OUTSIDER’S WIN

Cambridgeshire Stakes BOOKMAKERS JUBILANT By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright. London, Oct. 26. Ou the first day of the Newmarket Second ' October meeting, the following was the result of the CAMBRIDGESHIRE STAKES, a handicap sweepstake with .1000 sovs. added; second 30(1 sovs.. third WO sovs. Now Cambridgeshire course. One mile and one furlong. Mrs. C. B. Robinson's br. f. PULLOVER, by Twelve Pointer—Pelisse, 3yrs., 6.11 1 Lord Glanely’s b. f. ADA DEAR, by Grand Parade—Skyglory, 3yrs., 7.12 ~ Sir Vidor Sassoon’s b. <•. PHARAOH 111, by Pharos—Flux, 3yrs., 6.8 3 Thirty-three started. Three-quarters of a length; half-a length. It is years since 100 to 1. chances have conic home first, and third in an important handicap, but they did in to-day’s Cambridgeshire Stakes. The bookmakers had the time of their lives. Scarcely a hacker found the winner, though one lucky man named two horses (including the winner) in a special totalisutor pool, and won £1773 for an outlay of 10/-. Pullover was entered only because a brother and sister had a friendly bet whether Pal o’ Mine, who is owned by Sir Edward Tate, or Pullover, who is owned by his sister.- Mrs. C. B, Robinson, was the better at the weights. Apart from the fariiily wager. Mrs. Robinson had only £2 on Pullover. The success of Pullover smashed thousands in the double event wagers on the Cesarewitch and the Cambridgeshire.’

WAIKATO HUNT CUP

Trouble’s Win Very Popular

“I would sooner win a hunt cup than a Grand National,” said Mr. K. MeK.. Duncan, of Hunterville, after the presentation of the silver cup won by his hunter Trouble at the AVaikato Hunt meeting at Cambridge on Monday. Mr. AA’ynn Brown, master of the AVaikato hounds, in handing the cup to Mr. Duncan, re--called the fact, that last year’s winner. Billy Boy, had this year gone on to achieve high Honours as a jumper, having won the AVellington Steeplechase at Trentham, and thp Grand National Steeplechase at Ricearton; _■ Trouble now has the following consistent record in hunt, cup events this year:—July, won Rangitikei Hunt Cup at Marton; August, second in Pakurauga Hunt Cup at. Ellerslie, and second in Taranaki Hint Cup at N.cw Plymouth; September, won Manawatu Hunt Cup at Awapuni: October, won AVaikato Hunt Cup at Cambridge. The owner, Mr. Duncan, is a member of a notable racing family, and is a keen hunting enthusiast. He is also' a leading amateur horseman, and in the last few months has won several races. On Monday he rode Abbey Dream into third place in the Ladies’ Bracelet. Trouble was installed a good favourite for the AVaikato Hunt Cup and lie duly scored, winning very easily at the finish. Cat-i-mes and Slump attended to the pace-making for thp first two miles, when Cat-i-mcs lost, her rider at the double. Simeon, Jen and Trouble then came prominently into the picture and they were just behind Slump with justover six furlongs to go. Simeon spoilt his chance'by a faulty jump t which nearly brought him down at tfie first fence along the back, and. then Jen and Trouble weut to the lead. Trouble held the up-, per. hand before reaching the straight, and came right, away. .Ten tired bad.lv at. the end, but there was nothing behind him with an effort loft, and he hung on for second, although Slump almost wrested the position from him in the straight. N.Z. CUP REHANDICAP Historic and Fast Passage Fast Passage won £250 in the Pearce Handicap on Monday, and under the conditions of the New Zealand Cup she is liable to rehandieap, her present weight being 8.0. The time limit expired yesterday at 3 p.m.. up to which time there was no appearance of her extra weight. It is possible of course that it has been lodged with the C.J.C. It will be surprising if Fast Passage escapes a penalty, especially' in view of the fact that Historic, for his Sydney win, was raised from 9.1 to 9.4. FAILED AT TRENTHAM Did Not Like the Going P. McGrath, who is in charge of Mr. J. M. Samson’s team at AVingatui, during the absence of C. Gieseler in Australia, brought the two-year-olds Guarantee and Southdown to Trentham for the recent meeting. They were started in the AVellesley Stakes on Saturday, but neither of them raced up to expectations. The soft ground did not suit them, and as the track was much worse on Monday they were scratched. McGrath, who has returned Io AVingatui from Trentham, will go to the Canterbury Jockey Club’s meeting next, mouth, whim Southdown and Guaraulee will again Be in action, with Blue Hills and Colonel Cygnus as their mates. Colonel Cygnus has been on the easy list lately, as he was sore after n race at the Dunedin meeting, but lie may race well at Rieeartou, especially if the ground is at all soft.
