Business on the New Zealand Cup in the local hotting market has livoned up a bit during the week (says the Auckland Herald), but though a good number of horses continue to be inquired for the southern race is not being attacked this year by the great body of backers as of yore. Simultaneously with Lady Lillian weakening, as the result of an ailment, Wairiki was exalted to his old position at the head of the quotations, and a commission being worked in his favor he was speedily at 6to 1. Boseal, Pampero, and Canteen aro thelthree others most inquired for. and another of whose quiet backing thero is some evidence is Count of Kolmar. The following prices were quoted last night: 6 to 1 Wairiki 100 to 11 Boseal 100 to 10 Canteen' 100 to 10 Pampero
The Wellington-Bacing Club are advertising for a secretary. The salary attaching to the office is per annum, with the right to undertake oertain defined outside work by consent of the stewards. Abundance is a strong favorite for the Melbourne Cup. A totalisator, worked by electricity, and apparently different little from Mr H. Reynold’s patent, is now working very satisfactorily in South Australia.
The next payment in connection with the New Zealand Cup falls due on Friday next.
