CANTERBURY NOTES.

(By Telegraph—Own Correspondent.)

During the past week the Addington track has been too soft to admit of training operations. Fortunately the new training track is in fairly good order, and quite a number of horses are being exercised on it.

At their two meetings this season the Canterbury Park and New Brighton Trotting Clubs made profits of £2979 and £2764 respectively.

M. Edwards was unable to make the trip north to the Waikato meeting in consequence of a serious operation that had to be undergone by his wife. Fortunately, it was successful, and she is now out of danger.

That successful trainer, J. McLennan, who has had charge of Mr. W. Doyle’s horses for some years, is now established on his own account at Leeston, where he has several horses in work.

T. G. Fox recently purchased a very promising yearling colt by Prince Imperial from Bequest. The last-named mare, who has been an inmate of Fox’s stable for some time, is now being tried by F. E. Jones.
