THE ROYAL ARTILLERY STEEPLECHASES, 1892, 
WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE 
ALDERSHOT COURSE 
(By permission of the General Officer Commanding the Division), 
OH THE 30th APRIL, 
(UNDER NATIONAL HUNT RULES.) 
In accordance with a resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting, held in 
London, on the 6th June, 1891, the above Meeting will be held this year at 
Aldershot, on Saturday, the 30th April. 
The average subscriptions amount to about £450 per annum, and before 
certain additional expenses were incurred, this was sufficient, but as things now 
stand £600 is required to carry out the Meeting liberally and creditably without 
drawing on the reserve fund. 
All subscribers of £1 and upwards will be furnished with a receipt ticket, 
which they must bring with them if they attend the races, and on presenting this 
ticket at either of the pay boxes, they will receive in exchange a free pass for the 
stand, enclosures, &c. 
£1 has been fixed as the minimum subscription entitling the giver to a free 
pass, but smaller amounts will thankfully be received from those Officers who, 
though unable to be present, wish to assist in keeping up the Meeting as a 
regimental institution. 
There are 50 good loose boxes at the stables adjoining the Queen’s Hotel. 
Application should be made to Mr. F. Spicer, Southampton Road, Farnborough, 
Hants. The charge will be 5s. per night, including hay and straw, but not corn. 
Special trains will run both to Aldershot and Fleet Stations. The latter is 
the nearest Station to the Course, being a little over two miles. Arrangements 
will be made for conveyances meeting the special trains at Fleet, the usual 
charge being Is. 6d. to 2s. a head. Ambulances will, if possible, be furnished 
by the Royal Artillery at Aldershot to convey subscribers to the Course from 
Fleet Station, at a small charge. The hour of departure of the special trains 
will be advertised in the sporting papers a day or so before the Meeting. 
All letters connected with subscriptions should be addressed to Mr. E. H. 
Garland, R.A. Department, Messrs. Cox and Co., 16, Charing Cross, S.W., 
while correspondence connected with the racing proper, or any special matter, 
should be addressed to the Secretary.
