Mr. T. L. Wong arrived, from Shanghai on Monday and was seen out yesterday with Mr. Ho Rom. Tong's ponies and with the Leafs." Ho will probably be riding for these two stables at the meeting. Mr. H. C. Pili, a ier-comer to the local course, is also here. He is one of the leading jockeys in Shanghai and no doubt will not take long before he establishes a good nama for himself in racing circles here. Mr. Clark, who rode for Messrs. Hynes and Mackie a few years buck, is here again and will be riding for Mosers, Mackio and Grayburn this year. He will take charge; amongst other candidates of Spoy, t'griffin, and Jill, a very good old popy."
