RACING CONFERENCE. Per Press Association. > •> Wellington, July 14. The Racing Conference decided in future, riders of the first four horses in a race be required to weighin, instead of only the placed horses. A remit was also adopted that boys disqualified for “obvious pulling' should be given the right of appeal. A motion by the president that the conference appoint racecourse detcc- . tives for all meetings, was lost. A remit from the Wellington District Clubs that all licenses to jockeys and ; trainers be issued by the Conference was discussed at length, and it was carried by nineteen votes to sixteen, but as three-fourths majority was required, the proposal was rejected. ,SOUTH CANTERBURY HUNT CLUB’S ACCEPTANCES.
