THE W.R.C. MEETING

The summer meeting of the Wellington Racing Club will be brought to a conclusion at Trentham to-day, when with lino weather there should bo another very large attendance. Special trains will leave Te Aro for the course at 10.28 and 10.48 a.m., and will depart from Lambton at 10.25, 10.45,11.5 a.m., and 12.15 p.m., and it seems very probable their seating capacity null be fully taxed. The acceptances, except in the two-year-old race, are good all round, and it looks as though there will be some very exciting racing, while the winners may prove difficult to find. The acceptances are as follow : VVAIxLACBVILLE WELTER HANDICAP,

AT TRENTHAM It was very foggy yesterday morning at Trentham, and as a result there was a difficulty in seeing the horses. Very little work was done, as the two days’ racing has given the gallopers all they wanted in the way of work. Stepney hit out fov a willing six furlongs on the grass, going freely. Blue Lake ran four furlongs on the tan in 61£sec. Exertion got over four furlongs smartly in 51 3-ssec. Imagination wont a mile on the grass, which took her Imin 45 4-ssec to accomplish. She seemed to tire a bit at the finish. Black Lupin went four furlongs, but did not look too well. Sinapis executed a particularly pleasing round on the tan, going very freely throughout. Powder Fox, who is one of the hotheaded sort, went the last four 0 f a five furlong gallop in 50 4-ssec. Undecided did easy work on the tan. Lady Georgia has burst a foot and will not be able to run for some time. Lady Volga, Seaweed, and Raupara arrived at headquarters on Thursday night.
