We again call attention to the important unreserved sale of thoroughbred mares the property of Mr. G. D. Greenwood, which is to take place during Grand National week in Christchurch. Full particulars will be found in this issue in Messrs. Pyne and Co.’s advertisement. There are fourteen lots in all, including some beautifullybred mares foaled in England, as well as those from imported mares or by imported and high-class sires and sires that proved excellent performers while racing in the Dominion. It is a long time since such a good allround lot were put on the market, and the instructions the auctioneers have received are to sell, as Mr. Greenwood is giving up breeding.

The Waterloo Cup meeting, under the auspices of the National Coursing Association of New Zealand, and controlled by the Wanganui Coursing Club, commences on Wednesday, and will be continued on Thursday and Saturday. Excellent nominations have been received, and the meeting promises to be a big success. Entries have come to hand from all parts of the Dominion, and three days’ high-class coursing are assured.
