RACING NOTES.

FANLING HUNT.

A KILL.

{BY RAPIER]

On Xmas morning the meet was at Potts Bungalow under Mr. A Potts with Messrs. Bouafield and Macgowan as whips. The hounds moved off at 10.13 and the shrubbery, at the back of Souza's Bungalow was drawn. The hounds gave. tongue and a fox cover and made off in the direction of the Portuguese Golf Club. After a run of about a mile dowa the Valley in full view James was pull- ed down and the hounds bad their initial blooding. The brush, mask and pads were removed by Dr. Macgowan and, following the usual ritual, the brush was presented to the first lady up who was Mrs. R. J. Patersou and the mosk now adorns the walls of "the Hunters Arms.

Wolfe and Mr. ". M. Dyer. The fold! lined up in two ranks and was despatch-. ed by Commander Broadley, About 30 yards from the start there was a fair sized jump and its negotiation caused trouble to several riders. At the second check the field divided and the bunch that followed the right course never looked back, afterwards. The finish was a close one and good old Reynolds judiciously ridden by Stanton eventually proved the winner. Potts led the fold practically the whole way but on coming through the wood near the finish he bad the misfortune to go straight on instead The order cr o turning to the right. duishing was as follows:-

1.-Stanton's Reynolds. 2-Keidy's Mowgli. 3-Pym's Two Pairs. 4-Capt. Browne's Bertram. 5.-Potts Craigavad.
