A fair number of local sportsmen went I to Wanganui on Saturday for the races, i and although the weather was execrable, most came homo rejoicing, the Bulla-trained horse Spender returning the best dividend of the day, and the victory appeared to be anticipaed. Spender is likely to race at Wanganui again on Wednesday, and the . horse is very fit at present. I
