The committee has been paying attention to the course, and improvements have been effected that will certainly meet the approval of those who are already familiar -with the excellent conditions prevailing at this one of the smaller meetings. The conduct of last year's two-day meeting was very favourably commented upon by owners and others . closely connected with racing, and it is anticipated tliat everyone interested in the sport will be more than satisfied this year.
