AUCKLAND TROTTING CLUB’S AUTUMN MEETING.

On Saturday next the Auckland Trotting Club will make a commencement with the autumn meeting at Alexandra Park. A programme of eight events will be gone through, and as in all instances the acceptances are large, the prospect of some good trotting and exciting pony racing seems unusually good. There is plenty of time between now and next Saturday for the weather to clear up, but if it does not the track must prove holding, as over nine inches of rain have fallen in the last four weeks. Matters in the sporting line have been rather dull in Auckland for some time, so that in the event of a fine day the attendance .should be large. In addition to the ordinary serivce, a number of extra cars will be run out to the park, where Mr. C. F. Mark and his staff may be relied upon to have everything quite up to date. The acceptances for the first day’s events will be found in another column.
