Speaking at the annual -eting of the Wellington Trotting Club this evening, the president (Mr. R. A, Armstrong) drew attention to the large contribution to the upkeep of the sport made by owners of trotting horses during the last season. In round figures there were [some 1400 different horses competing. ;At a conservative estimate this represented a maintenance cost to owners for I the season of some £360,000. This ' estimate made no allowance for the capital value of the animals and left out entirely a large number of horses not actually competing that were either in training or being otherwise maintained. The net amount returned to owners in stakes was in round figures £173,000, including several benefit meetings. It would be seen that the owners as a whole in the upkeep of those horses actually competing had contributed over twice the amount that was available as a return by way of stakes.

(By '‘Moturoa.’’) The committee of the Taranaki Hunt Club has decided not to raise the gate charges for its meeting on Saturday week in spite of tho increased amusement tax. Toxeuma The Best.

Toxeuma, the hero of the Winter Cup, was got by Arrowsmith, from the Merry Moment mare Te Aupaki. The latter’s dam, Timua, was by BirkcnheadHinewhata, by Vasco de Gama-Freder-ico, by Hero-Minamina, by Ravensworth. Te Aupaki was bred by Mr. G. C. Ormond in 1912, and in 1922 dropped a colt to icing Mark. A full sister, Huarau, was not of much account, and it was not until she gave the Turf Toxeuma in 1925 that she came into the limelight. In 1927 she produced a filly, Pakitere, to Arausio, and since then the Sunstar horse has been her consort. Arausio has not' been an outstanding success eo far, but his stock show promise of improving with age. Last season they won eight .races; were 20 times placed; and won in stakes f 1,035.
