Mr Duncan Hepburn has disposed of bis racehorse Cynical, by Cynic—Myra, to Mr Yuille, a southern sport, for the sura of £2OO. Cynical's win in the High Weight Handicap at the Hawke's Bay Jockey Club's Autumn Meeting, and the City Stakes at the Napier Park last week, together with the handsome dividends of £6 14*, and £l3 10s respectively, has caused a good round sum to come to this district, as a good many pounds were sent from here—by the knowing ones—to be invested on the horse. Cynical is nominated in four events at the approaching Auckland Easter Meeting.
