kuvera and cumbrian win. a Sensational suspension. MELBOURNE, November 6. A sensation was caused at Flemington yesterday,. the last day of the Melbourne Cup Carm-ial, when the leading jockey, VV. Duncan, who won the Melbourne Cup on Peter Pan on Tuesday, was suspended for three months. The sentence was imposed after the Flemington Stakes, in which Duncan rode Hall Mark into second place. It was alleged that he crossed too sharply after going a furlong and interfered with Kinfauns and Johannes. At the Randwick carnival last month J. E. Pike, who had a run of success similar to that of Duncan, suffered the same penalty for coming in too quickly on the field.

The weather was dull and there was a largo attendance.

Turbine scored a comfortable win in the Batman. The rider, M. McCarten, had won the race previously on Cathmar and Ramulus. The trainer, J. King, prepared Cathmar.

In a gre.it finish in the Flemington Stakes L'Elite won narrowly from Hall Mark. Limarch (N.Z.), third, spoilt an excellent chance by running about near the finish. L'Elite is a stable-mate of the consistent Scalpel.

Kuvera, who was fifth early, finished brilliantly to win the C. B. Fisher Plate. He is trained by the former New Zealander, George Price, who won with Veilinoiicl last year. Gaine Carrington (N.Z.) made a good effort for second. The apprentice, E. 0. Britt, rode the winner.

Cimbrian, ridden by Js. Baxter, led all the way in the V.R.C: Handicap and won for the second successive year. He is trained by the former New Zealander,' L. Robertson.

In an exciting finish 'in the Ottawa Stakes the Adelaide-owned Ivorine won narrowly from Variance. She was ridden by W. Bevis. Pantheon, sire of Worini, also got Peter Pan. The New Zealander, Prestige, was unplaced. Idle Banter was sixth to the turn and finished fast to win the Final Handicap. The trainer, R. Sinclair, had a good juvenile. Royal Feast, a few years ago.
