TJie Jockey Club has decided in the event of Cabinet raising the racing embargo on Thursday to hold the Randwick meeting on the 17th, 19th, 21st and 24th. Final forfeits are due on the 15th.

He hears the appearance of being a first-class horse, and, good though his Thompson Handicap performance was, the best may not have been scon of him, because his condition for that event could have been improved on.
