THE RACING CARNIVAL.

FINAL DAY'S OUTLOOK. Prevailing weather conditions do not look at all reassuring for the conclusion, of the Grand National meeting. Still, as the town is full of visiting sportsmen, it is quite sure that there will be no lack of patronage, irrespective of the weather. Most of the best horses that have sported silk at the meeting are again down to compete, and, as their form has been well exposed, good racing can be looked for. There will be the usual tram and train facilities to and from the course. The day's card is as follows: 11 a.m. HUNTERS' PLATE, of 110 sovs. One mill anil a-half (on the flat). st. 11). st. lb.
