"Whalebone" writes in his notes that at the Ohinemuri Jockey Club's annual meeting two prominent light weights came into conflict in a race —Victor Cotton ami J. l'inker Cotton cut Pinker over the face with his whip, and alleged interfeiitice If the interference was intentional' Pinker was lucky to escapu punishment at tho hundK ol the stewards and Cotton was luckier still. It js i egret table that these promising lads should liavo black marks set against their names. It is a mistake to show leniency even 1o lirst olTeudcrs, atwl though it would have come hard on both boys, who can get no end of riding, to huve a\ispenUed them for their conduct, lliev should be thankful to the Ohinctuurl stewards for taking a lenient view therpof. A meeting of thp Taranaki Jockey Club committee will be held on April 14 to consider the revised rules prepared by Sir George Clif- 1 ford and Mr Samuel. ' St. Clements is the latest of St. 1 I.ejrer's sons to claim distinction us 1 a sire.
