Some of the fane aro positively feverish with impatience to get back to the course, and everywhers, there are · indications that to-day's meeting will be an unqualified success even from the point of view of attendance alone.

The course is in fine conditior, but racing to-day will not be on the extended grass track, as it is considered that the turf is not yat in a condition to stand the wear and tear of a day's racing. A temporary rail has been constructed, and the racing to- day will be on practically the same course as prior to the summer interval.'
