When racing in England was suspended, a larger number of the leading owners, trainers nnd jockeys went to Ireland, where the popular sport is enjoying its best season on record. Although at tho time of the suspension in England an effort was made to cancel further meetings in the Emerald Isle no interference occurred. The stewards of the Irish Turf Club have received permission from the war cabinet to publish the following additional program of flat race meetings: Mul-lingar, July 10; Claremorris, 17; Limerick, 18; Thurles, 23; The Curragh, 24, 25 and 20; Galway. August 1 and 2, and The Curragh, August 12. Lord Carnarvon, Major Clayton, T. Davidson, W. xtaphael and R. R. Tliorburn are a few of the best known English owners who have registered their colors to race in Ireland.
