Otlier meetings set down for to-moribw are Carterton, Ohinemuri and Amberley. Handy fields are carded at Carterton, and as the Clareville course is within reasonable reacli of Wellington and Horowhen.ua, the club ean expect good support from these parts.

Rain that has been falling in the Wellington province since Wednesday shows signs of clearing up this morning, but the Clareville course on whieh the Carterton meeting is being heid, is holding, Wairarapa having had its fair share of rain. Win and place betting will operate at all the above fixtures and the following horses should perform well in their engagements at the respeetive meetings.
