SYDNEY, April 20.

The A.J.C. Autumn Meeting opened at Kandwick yesterday in dull but fine weather. The attendance was 50,000, and the track was in splendid' order. • Clangor fell *passing the stands in the hurdles. The AuMniri Plate provided a stirring contest between Peter Pan and Rogilla. The latter secured a head advantage at the half-distance, but Peter Pan,, finishing with more determination, gained the upper hand in the final strides. The New Zealander Gold Trail ran a splendid race and, will be unlucky if she goes home without securing prize-money. ; Legatee finished well to gain third money in tlie Sires' Produce Stakes. Parquet failed to show up. ■ Winooka finished his racing career. During the running of the Doncaster Handicap the former champion had his off-side hind tendon severed. . Sylvandale won the St. Leger in effortless style. He ran to the front at the 'barrier rise and was not afterwards troubled. The colt has excellent prospects for .success in the Sydney Cup on Monday./ Results are: — ; ' FIRST HURDLE KACE, £350; about 2 miles.
