RANGITIKEI MEETING
WIN-AND-PLACE BETTING
The Rangitikei Racing Club was originally allotted Ist and 2nd March for its Annual Meeting this year, but the club has decided to use only one day of its permit, and it has applied for and has been granted Bth March for the meeting.
A good programme of seren events has been drawn up, and it should entice satisfactory support. The main event is the Eangitikei Handicap, replacing the Rangitikei Cup, and run over seven, furlongs instead of one mile and a quarter. Undoubtedly this move ias been made because there are better open short-distance horses about at present than middle-dis-tance horses. The stake is 90 soys, including plate valued at 15 soys. There is also a Hack Cup, of 85 soys (including cutlery valued at 20 soys), run over seven furlongs. The other events carry stakes of from £50 to £65. The club, as most other clubs are doing, has decided to operate the popular win-and-place totalisator. Admission charges have been much reduced. Nominations for all- events close on Monday 20th February. v
