HUNT CLUB TROTTING
DELETION FROM PROGRAMMES. PROTEST TO RACING CONFERENCE. By Telegraph—Press Association. Timaru, July 19. The committee of the South Canterbury Hunt Club to-day decided to protest against the action of the Racing Conference in deciding that after January 1, 1936, no hunt club should include a trotting event at a totalisator meeting. It is felt that the South Canterbury Hunt Club is obliged to consider the interests of the farmers over whose country it has hunted and stage a trotting race, especially as jumping and hunters’ events are so well catered for on the programme. It is considered that the hunt clubs concerned should have been consulted before the resolution was passed, and it has been decided to ask the Christchurch, Waimate, Otago and Birchwood Hunt Clubs to be associated with the protest.
