CANTERBURY JOGKET CLUB'S SUMMER MEIJnNG. . The Summer Meeting of the Canterbury Jockey Cub will.be concluded to-day, and the second day's racing will probably create more interest than tEat on the, firet day. Indeed, it is certain that it will be so, for the contest in the Middle Park Plat* -will create interwt jevcn outside of Canterbury. The race promises to be an extremely interesting one. The presence of Mr "Douglass GordonV brilliant three-year-old Achilles is sufficient to make this meeting a memorable one. The Medallion colt has earned the maximum penalty, 101b, co that he will have to carry 9st lOlb. Tomorrow 'has incurred a penalty, which makes her weight 7et 61b. This fiUy showed brilliant form in the Welcome Stakes at the New Zealand Cup Meeting, and she has lately been galloping well on the tracks. Machine Gun has not yet raced, but he is a finely-grown coit. He was on the course during the racing on Thursday, and while he. was in the paddock was Uie subject of much admiring comment. Orloff, who has also incurred » 101b penally, may be one of the field. The Canterbury Derby winner is very fast. Achilles, on paper, appears to have the best prospect of success, but he is meeting some brilliant racehorses, and the promise of a well-contested race should bring a good attendance to Riccarton. Those who are fortunate enough to witness the race witt see the most brilliant three-year-okJ in New Zealand competing against come of the best of the season's two-year-olds.
