The Dunedin Jockey Club commenced its annual winter meeting at Wingatw yes-l-er-day, and although the day was fine there was 9 cold sou'-wLGter blowing, which made the shelter of the grand stand very acceptable. Those who were undeterred by the ■wintry aspect of the day and patronised the club's gathering were rewarded by witnessing come of th» finest snort that has ever taken place on the course. Prominent among«t those on the lawn was Sir .1. G. Ward, i who was an interested spectator during portion of the afternoon. Tho Hon. George M'Lean, the club's "president, was, as usual, a very noticeable figure on the stewards' stand, and amongst other prominent officials of the club present -were noticed Messrs J. Mills, A. E. 8.

Friedlandcr, and J. Tennant were also amongst those who were in the paddock. The going was very holding, and com© of the horses did not act up to their best form, owing to the sticky nature of the ground. Mr H. Piper despatched his fields in his usual succo&sful manner, and the other officials of tho club worked l<ard to make the day's sport euccoseful. Speculation over the first throe racM wa« not very brisk, but afterwards punters opened out and tho betting on the balance of the card proved a decided improvement.
