TROTTING.
DUNEDIN AMATEUR TROTTING CLUB. By Telegraph.—Press Association. . Dunedin, December 1. An exceedingly tame afternoon’s sport was provided at St. Clair Park this afternoon by the Dunedin Amateur Trotting Club. There were only a few hundred spectators, though the weather was beautiful. Susan, who won the Trot at Forbury yesterday, was simply thrown into the three principal events. She distanced all her opponents in the St. Clair and Spring Handicaps and also scored an easy win in the Electric Trot, in which she was barred on the totalisator. Speculation was very mild, only £628 being put through the machine. The following are the results : Maiden Handicap Trot, of 25 sovs. Two miles.—Nell, lOsec, 1„• Dairymaid, 4sec, 2.
