Elertroeute was ealle.d off for stnrtinc; before his .time in' the Stewards' Handicap at Canterbury Park yesterday, and liis driver, J. Wright, was fined £5. L. Davidson, the driver of Hutnn.i in the Trmp'.eton TTandieap, was fined SS'2 tor discbeyinj; tho starter. Favourites fared badly at Canterbury Park yesterday, and Ureadalbane, winner of the Kaihvay Handicap, was tlio only first selection .to scorc during the afternoon, though Eeveral others wero placed. Hoymotta raced consistently, but unluckily, yesterday, finishing third in the Temploton Handicap, and fecond in tho Lyttelton Handicap. Mintson has been racing well in portant events durinjr tlie past month, but has had little luck. He was third in tho principal raco on each day of the New Brighton Club's Summor Meeting on December 13th and lfi>'h. occupied a pimilar position in tho Ashburton Trottinrr Cup on Boxing Day, and was a Rood fourth in the Champion Handicap at Canterbury Park yesterday. Apathos. who won the Champion Handicap at Canterbury Park yesterday, was the actual outsider of the field, but apart from th.' first and second favourites, it was a very even bettin.™ racc, and the dividend was not exceptionally bit;. Tho O.Y.M. was en his best behaviour, and half a milo from home lie showed such a fino burst of speed that ho entered tho straichfc with a sufficient lead to enable him to stall off th:- strong eHillenrres thrown out by Trix Pointer and Cello Sydney Wilkes. Trix Pointer, who was favourite, finished with her usual determination, nnd Cello Sydney Wilkos also paced very veil. Author Dillon, however, gave a very disappointing display. He berran badly, and though lie showed speed in patches during tho race his form was a long way below liis best. AUCKLAND R.C.'S STTjrSTEB MEETING. (srECtAL TO "CTIK PP.ES? ") AUCKIvAXD, January 1.
