ROYAL CHARTER WINS TAKAPUNA CUP

(P.A.) , Auckland, Jan. 29. The first day of the Auckland Racing Club’s midsummer meeting was held at Ellerslie today in fine weather. The going was firm. The totalisator handled £163,954 10s, compared with £137,748 10s on the corresponding day last year, an increase of £26,206. C. McColl, rider of Harris Tweed in the Orewa Hurdles, was suspended for one month for causing interference to Bold Tide. An inquiry was held into the falling of Sly Robin In the Ferry Handicap. It was found that the fall was caused through Sly Robin getting on the heels of Alnajo, the occurrence being accidental. As a result of injuries received when they fell during the running ot the Wynyard Handicap, Norman Knight and Foxrose were destroyed. Airlie, who was pulled up during the running of the Orewa Hurdles, collapsed some time after the race and died. Results are: — WAIATARUA HANDICAP (Of £750; 7 furlongs.)
