RACES AT MATAMATA

(By “ The Squire.”)

ROTORUA RACING CLUB ACCEPTORS FOR SATURDAY Owing- to the numerous acceptors, the Mokoia Hack Handicap, one of the events to be decided at the Rotoi’ua Racing Club’s meeting at Matamata to-morrow, has been converted Unto two races, while provision has been made to run the Arawa Park Stakes and the Geyser Hack Handicap in divisions. However, as only two scratcliings are necessary to bring the Geyser field to the safety margin, there is evei-y likelihood that this event will be run as one event.
