TALK OF THE TURF

GREAT NORTHERNS SIX DOWN IN HURDLES PRINCE OF ORANGE WINS CORNWALL TO ONEWHETU TWO NEW RACE RECORDS (Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, last night. The Auckland Racing Olu'b's Great Northern meeting opened yesterday in glorious weather, flic track was in splendid order and there was a good attendance. The totalisator handled £44,25.1, against £48,253 10s last year. when there were only seven races on tlio programme. This year's decrease is qualified Ivy the fact that the first day of the meeting last year was on the late King's George's Birthday, which was a full holiday. To-day's Oreat Northern Hurdle race was sensational. Six horses fell and Scotch Nation broke its leg in front, of the stands when in a leading position, having to be immediately destroyed on the course. As a result of the falls the riders Trillo (Benighted), Beale (Jolly Beggar), Carroll (Contact); and McGregor (Master Musk)., were injured, although not seriously. The race' was won easily -by Prince of Orange in the record time of 4.41. The dividend was nearly a score.

Following on an inquiry into the running of Pnkeko in the first division of the .Tervois Handicap, it was decided that the horse was nol run on its merits and Pukeko and its .ider, A. Jenkins, and Ihe ownertrainer, B. Burgess, were disqualified or six months tinder rule 282.
