There was a large attendance, though tlio size of the crowd.suffered by comparison with that of Saturday. His Excellency the Governor and suite arrived after the first race. Some of the fields were small, but the starters averaged ten for each race and the racing was of a Very interesting description. The total isator investments amounted to £20,439, as compared with £23,012 on tho second day of last year’s meeting. Forty-seven bookmakers' (sixteen inside and thirty--0110 outside) paid £653 10s in license foes the receipts from this source last Derby Day being £623 A start was made with tho Aliddleton Hurdle Handicap, in which eight of tho first day’s competitors were again in evidence, with Master Paul as a fresh aspirant for honours. Following his usual custom Alaster Paul rushed to the front at. the start and set a very solid pace, but his condition "avo out before the straight was reached. At this stage five of tho others were almost on terms, but Xavier easily held his opponents in tlio run home, thus compensating his owner for the bad luck experienced on the first day, when 110 fell. Coy again ran well, and Gold Bird, who also fell on tho first day, finished up strongly. Ruemae shaped in good style, but tho weight stopped him at tho finish. The Criterion Handicap attracted a field of thirteen, but tlio issue lay between Gipsy Belle and Theodore all the way, Theodore gradually overhauling his rival and winning in tho last stride. The winner, who was bred by Air H. AI. Campbell, is by Morriwee —Heavenly Twin, who is a full sister to the New Zealand Cup winner, Canteen. Theodore showed smart form as a two-year-old, on the strength of which lie was purchased by Air E. J. Watt, hut he did not race up to expectations last season, Ins solo success being gained in a sprint race at Woodville. His running yesterday, however, was attractive, as he had a good field behind him. Gipsy Belle rail out the journoy much better than appeared likely from her effort in the Stewards’ Handicap, when she stopped very quickly. Chief Locliial again ran well, but tlie only others to show up prominently were Wauchopo, Humming Bird and Bliss. Polymorphous shaped fairly, hut his stablo companion, Boanerges, gave an indifferent display, for which no excuse could be offered. Ho has now started four times at Riccartoii, and on each occasion lie has disappointed his connections, his form being a long way below what he has shown himself capable of on other courses. The Epsom High Weight Handicap, for which there were seventeen starters, served to emphasise tho merit of Dearest’s victory on the first day, as she had a comfortable will, and it is clear that she is a filly of more than ordinary merit. Morecambe, who was making his first nppealance at the meeting, rail a good race, and Obsono showed that his Stewards’ Handicap form was correct by occupying a good position all the way and finishing in third place. Swimming Belt finished very fast, and Lienspring and Perlo d’Or wore also close up. The Derby field was disappointing, only four horses going to the post. Danube, on the strength of his victories at Wanganui and Trontham. was a staunch favourite. and he looked hi perfect condition. Birkdale stripped well, and was evidently improved by his race 011 the first day. Countermine also boro a welltrained appearance, but was fretting before the race, while Tribulation was not at his best. Danube set a solid pace all tho way, but he was never far away front his opponents. Half-way down the straight, where Tribulation was in difficulties, there seemod a prospect of a good finish between the other three. A little further 011 Countermine retired, and. though Birkdale made a game light, Danube beat him comfortably. There was, however, nothing in the winner’s performance to stamp him as a colt of exceptional merit. Danube, who was bred by Mr J. B. Reid, of Elderslie, is by Martian—Neva, a half-sister to a New Zealand Cup winner, Grand Rapids, and bo wan purchased ns a yearling by Air G. D. Greenwood for 600 guineas. Last season ho won four races, including the Welcome Stakes at Ricearton and the Royal Stakes ai Ellerslie, and at the end of tlio season lie shared witli Formby the honour of being the best two-year-old colt that had raced. This season he has won each of his three races, the Wanganui Guineas and tho Wellington Champion Plato paying til© wav to yesterday’s victory. This was the first time Air Greenwood had been represented in a Derby field, and 110 can therefore claim to have had more success than falls to tho lot of many owners at. the beginning of their turf career. His trainer, R. J. Mason, is quite a veteran where Derby honours are concerned, and tho rider, H. Gray, is also no novice, as ho was on the back of last year’s winner, Elysinn. The result of yesterday’s raeo would he specially pleasing to Mr J. F. Buchanan, the owner of Alartinn, who sired Danube in his first season at the stud. When the horses returned to the weighing enclosure the blue riband was placed on the winner's neck by Lady Islington, hearty cheers for tho participants in the ceremony concluding this portion of the proceedings. There were six starters for the Juvenile Plate, which resulted in a comfortable win for Sunburnt, bis effort suggesting that his owners had good grounds for their action in invading Australia with tlio colt earlier in tile season. Sunburnt was bred by the late Air G. G. Stead, and was purchased by his present owners ns a yearling lor 175 guineas. He commenced hist season well by winning the Stepniak Stakes at Oamaru, but tin’s was his only win, though lie ran prominently in some of his later engagements as a, two-year-old. Miscount added to his record of bad luck by finishing ill second place for the fourth time since he commenced racing last month. Peirene finished third, but never looked dangerous. Madam Aladcap was galloping last over the last two furlongs, after being interfered with at tho start. The Aletropolitau Handicap, which attracted ten starters, was one of the best races of tlio meeting. Tho whole field was running in close order at the entrance to the straight, but Prim drew cut at the distance, and though the chances of several of her opponents looked bright over tlio last furlong, she won in attractive style. Tin's was Prim’s first race since she took part in the Great Autumn Handicap. She was bred by her owner, Air C. G. Dalgety, being by Pilgrim’s Progress—Nantes, a sister to Marguerite, who was a good winner in New Zealand prior to being purchased to go to India. Prim has been a- consistent performer, and she numbers a Midsummer Handicap and n Dunedin Cup among her mile and a halt successes. Kopu finished very strongly in yesterday's race, and emphasised tlie merit of his display in the New Zealand Cup. John ran n good race, and Bridge, Ingoda and Sandstream wore all showing out prominently in the closing stages of the contest.

The Tnvcll Handicap served to shov 1 what a smart galloper Culnrit is. as she made light work of her big burden, and never gave her opponents a chance. Query’s display was attractive for a first appearance, but Orton failed to run up to expectations, and he is evidently a long way below first-class. A large field of sixteen hacks took part in the Ashley Handicap. It was a good race till a furlong from home, but the Auckland horse Domino then shot out and won in convincing style. The following are tlio details of the racing
