AUCKLAND RACES—CONCLUDING DAY.

(BY TELKGBAyfI —PRESS ASSOCIATION.) AUCKLAND, Jan. 2. The Auckland Racing Club's summer meeting was concluded to-day in fine weather. There was a large attendance and good racing, the course being in good order. B. Rosen, the rider of Broadwood in the Goodwood Handicap, was suspended for three months for interfering. An enquiry was held into Pilliewinkie's running in the Grandstand Handicap compared with its performance in the Summer Cup. It was explained by the horse's connections that Pilliewinkie was no good on wet going, and it was decided to take no actios. The totalisator handled £89,507, an increase of £4227 10s on the fourth day last year. Results:
