MANAWATU TROTTING CLUB LABOUR DAY MEETING Owners and trainers aro reminded that nominations for the Labour Day meeting to bo held by tho Manawatu Trotting Club, close with tho secretary, Mr. A. 11. Manson, Box 412, Palmerston North, on Monday, October 12, at S p.m., the closing date having been changed from October 9 to meet tho convenience of owners and trainers. The Manawatu. meeting will be followed five days after by tho Wellington Trotting Club’s New Zealand Cup trial meeting which will probably bo an inducement for owners from a distance assisting at both meetings. The club provides free stabling and yards for competing horses on the Manawatu A. and P. Association showgrounds, and all trains will be met by tho club's carrier, all gear being carted from the rail to the showgrounds freo of charge. The Manawatu Club is fortunate that it has been presented with a silver tea and coffee service valued at £25, to go to the owner of the winner of the next Trotting Cup, to be run in April next. At the meeting of the committee of the club held recently £ls was donated to tho Manawatu A. and P. Association to supplement the prize money for the trotting events at the next Spring show. The club’s training track is now in first-class order.. After the Labour Day meeting is over it is intended to extend the size of the track in order to make two of tho present bends more easy.
