THE CASTALIA CASE
ARBITRATORS’ DECISION. Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, August' 12. The New Zealand Racing Conference arbitrators appointed by consent of the parties in the dispute as to the payment of 25 sovs to the breeder of the winner, of the Avondale Stakes in 1913 have decided “that the word ‘breeder’ is in the case of the breeder of a foal clearly confined for all stud book and racing purposes to tbo owner of the data at the time when such foal was dropped. Under the circumstances the arbitrators further decide that there was no power inherent in the stewards or committee of the club to vary the plain meaning of the word ‘breeder’ as so used, and therefore direct that the sum allocated to the breeder of Castalia be paid to Mr F. Hall who it is admitted purchased her dam priqr to the day on which Castalia was foiled. (Signed) Geo. Clifford, C. C. Dalgety, H. Friedlander, arbitrators.’’
