On the fourth page will be found the programme of the Daunevirke Jockey Club’s annual meeting which will be held on the 6th and 7th March, 1907. Since the last annual race meeting the whole of the course has been thoroughly top-dressed and re-sown, and it now presents a splendid body of grass, and will compare favourably with any in the colony. The stakes offered total £I4OO. A number of loose-boxes have already been ordered by trainers and owners, and everything points to a most successful meeting. . The name of the mure Office Girl, entered in the Maiden Scurry at the Foxton Meeting, has been altered to Command, on account of the fornrer name being disallowed. At a committee meeting of the Mar : ton Jockey Club this week, the tender of Mr Alex. Ijfrowu, pf MgrtoUj was accepted for additions and alterations to the appointments at the Marton racecourse.’ The contract includes thp removal of all the appointments, enlarging the jockeys room to double its size, and erecting about eighteen stalls, The judge’s box will be shifted further, down the course, allowing another chain or so for finishing.
