The Dunedin delegate to the Racing Conference —the Hon. G. McLean—will only have one subject to introduce. His motion will be in the direction of amplifying the machinery of the rules in regard to disputes on points of racing by invoking the aid of the English rules should any case arise which is not provided for by the colonial code. Commenting upon Mr McLean’s motion, “ Mazeppa ” writes :—“ There used to be such a provision in the D.J.C.’s own rules, compiled by 'Mr Sydney James so far back as 1875, and the notion now is to transport the then existing provision bodily into the new book. I should imagine that no opposition will be made to such a proposal. Our racing legislators will hardly consider it a reflection on their dignity to take guidance from Newmarket when no other direction can be discovered, and though their friends in the big talking shop at Wellington might probably scout the idea of giving a thought to a provision dating from 20 years ago, the delegates may possibly see their way to give the old principle some consideration.”
