Scenes at Trentham on the opening day of the Wellington Racing Club’s spring meeting, which concluded yesterday, when sensationally fast times were registered in the majority of the events. Above may be seen the horses leaving the saddling paddock for the big race, the Wellington Handicap, won by a big outsider in Shy, with Cuddle in second place. On the right, Kinnoull (No. 2), a strong favourite, beating Catalogue (No. 1), Myriam and Big Dook in the Wainui Handicap, and the finish of the Wellesley Stakes, with Gay Son (next rails) defeating Surmount, followed by Minga, Amigo, Peerless and Russian Ballet.
