NEW ZEALAND GRAND NATIONAL MEETING.

SECOND DAY.

The Canterbury Jockey Club was favoured with splendid weather for the second day of the Grand National Meet—g, nod ths attendance at Riccarton yesterday was excellent-, though the number of spectators did not reach Tuesday's total. Such exceptionally good weather is not often experienced in August, and it is not surprising „at the people turend out in> large numbers. His Excellency the Governor snd party were again present. Tlie totalizator business was brisk throughout the day, for the field*were generally large and the races of an open character. The total of the machine investments, £15,56?*, is £996 more than the sum speculated on the- second day of 'last season's Grand National Meeting. " For the opening race of the day Scylla, ihi Stepniak—Whitefoot mare, that won the Ladies' Bracelet so easily on Tuesday, was a slightly better favourite than Culcita, while Narcissus, Shellback-, and Blarney were the recipients of a lot of public favour. Shylock was a quietly whispered fancy in the paddock, for he had been taken out of the Beaufort Steepkcba_e to win this race, the Sumner Handicap. Shylock was one of the quickest to get going, but before long Good Spec was in front, and, with Flame in attendance, he carried on the running at a smart pace. Good Spec hod had enough at the end of six furlongs, retiring in favour of Narcissus, Flam., Shellback, and Scylla. Coming into the straight, Shellback was holding a clear lead, and, though Scylla challenged strongly, she could not reach the Nelson colt, who "won, by a. good length. Count of Ko—_r gained-third place, after holding a good position all through the race. Culcita disappointed his backers very much, for at no tig—t did he look at all like making a race -frith the leaders. The August Handicap field consisted of the eleven acceptors. Blazer was' co_sidered to have th* best chance of winning, and wa_ made a good favourite from Coxa Linn and Titoki. Blazer looked very well, and on the score of appearance, quite justified the confidence of his backers. In the actual .vice he was never prominent. He was, like Cora Linn, slow off the mark, while Titoki, Goldspur, and Lady Brandt galloped awnj from the barrier very smartly. Rounding the top turn, Goldspur was in front, and he was going so well all the way up the straight that his name was. loudly proclaaned as the who. iex. However, Titoki found an opening on the rails, after passing the distance, and,.'; getting down to his work" in. line style, tlia Puriri gelding managed to pass tlie post a nose in front of the tiring Goldspur. Rosemere was only a neck away third, with Somerled, half a length behind, fourtn, and Winsome, close up, fifth. This was a, good finish. GoKlspur' had 'been suffering from rheumatism, and had not been alMe to do much work, or else the game old horse would have been able to withstand 'Tjtoki's'.'ci—llenge. The. Hunt Club Cup 'Steeplechase.'was regarded as a very sui\y victory for the Chaos gelding, Brab, who had won _o easily on the first day. was made a very hot favourite, but was no match for Zither on the flat,. In jumping Brab was far more proficient, for Zither made several faulty jumps, but once, over the obstacles he quickly madi-'/, Up ;, the ground he had lost.in leaping/-The race was confined to ■ Zither and Brab", who were out by themselves after a mile had been traversed. After the Hunt OM> Cup was over people hurried to the paddock to look at the Grand National candidates. The Guard, Moifaa, Haydn, Cannongate, Strathnairn, Smithy, and Winsome were the withdrawals, from the nineteen coloured on the card. The Guard could not start after his 'severs fall on Tuesday, Moifaa was hois de combat also, Haydn did not" take part j in the race for fear he might ; over-reach ■ •himself again, nod open the wound .he made on Tuesday, Cannongate was re-, served for r the Beaufort Steeplechase, Strathnairn had disgraced himself in the Maiden Hurdle Race, Smithy could not stay out the journey, and Winsome had no chance - On the question of «xperie_ce Battleaxe bis away the palm, though he was closely pressed by Tresham. The latter horse, Mars, Scottish Minstrel, Long Tom, and Kohunui were in the pink of condition. Cavaliero did not look so bright and well as he should have done, Waiwera seemed on the big side, but he gave a good exhibition in the race. Royal Conqueror looked well, but was not in public favour. Royal Conqueror jumped the wing of the first hurdle, dislodged his rider, and completely indifferent as to the result of the race immediately nibbled the grass. Meanwhile Roller and Tresham were making the running from Mars and Scottish Minstrel. Tresham, who was a strong favourite, took command running along the back and being joined by Scottish Minstrel six furlongs from home there was the prospect of a good race. However, the Clanranald gelding could not stay so well as the more seasoned Aucklunder, who, jumping beautifully all the way through, finally yon with ridiculous cis. by half a dozen length.. Mars ran well on th_ flat, and took the hurdles cleanly He beat everything else in the race almost as easily as Tresham beat him. Scottish Minstrel was fourth, a length behind Waiwera, who put in some v<-ry good work over the last half mile. Kohunui was a strong fancy all the morning, and was verywell backed. Battleaxe was never dangerous, while Long Tom and Cavaliero tan most disappointingly. Surrey shaped well, and was fifth at the finish. Roller made the pace very sound from the start, and while he could pave a sound exhibition. He failed to stay out the journey. There was never anything but Tresham so far a.s the first horse. The Catesby gelding never made the slightest mistake,* and considering that the going, though good for ji'mpers, was against fast time, put up a very creditable performance by running the two miles in 3min 55 4-sth sec. If he had bt-en pressed he might have reduced the time by more than a second. He won very easily, and gained a popular triumph judging by the applause he received' on returning to scale. Tlie Beaufort Steeplechase was an exceedingly pretty race to watch, for nearly two miles. Then a chapter of accidents quite spoilt the race. At the stand double the second time Tound The Phantom a_d Loohade fell over the first fence. Then Awahuri, who had made all the running, fell at the sod wall in the top turn. At the next fence, the post and rails, Cannongate and The Swimmer failed to get over, and so left tbe issue to Pipi, Stravbird. and | Sultana. The latter had the best stay- j ing power, and, jumping the last fence in | good style, she drew away, and won by ! half a dozen lengths from Pipi, with the I tiring iStraybird nearly twice that distance I away. Sultana's dividend, £43 17s 6d, is the biggest returned so far as the meeting has progressed. *"* The failure of Sultana to beat Shylock in on otherwise poor field .for the Enfield Steeplechase on Tuesday doubtless caused many to desert her for yesterday's race. Probably Cannongate would have won had he stood" up', for he was going well at the time of disaster. Slow Tom gained a very easy victory in the Second Hunters' Hurdle Race, for which. First Shot was regarded as the most likely candidate. The Armament gelding, however, was outpaced after travelling _lx furlongs, and thereafter Slow Tom had no difficulty an keeping ahead of Phaetontis. The Islington Handicap was almost the Winter Cup over again, for the whole of the accepbors—fifteen—took part in the race. The Shannon was looked upon as one of tbe greatest certainties of the day, and,. next to the Torpedo mare, Scotty, Fid— Battery, and the Winter Cup winner, Was where.- found the most supporters. So far as the fa, vourite was c—icerned, the race was very disappointing. When the barrier went up Tihe Shannon turned round, and when she got going the rest were half a dozen lengths in front, with Scetty -holding the lead. The St. Leger gelding was never dispossessed of his advantage, and, though at one time it seemed possible for Ai—lorff, Fleka, or Kelpy to get on terms, the Auc_ander had plenty

in reserve, and, he won comfortably," *£_4* rSfUtit mc fifth ■race of the day carried off ' by ,fhe North Island "horses, but the cup ' of the Southerners was not yet full, foe* in t-*3e last jraoe of the day the Grand Na-' tinnnl Hurdle Rfcce"-"w~nef, Tresh—ft, amiply owied the opposition. The Cateshr gelding had to put _p'» penalty of 7—■ for his National win,' bringing his weight to lOst. The add_tio__l burden made no ■difference to him, for 'he had errerj&ung beaten 4'fter a mile had been coveted. Tufto made the running from _.*_a_~aaa_ for over seven furlongs,' and when he left the lead Skotalef. and Hurrioam. showed the way for another furiong. Thereafter" I—sham took command, and won.'— he liked. Hurricane easily beat Skobsleg tor second place. .Strati—aim ,waa given a great chance in this race, but failed to gallop ia anrthing like good form after t-aveJlirng a mile. Tresham ran the mile and a half in 2nii**, 47 3-sth sec, audi —juddering that he had bsen two miles over hm rdles only two and a. hah! hours previoudy, and was meeting fresh •horse"', iaere wag much merit hi his "performance. So ended a day of god and interesting racing. Six races we-re won by 'North Island horses during the afternoon, and us Atickland had followed up Haydn's National Steeplechase . victory with a* first and mccx«_ in the National Hurdle Race, the honours have clearly . gone to the Northern province. Perhaps tne South Island division will have their turn, on Saturday. The details of the racing are as follows:— SUMNER HANDICAP (flat), of 80 soys; second 10 soys from tho stake.

The first fence,' tie kennels double, was negotiated by Zither, Brab, Doopey, Venture, and Hutana in order, Ahiki whipping in. • Tnja order was maintained over the brush fence and post and rails, Zither having by now increased his advantage to three lengths of Brab. The leader showed the way over the stand, double, which . nearly brought Hutana to .grief. 2ither was first over the fence at Cutts', but at the next obstacle Brab, by a splendid jump, almost got on terms with him. Tho pair were followed at a considerable interval by Doopey, Venture, Hutana, and Mechanic. No change took place in the order at the sod wall, or over the kennels' double, the second fence of which nearly proved fatal to tha leader's chance. Zither wbb six lengths in front of . Brab when the homo stretch was reached, and, once over tho last obstacle, had n_ttera all. his. own way, winning easily by —re'o lengths.
