H. H. Priestley, the genial President of the Club, who incidentally was the winning owner of the meeting. Mr. Priestley's candidates won two races and secured two third places. Altogether five Hong Kong ponies won, three were pinzed second, and four were placed fourth.

Backers had nothing to complain about regarding the divi dends, which, considering the form of most of the winners, were very good. Mr. Proulx, who rode a second on Sutherland, paid the biggest divvy of the meeting, which was $27.80.

Mr. G. I da Roza was the winning jockey, with two wins and two seconds. Mr. Wong came next with two wins. "Mr. Clark. Mr. Charles, and Mr. Backhouse each rode one winner. The last named jockey put another notch to his winning mounts "by win- ning the novice's race on" Grey Eyes.

Major Hogg took "the place of Mr. Fiddes-Wilson as starter. and with a few exceptions managed to get the fields away in good style.

THE RACING.

October Novice Race. Proceedings started in business- like style by the success of Grey Eyes, who accounted for the open ing event by a comfortable margin. Backhouse, who had the mount, showed good judgement in the handling of the winner, keeping him well together until pressed, when he came away and quickly disposed of U. Un II and Ching Hai, who filled the places.

The Coimbra Handicap "A" Class Backers summed the situation very cleverly, the three best backed animals occupying the leading.. placca at the finish.
