The Chater Cup is the only trophy set aside for Australian Griffins of this season and in the circumstance one must admit that the Stewards have been more considerate to the "small owners" than to the "big shots."
Griffin No. 44 (which was held over on account of being dotty) was sold last week without reserve and the bay mare has now a private stall in Mr S. W. Lee's stable who paid $1,050 for the progeny of Rubus out of Boonahwah.

THERE ARE MANY changes in this year's programme for the Annual Carnival, to be held on February 15, 17, 18, 19 and 22. There is a sub- stantial increase of stake money prizes, especially in all the races confined to Australian subscription and griffins of this season,
THERE ARE ALTOGETHER 57 events (an in- crease of five over last year's programme) to be contested during the five days of racing, with the inclusion of only 16 handicap races against an ag- gregate of 26 of the last carnival meeting.
