METROPOLITAN TROTTING CLUB.

SPRING MEETING

NEW ZEALAND CUP DAY.

has never been seen to better advantage than it wns yesterday, when the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club's Spring Meeting was commenced tinder almost ideal conditions. The weather was fino and warm all day, and though a nor'-west breeze raised some dust towards tho close of the afternoon., this was but a minor discomfort that did not seriously affect the pleasure of the thousands of people who ivero present. -Judging by appearances, the attendance must have been a record one. Not only ivero both the inside and outside enclosures densely crowded, but. there were some hundreds of people in the centre of the course, aiul it is quite evident that the growing popularity of the light harness sport has made even the extensive stand accommodation at Addington quite unable to cope with the o-owds. The attendance ■was representative of all parts of the Dominion, and those who were for tho first time witnessing a high class trotting meeting could not- fail to be impressed by the attractiveness of the sport, while tho club's regular patrons were agreed that the racing provided ■was of an exceptionally high standard. The horses engaged included tho best paccrs nnd trott-ors in commission in Dominion, and there were several high class performers from Australia as well. The track was at its best, and_ except for the liiccarton Handicap, which was spoilt by a series of tho majority of the placed horses improved considerablv on their handicap times. With such a big attendance, it was only natural to find the totalisator investments showing a large tho total for the day being £90.-9G 10s, as compared with £76,291 on the first day last year. The total invested on tho New Zealand Trotting Cup was £20,00b. the largest sum yet registered on any event in the South Island. There were one or two matters during the day that called for the attention of the stewards, but in all respects the management of the A meeting was up to the efficient standard that is characteristic of gatherings at Addington. Tho 4 Spring Handicap, a harness event »for tinhoppied trotters over a mikf and fire furlongs, gave backers a <r o( }d start, for Efiio Bingen, who was made a solid favourite, scored m nice style from Overrate, who finished well. Cbnvnr quickly opened up a useful lead, lmt'he was tillable to ace the distance out, and was stopping, badly over tho last two furlongs. Wanvcra played up at- the start, and interfered with some of the other' competitors. Succory, tho second favourite, showed r. good ilea, of pace, but went unsteadily. Hayseed, who was well backed for the St ' Albans Handicap, endeavoured to win all the way, but he was never able to shake off Greta, and when she had him beaten, Xavier came along and cut him out of second place. This cleared the way for the big event of the year, tho New Zealand Cup, which with its stake of 2500 sovs, in addition* to a silver cup, is easily tho most yaluab e light harness race in Australasia. Or the sixteen horses that mado the final payment. Cello Sydney Wilkes, Moneymaker, John Dillon and Hal Junior were withdrawn. Albert Cling was made favourite with J. Bryce's bracket, Matchliglit and Erin's Queen, almost as well backed, and Author thllon, Trix Pointer and Sherwood bracketed, Wuno Lincoln and General Link supported in that order, there being a considerable difference betwen them and the rest of the field. The start was a g<?od one, but the supporters of Albert Cling were soon out of their trouble, for tho favourite would not leave tho mark properly, and meeting with some interference in the first half mile was never afterwards dangerous. Steel Bell br.oko soon after the start and again before they had gone six furlongs, and she never got near the firing -line. Author Dillon lost a little ground at the start, but settled to his work in determined style, and when he had reached his field before thev entered the last lap. lie looked to havo a royal chance. Willie Lincoln showed a fine turn of speed, as long as his condition lasted, and when he was done with General Link went on in the lead. Author Dillon was in hot pursuit over the last half mile, and entering the straight it looked as if the issue would be between this pair, but in the run home Reta Peter, the only unhopplcd trotter in the race, came with fC brilliant finish and staying on in fine style, while the other two were tiring, won a great raco by half a length from General Link with Author Dillon close up third and Sherwood next. Trix Pointer, last {year's winner, went 'well for over a mile and a half, but alter putting in a good run in the back stretch was blocked and could not get clear again. Minison was prominent in the early stages, and though Erin's Queen went well for a good part of the journey, she showed no dash at tho finish. Although Reta Peter was one of the outsiders of the field, and paid a liandsomo dividend, her victory was greeted with round after round of applause, for the public wero quick to lecognise the merit of her performance in defeating 6uch a strong field of pacers. Tho daughter of Petereta may be classed as the most brilliant trotter the Dominion lias seen, one whose performances have mado her deservedly popular. General Link paced his best raco to date, while Author Dillon was unlucky in being beaten after establishing an Australasian race record of 4min 21 4-sth sec for the two miles. Tho Trotting Cup of 1920 will long b<? remembered as* one tff the most exciting in the club's history. Coil, who was made favourite for the Empire Handicap, gave a disappointing display, but the race itself was very interesting. Mara was quickly out in front, but could not see tho journey out, and Rewanui, staying on well, beat Silver Shoe, with Prince Burlington close up in third place, j After the race an enquiry was held re-! garding alleged interference by tho winner with Prince Burlington, but the stewards decided to take no action. The Riccarton Handicap was marked by an extraordinary series of mishaps. Go-! ing out of the straight the first time, Maoriland and Mako Mako collided and came down, and lrvar ran into them, and his driver, W. Warren, was shot i out of his sulky, but quickly regained his seat and continued in the race, j though his chanco was hopeless. The two fallen horses had not been got off the track when tho remaining competitors came round again, and Emperor, who was then leading, failed to get clear, and his driver, F. Holmes, was thrown out on tho track in front of Capriccio, who went over him. Luckily, all the horses and drivers escaped uninjured. Tho second mishap left Bundong well out in front, hut Legacy outstayed him and beat him home, with All Bell third. Tho Middle-ton Handicap brought out a good field of sixteen unnoppled trotters, the bracketed pair, Wh isnt and Paul Huon, being best backed. Bon Patch was early out in front, and never lost his place, though he had to bo driven out to stall off Red Heather, who put in a fine run over tho last half-mile. The Victoria Handicap was another fast-run race. Jack Arrah was always prominent, andi finishing strongly, won in good stylo from G. -M. Dillon, with Man o' War close un third. last-named, who is one of the Australian horses in J. Bryce's stable, showed a great turn of speed, as his time of 4min 27 3-olh. sec proves, but ho was bofing badly all through tho race, and his driver had a difficult task in trying to. keep him straight. J. Bryce's stable supplied the favourites for the concluding event, the Hagley Handicap, in the bracketed pair, Emilius and Chid, but the Aus- . tralian-bred, Dillonwood waa in front

from the start, and, pacing well, hold off Gloaming in tho run liomo.

Dean Dillon failed to striko a gait :n cmickly as lie might liaeo done, and Albert Cling 'broke badly. Tho remainder wont off io tlWr correct bolls. Erin's Queen nml Mintson hit out at a- rary> yoce, and the trotter Reta Pot-or began Kuxpri singly well. Willie, Lincoln followed <lio trio over tho fir' 9 furlong, but then improve! his position, r-.uv ing to tho head of affairs entering tho straight, and carrying on tho running pas':, tho stand, with Erin's Queen. At this st«!r-> Mintson nnd General Link wore running third mid fourth respectively, and Sherwood, De-nn Dillon, and Reta Peter were clo!>e handy, while Author Billon, pacing faultlessly, liad not been asked for nn effort. Willie Lincoln went off by "himself going do mi th.i bnck stretch, airrl General Link passed Erin'.-* Queen. Tito order was tho samo to the stand, but "Willie Lincoln appeared to bo feeling tho effects of tho fast pace. General Link made a forward move, and Author Dillon considerably improved his position. When General Link drew clear tlv?ro wan great excitement, and when Author Dillon was seen coming «!t a groat rate tho excitcment hecamo intense. Author Dillon camo into thu straight ft length behind General Link, an.l Harden and Butteriield commenced a vigorous battle. Tho grent effort appeared tit have taken a lot out of Author Dillon, and General Link travelled with him. Fifty yards from the post Rets Peter appeared on the ecene, and with a brilliant finishing effort she got up in time to beat General Link by half a length, Author Dillon be ins a n?rk away third, two lengths in front of Sherwood. Erin's Queen, Willio Lincoln, rnd Matohliglif, were tho next to finish. Times—lm 30 L'-Ss, ! 4ra 27 3-sff, 4m 21 4-ss, 4m 32 2-.55. Following are tho wimicr3 of the race: — Hep. Time. Tr.
