CAMERON’S CHRISTCHURCH AUTUMN HANDICAP CONSULTATION, £4OOO. Race on 18th April, 1881.—Fee, £l. First, £7OO ; Second, £3OO ; Third, £2OO. Starters, £BOO. Non-starters, £2OOO. Total, £4OOO. Starters (divided) average about £134 each ; Nonstarters (divided) average about £IOO each. There is no such liberal Division as above given in the Colonies for either Starters or Non starters. Attention is drawn to the fact that in all the important Races, both in Australia and New Zealand, a large proportion of the Horses originally nominated are subsequently struck out of their engagements, and therefore the drawers of non-starters in nearly all other Consultations receive but a very ti’ifling and almost infinitesimal amount each, and in many instances they receive actually less than the amount of their aplication fee for a non-starter. Cheques to be crossed, with Is exchange added. Two postage stamps. Close about 13th April. ALFRED A, CAMERON, Box 251, Dunedin. Agent in Kmnara district at Globe Hotel Dillman’s Town.
