Metropolitan Club's Greatest Fixture

EXCELLENT ACCEPTANCES HIGHEST GRADE HORSES ENGAGED The acceptances received for the opening day of the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club's monster Spring Carnival on Tuesday next are highly satisfactory and will ensure high-class racing. The cream of the Dominion’s pacers and trotters are engaged and given a favourable track fast times as well as exciting finishes should be recorded. SPRING HANDICAP (in harness), Of 300 sovs. Unlioppled trotters ; class 3.3 4. One mile and a half.

NEW ZEALAND TROTTING CUP Eighteen remain in the principal event, the New Zealand Cup, which this year gives promise of furnishing the keenest and perhaps hardest struggle yet witnessed for the big prize, and the ultimate result is still as open as a book. The only defection from the previous list is Shiek, who is still in Australia.
