clyde Higliweiglit Handicap on the first day of the AYairoa meeting.

According to the “Sydney Morning Herald,” Silver Scorn will arrive in Sydney in the next fortnight, and will go to the stables of her new owner. Tentatively, the programme is to let her down until the approach of the autumn fixtures, hut it is improbable that she v ill b G turned out iu the paddocks.

There were seven events oil the programme for each day of the Foxton meeting," as it' was originally framed, and the stake money allotted amounted to £835. Nominations received for the opening day totalled 69, giving ail average of just under ten a race, and ,as some of. those were engaged in more than one event it 'was obvious at an• early date that the acceptances• wiuld be “thin, The . intervention of the Christmas 4nd "New Year holiday • racing campaign. with the consequent crop of casualties' among- th.e horses engaged, made .the; outlook s.till. more, gloomy.
