Pour Wellington riders will appear on t the cinders. They will be Wally I KLilmister, who impressed Aucklanders ! so greatly with his riding here early j in the season, IST ay lor, another speed- L ster, who has ridden well in mother centres, Harvey and Tonks. Auckland’s team has not yet been selected finally, but will probably be Alf Mattson, the Dominion champion. Ben Bray, Jack Garmson and Bert Coyle. All four have done excellently on the cinders here and should make the series against the visitors very interesting indeed. Covle was the outstanding figure at Saturday’s meeting, carrying off the finals of both the Norton Cup round and the Farewell Handicap. He is aB j grade rider. Butler was not up to his form of a week earlier, and, although he carried off the Norton Cup by virtue of the big lead he had gained previously, he did not pass the semi-finals.
