THE WANGANUI J.C. AUTUMN MEETING.
The autumn meeting of the Wanganui Jockey Club will be commenced to-day and brought to a termination on Saturday. Everything appears to point to a highly successful gathering, for the fixture is a popular one and the acceptances are first-class. There are eleven horses still left in the Cup, including two Auckland Cup winners in Zimmerman and Master Delaval, and the result appears remarkably open. On the second day Elevation’s half-brother Gravitation will through down the gauntlet to Sir George Clifford’s Glenculloch and Millionaire, and this should be a race worth watching. All the other events have drawn good acceptances, so that with fine weather those who assist at the fixture should witness some highclass sport. Those left in the Cup are —
Zimmerman 9.4, Master Delaval 8.13, Marguerite 8.8, Gold Crest 8.5, Moloch 7.13, The Lark 7.12, Tangimoana 7.12, Waitapu 7,6, Saga 6.9, Signor 6.9, Uhlando 6.8.
