The Otaki Maori Racing Club is to be congratulated on the nominations received for its June meeting, the number being about thirty in excess of June 1i!22. It is expected that the acceptances will be very satisfactory. It is regretted that among those who will not be sporting silk at tlie Otaki races will be W. .1. Bowden and C. Jenkins, 'noth horsemen of the highest order. 1; is hoped, however, that both
