AUSTRALIAN RACING.
BANDWICK SPRING MEETING. KILBOT WINS THE DEBBf. (Australian and X:z. Cable Association.) SYDNEY, October 3. After having to make two postponements of the inaugural day's sport in connection with their Spring Meeting owing to wet weather, the Australian Jockey Clnb "were enabled to bring oft the : same at Randwick this kftern'oon. The weather was fine, but the face track was, of course, heavy. The New Zealand mare Kooya was made favourite for the Hurdle Race, but she had to strike her colours to the top-weight, Jack Rice. The field for the Derby numbered 16. the New Zealand colt Kilboy being elevated to the position of favourite.. In the early stages of the contest Kilboy was whipping in the field; but when the last half-mile came to be undertaken the favourite went up with his challenge, and, disposing of the opposition, ran home an easy winner. The victory of Kilboy was very popular. Polyerates, which was sent out favourite for the Epsom Handicap, put tip a great finish, against an outsider in Panacre, to whom he succumbed.
The ■Spring Stakes brought out a good iield of la, Sasanoff being favourite. The summing up in favour of the New Zealand gelding proved to be well justified, and after being- well placed throughout, he scored by half a length from Bee, which also hails from Maorllahd.
