THE WANGANUI RACES

Silver Brier Wins COURT ARMA’S SUCCESS IN HURDLES (United Press Association.) Wanganui, September 10. The Wanganui Jockey Club’s spring meeting opened to-day in showery weather, but eventually the weather cleared and there was bright sunshine. The attendance was good. The going was a trifle holding. An inquiry was held after the Putiki Hack Handicap into interference with Cloudy Bay near the six furlong post and the rider of Orac (J. Winder) was suspended for one month, for careless riding, just after the start and also during the running of the race. T. Tito, the rider of War Ace in the Okehu Hurdles Handicap broke his collarbone when his mount fell at the last fence. W. Taylor, the rider of Midacre in the hurdles, was cautioned for coming across too soon at the first fence. The totalisator handled £9273 10/-, against £7043 10/-, an increase of £2230.
