NEWS AND NOTES. The totaUsator investments at the South Canterbury Jockey Club’s meeting yesterday were a record for the course, while the sum handled in tho Flying Handicap, £4112, was also the hugest ever associated with races at Yvnshdyke.

He wa3 shut out at the start, and after that he could never be induced to giillop. He dropped further back as tho journey proceeded, and finished about a furlong behind tho field. Warform was responsible for a very bad performance in the Hurdles, run at the South Canterbury meeting yesterday. Ho commenced to tail on early, and after a bad exhibition of jumping ho was not far into tho straight when tho other horses were finishing. Messrs Clarkson and Pearson had a successful experience at the South Canterbury meeting yesterday- They started three horses, winning twico and being second with their other TepresentaSome Kid finished fast in the concluding event at the South Canterbury meeting yesterday, after getting along v-erv slowly. .

Nicoll, who is exacted to arrive from a v-lsit to England early in January.
