Main, the club’s racecourse manager, will leave early next month on a short visit to Australia. They will visit the racecourses of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, the purpose of the trip' being to study the methods adopted in the organisation and control of race meetings. A subject of special interest will be a report on the types of starting stalls in use in Australia. G. S. Barr will keep Edward in work and he will make a trip to Wingatui next, month, for the Otago Hunt meeting, v/here the programme includes two steeplechases. Night Prince has joined A. B. Stove’s team. He is making a good recovery from an injury to one of his eyes and he will be given a good spell before being prepared for another trial in steeplechases next winter. Appeasement, in the team of M. J. Wadley, has finished his racing for this winter and has been sent home for a spell. His recent steeplechase form was not encouraging.
