NEW RULES OF RACING, ' " By Telegraph Press Association—OopyTifylit m , ' Sydney, August 22. The annual meeting of the Australian Jockey Club decided that the new Rules of Racing shall be operative from November ia It was dqcided to : increase the price of official stand tickets to .CI a day at tho summer, autumn,. and ' New Year meetings, and 10s. a day .at other meeting's. The added money increases include making the 1913 prize .£IOOO, and the cures Produce Stakes of 1914 prize £2500. NOTES AND COMMENTS. .[By Glencoe.] Owner-trainer .T. Hennah whs in Wellington yesterday making arrangements tor tho shipping of Captain .Tingle and Continuance to Sydney by next week's boat. Both horses avc to he nominated, for the Steeplechases at the Australian I •Tockey Club's spring meeting and • Con-! tinuance will also figure in the hurdlo races.- as well as Paisano- and' Black Jsortheru. # Of the two last mentioned,' the first across in ' charge of Jockey T. N. Jones, > who is a brother to the well-known truiner of that name. •Black Northern will go over in charge of his owner (Mr. W..Montgomery), and, on arrival, will be placed, in tho stables of T. A. Williams, formerly of Ellcrslic, Of the pair that are going in Charge of J. Hennah, Captain Jinglo is once more reported sare —an ailment w;hich we heard so ranch of before his victories at Napier, Trentham, and Riccarton.- Continuanco is not quite himself, and he has a very large knee, this being the result of a knock received by getting too close to the log lenco.at Riccarton. The last-mention-ed pair will arrive from Lyttelton this morning, and will lie taken to Trentham to await '.the date of departure. It will be mtorestirig to watch whether their trainer can keep up his wonderful run' of success. This is. his first visit ■ to Sydney, and possibly his .methods of proparing his' steeplechasers mav cause merriment in the ranks of Raiidwiek trainers, who will no doubt ouickly form an opinion, of their own. Honnnh docs 'not believe in the old-fashioned methods of working horses, and prier to the Trentham and Riccarton meetings hie misled several mornings* work on, the track, and, instead of &n.llopin.s or jumping, lie allowed his.charge to exercise himself in. n big paddock, and - also had him trotted over a, hill. His track work wa.s restricted to short-sprints of half a mile,' and rarely did lie do more. The old hands at the training game all voted the horso short'of work, but the! fallacy of this was subsequently proved when he won' 'both big races here'and then capped all by scoring,'ip tlb.e-National. That the prejudice, is now breaking down will be seen in; the . fact flint the owner of Continuance ha,s entrusted his horse to Honnah's care. Amaru. . full-sister to Polyanthus has been sold to a well-known Hastings sportsmam. whose intention it i.« to try the daughter'of-the Possible and Violet over the battens. The Bezonian—Chain«tiMi filly in ,T. W. Lowe's, stables is to lie named Secret Link. Word from Sydney states that Tfohinoor ill an Bed hands there recently for the sum of 275 guinea*. ' Now. that the trip to Randwick with the Chokebore team.has been cancelled, the light-weight jockey, O. Emerson, will probably return at.once to Neiv Zealand, and be in time for the early spring meetings here. Bracken is tlie latest horse to be tried over hurdles, and it is said that the Blenheim-owned gelding will figure in the hack hurdle events at Otaki nest month. Mr. R. H. Skjpwith has been aopointed starter to the Rangitikci Racing Club. Locally Bronw is the favourite far the New Zealand Cup, being quoted at tho *ery short price of 8 to T. Undecided is second 'favourite. Probably the.so arc tho only hoi'ses-'that have been supported to any extent so far. Mr.'E.-.T. Watt's team of- horses to compete at the Australian spring meetings leave for Sydney by to-day's steamer. They go in charge.of T. Rninlkan, junr. During the latter' 3 abseneo in Australia,

Mr. Watt's horses in training in tlie I)iv miniou will bo in charge of "\\. Whittaker. Should Bronze succeed in winning tho A.J.C. Metropolitan Handicap she would only incur lib. penalty for tho Zealand Cup. That good old 'chaser, Kintcro, is reported to have boon following the hounds at Cambridge last week and to have been looking a.s well a? ever. Various stories are in as ts what took place duriug tho hearing of evidence at tho inquiry after the race tor the Grand National Hurdle*. Reasons aro advanced for the purpose of itu-nmng tiie stewards, and on the. other hand there are contentions made with a view nidicatin» that their decision was not justified. It is alleged that one of the wituej-M'S flatly contradicted another as to w'Vjt took place during the scrimmage. Quite the most sensational allegation at present in the air is that one of the-stew-ards, who sat on tho inquiry, was under the impression that Young rode rhe Native and Price .rode Paisano, It is turther said that this steward only discovered his mistake when tho whole thing nail been dealt with. ! Among the . horses at present 111 work at Hastings is a three-year-old son of tho imported horse Guzeley and Mimic sister to Parable). ,
