The committee of the Auckland Racing Cinb,at their usual monthly meeting on Friday, removed the disqualification from one pony and from four jockeys. What dobs this portend ? Is- pony racing to be-again taken under their protecting wing ot not ? ;We do not object to pony racing when properly fostered and tonducted, and though we should be very sorry 1 to see the Auckland Racing Club make: the liliputians a feature of theiru programme in any way, we cannot see- why, : if they are not recognising..pony racing, they should remove certain disqualifications^rom ponies and jockeys. Let them either take one side or the other; let them either boldly recognise k pony r racing or cast it out of their Way altogether rather than assume the Juke warm position they now appear to< be taking up. r -:>t. >
