NOTES ON THE EVENTS. [r- TELEGRAPH—SPECIAL TO THE' STAI!.' 1 CHRISTCHURCH. March 29. For the second day of the C..LC. autumn meeting the weather was inclined to ho more kind, though the sky was overcast and there wir at least a (fiance of rain. However, a fairly large gathering journeyed out to Riccarton and the day’s sport opened well enough. • ■ W There were five startoro in the Kindle Race, arid southern’ Cfoiti ahH ■ Whataknra made a groat finish. The former jhst lasted long enough to, shake off a strong challenge front the distance. . NOva, who- had ’•ecu scratched at the last minute yesterday as her jockey could not find the skull cap, which was compulsory' in inmpinj; races, ran into third place. A field of eight wont o,nt far. the Autumn Nursery Handicap. On Champagne Stakes’ rnnning,'Eoi-fnlcss, in spite of her weight, looked likely, to he hard tie) -it, but the public made it slightly better favorite of Greenwood’s nair—-Danube and Acrostic. Tim-latter, % JujJf-brpUiQr hi Multiform to blol|tioh— xQp uptcrininp, win next in demand.

Rii^ : qvf"sßd;;|h| tosoritej weft prominent alp the- way; and-another flip! face sawjth| Rvyprite gQtßpmo with ROSS Noble, jus. W iM.&lt,irolßwond plac|. Lnperin ran a (rood race, but Sir Frisdp gdt away at the back of the field and never' carried his RTg weight’’ into ’pfdfKTilenee. Tlia stewards met after the race and fined Donovan, the rider of Gold Braid,

£lO on the ground that he had not tried to get away. The. next’ race was the Great Autumn Handicap, and the fourteen final aocep-<. tors were all saddled up. Oiyoi, Pi im and Gold Lace looked tho cream of the field us they paraded; but it was generally conceded that the field was one of the best that has contested the big mile and a-half race. The presence of an unusually large □portion _ of, visiting horses made the race especially interesting. Public, fancy. , was divided pretty, evenly between the Stewards Handicap, twlnner, Gold Lace; and Diabolo, who was a better looking horse than when he raced here in the spring.- Oiyoi, who had been much talked' of after his Dunedin successes and made

favorite in straight-out betting, was the ;hird selection on tho tote, with Prim and [ngoda next. The race was another remarkably fine one, Bridge pushing Outlander to a neck in a great finish. The Finland gelding had been doing good work on the tracks and ho did quite all that his best friends expected of him. He led for a mile at a sound pace and, though lie gave place to Tikitero at the half-mile post, he tigaiti took charge below the distance and finished up his big task in splendid stylo. Coining on top ol yesterday’s running, Bridge’s performance proved' his staying powers and his ability to .allop, etc. Tho big son of Scold a looks likely to see a longer journey out in good style. Oiyoi carried his big weight grandly. He was in the rear most of the way and the run from the top of (be straight that took him into third place was a great effort. Gold Lace was never prominent, but Diabolo maintained a good position all the way and finished fourth, while Prim also ran creditably, but In goda’s display was disappointing. °ln the Addington Plate the Choke-bore pair, Fasnakyle and Windrnsh, were backed down'to the shortest price of the meeting, and tho former made no mistake about landing the dividend. Tho Seer was

second choice, and ho again got away

well, but did not see the race out as well as he had done on the previous day. though it must be admitted that lie appeared to be not quite so vigorously ridden as lie might have been. The field for tho Eighteenth Challenge Stakes fined down to five. Forniby. Madam Madcap and Crown Derby being be two-year-old division, while Broad sword was the cnlv three-year-old. and Armlet completed the mtinioUc. making iior first appearance at Die meeting. As was to be expected, after her victory m the Champagne Stakes, Madam Madcap, with whom, m course, llroadswoid \\a> coupled, was made a good favorite, carry, i-vg a hundred and fifty nonmls more (liar Armlet. So far as the two-year-olds wore concerned the race was a-'iin rather mysti fving owing to Formbv beating Madam Madcap. The colt from Hawkes Bay made the pace a cracker, but Madam Madcap was at him all the way. while \rmlet. who had got off badly, was mak j,i,g up her ground* Probably rather u-i "mull use was made of the daughter ol Mmlola, hut it is difficult to say whethei l-’oimbv would not have carried 100 mmi cue for her in tho last furlong if she hae not, hunted him along so vigorously. Both the two-vear-olds had the worst of tin lin k at the top of the straight, ploughing through a muddy patch, while Armlet

nine on the outside of it. ’ll' l ' Aim ill: - marc, however, pul in a great nm and ope a red to have no dithenltv in winning, oulinning her claim to he a champion, '■'ornihy ran as came a race as he did at Wanganui, and if Madam Madcap is minted the champion two year old of the season, it must he conceded that the ilirkenhead Oladiolii colt is not a long way behind her. ,\ round dozen wore saddled up for the Templeton Handicap, for which Penates was made a good favorite. Kilindini and t’.oanerges. who were expected o> imjirovo mi their yesterdav’s form, being next in demand, with Flitaway also well sup oorted. Queen of Spades led the field into it’, straight at a merrv pace, and then ave way to Pcmates who looked like repeating his great Easter running, in spite . i Ids thumping burden, hut inside the •Mstanee Flfort came with a great run and ■ 1 1 ic* (op-weight home. The winm-r had not altogether nleasod the track ct.-liers since her arrival, and she run a cinch better race than in the (Treat Faster. I'nte confirmed her recent Waimate foim . fini-liing close up fourth and Ivihudo - was next. Penates was well handled by I! 11 , ti. who had idreadv ridden MriPeenwi.oil’s three winners during the day. The Final Handicap produced just . hunt 1 !■ o best race of the meeting. Ihuilade was :i; ; . ,m!v one of the ten starters who did ml get a wav well, and when the straight was reached anything had a chance. A .peat race from the distance ended in ? ivcl.nn, Kilwinning, Cronstadt and ’ bite Cockade passim- the post together. 1 they were placed in that order with heads separating them. Kilwinning, who was a hot favorite, “finished almost mulct the judge's box. and a rent many people were of the opinion that he won, Give lorn is an English bred three-year-old, hv ;•!!ini. out of Hebrew Maid. She was imcited hv Mr J. F. Buchanan for breeding pm (loses, hut she should earn her owner something in stakes I.efore he retires her to the rtud. Of the jockeys engaged at the meeting ’> Hatch was most successful. riding lour winners. 11. Cairns. F. E. Jones, W. Hvan and C. Emerson each rode two winners. C. Jenkins. H. Honov.iii. E. Redtumid and A. Chapman each got home iiii-e. \V. Holmes had the had hick to ride into seiond place four times and Jenkins was twice in second place.
