HOBART, March 30. Chatspa, the hottest favourite in the history of the King’s Cup, had no trouble in winning the race yesterday from Sunhaven, with Evade a close third. The winner was knocked back at the seven furlongs, but took charge from Evade on entering the straight and strode well away. Previously he almost fell when he hit the heels of another horse. KING’S CUP. CHATSPA, 8.13 (Bougoure) 1; SUNHAVEN. 7.4 (Unkovich) 2; EVADE, 7.4 (Hughes) 3. Twelve started. Two and a-hali lengths; half a head. Time, 2.333.
