Christchurch, Feb. 2. It is fully expected that there will be very full acceptances for all handicaps at the Canterbury Jockey Club's meeting on Saturday, and the contests promise to be of a most interesting character. Goldleaf will be started for the Middle Park Plate, but his prospect of success against Gold Medallist and Multiform seems very remote. Marquis ot Zetland will be reserved for the Midsummer Handicap, for which ho is as good a favorite as anything. Work at Riccarton yesterday morning was for the most part coulined to steady pacing, several coming home fast over the last few furlongs. WOODYILLE RACES.
