LATE SPORTING.

DUNEDIN MEETING AGAIN POSTPONED. COURSE WILL BE SOFT FOR TO-MORROWS RACES (Special to the ‘'Star.”) DUNEDIN, October 10. The bad luck of the Dunedin Jockey Club regarding the weather continues Last night’s forecast was not good, but the weather was fairly fine until about six o’clock this morning, when rain set in again, continuing for several hours. As a result, the officials of the club deemed it necessary to order a further postponement, and the meeting is now set down for Saturday and Monday. The outlook at noon was quite bright, the rain having eased off to occasional light showers. Even under the best conditions, however, the course will be very soft to-morrow. The following is the card for tomorrow : 12.20 p.m. SPRING HURDLES HANDICAP, of 165 sovs. One mile and three-quarters.
