The seoreia.y of the Amberley Steeplechase Club reported that in the Widpara Trot a protest had been oulered by J. Milne, the r.der of Lexter, against J. Hanna, the driver oi Wild Wind, who finished second, on the ground of interference. Tho stewards, acting on their own mot.on, had inquired into the running of Wild Wind, and had disqualified her for tho race, on riie ground of deliberate pulling. They further decided to report the matter to the Trotting Association, to take further action if it was thought necessary. The president recommended that the club should be informed that it should meet and fix tho term of disqualification, and 1 then report the result to the Association for endorsement. This suggestion was agreed to, tho secretary to point out to the club tha rules bearing on the case. An application from It. Post, for the removal of his disqualification, supported by a petition from, Tasmania, was declined. The disqualification of the horse Apology, for competing in an unregistered trot at the Eketahuna Show, was removed.
