TAUMABUNUI RACING CLUB.

annual meeting. GLENOPAL WINS CUP. The Taumarunui Racing- Club held their annual meeting on Saturday in fine though not altogether pleasant weather. a strong gale being in evidence, the dust raised therefrom constituting a source of nuisance to the club’s patrons.

McMahon, chief stipendiary steward, was present, and during the afternoon a number of cases of . careless _ riding and interference were inquired into, a warning being deemed sufficient in each instance. R. Preston, rider of Pre-emin-ent in the Owhango Handicap, was severely cautioned for crossing, while interference was the complaint laid against J. O’Shea, H. Young and R. Reed, each of whom escaped with a caution. The sum of £11,622 10s. was handled on the totalisator, as against £9615 10s. for last year’s gathering, an increase of £2007.
