WELLINGTON RACING CLUB.

SUMMER MEETING. The Wellington Racing Club’s summer meeting comes up for decision on Saturday and Monday, and the good all-round acceptances suggest a highly successful fixture. The fields should be well up to the best averages of previous years, and the class of horses down to compete in the handicap races includes many of the best in commission, both in the open and hack sections, while the two-year-olds include a fair number of the useful order.
