The Wellington Racing Club's summer meeting will be concluded at Trentharn to-day the principal events being the Summer and City Handicaps. Don Hannibal is reported to be galloping well on the other side of the Tasnian and it is hoped that the Xew Zeai.inler will strike form about Xewmarket. time. The Takapuna summer meeting opens on Saturday, when the Cup comes up for decision. Sir Prize has declined the engagement. Pikopo is going well again and will be facing the fences' at Wanganui next month. Strathmoira was very warm on the first day at Foxton, but was bady left and had no chance. Xext day he got out and—stopped out! It has been said of a horse down South that, after winning three times when he wasn't wanted to. the flier missed badly the first time his connections put in the shekels. This' is a true bill. Old Mahutonga, wlio won the Auckland Cup in 1004, was brought back to Xew Zealand last week, being landed at Auckland. Adria. who generally causes heaps of profanity at the barrier, trot a flier in tin- Civi at Foxton and spoil"d the race, winning 'bv half-a-dozen tcngfhs nml giving jockey Wallace Young his first winning ride.
