POVERTY BAY TURF CLUB’S ANNUAL MEETING.

The programme for the Poverty Bay Turf Club’s annual meeting is now to hand, and a perusal shows that it is a splendid one looked at in any way. The meeting will extend over two days, Thursday and Friday, February 13 and 14, 1908; and each day’s programme will comprise eight events. The various events are well endowed with prize money, so that it may be taken as quite certain that there will be a liberal response from horse-owners.
