Mr. Encarnacao Is Most Successful Jockey
THE FIRST EXTRA MEETING OF THE HONG- KONG JOCKEY CLUB, WHICH TOOK PLACE ON SATURDAY, was favoured by fine weather, and an eager, though not large, crowd witnessed an after- The noon of good racing and fairly good dividends.

HANDICAPPING
The handicapping, "for the (First Hongkong Handicap Section), which was the sixth race on Saturday at the Valley, appears to have been some. what odd.
1
In the upper portion of the race card for this race, the various handicaps are given. In a footnote, it is stated that Rosc Elect does not accept, the
will following weights
Bear Claw. De- apply. sert Chiet and King's Warden are raised five lbs. each. Red Featurer is raised only two lbs. and Moonlight View, Rob Roy and Wild Life remain the same. The weights for the last three ponies were, therefore, unchanged whether Rose Elect started or not. Surely the cor- rect thing to do is to state that top weight (Rose Elect)" not accepting. "all weights would be raised five pounds;"
Why should Rob Roy and Wild Life and Moonlight View not be penalised two to five pounds should Rose Elect not run,
This handicapping is surely unique!
