CLUB'S MEETING.

ANOTHER VICTORY FOR SOLUTION Q NEW ZEALAND MARE WINS THE ' CAULFIELD STAKES. ' 1 By Telegraph.— Association.—Copyright, r. ■; ' \fc-sotjene, October 13. ™ The weather conu;?;Vns were not -favour; c able for the inauguration of the Victoria c Amateur Turf Club's meeting at Caulffc'id to-day. The morning broke showery' «d ,- continued with keen south-westerly wiivls • with glimpses of sunshine. The crowd »t the opening was small, but improved lai**.. The turf was soft and cut up badly, though the flower beds and the lawns were in good order. -r The 1010 Welter Handicap brought out a field of 22. The. race, was run in driving rain. Eleven started for the Debutant Stakes, j, Tangaroa, who was well backed, got away • j first and led all round, and won his race r i ' ip."t'"o seconds over the Caulfield record, tiit&nding fU?, h '■,". vy ?°ing. \ !

The beautiful daughter of Soult stripped in splendid condition, and it was al- < way. certain that she would be a sitrong favourite. ' The former Maoriland crack, Men- J sehikoff, who came on the scene bandaged, also claimed some attention. Solution might be said to have had her race won from the start, and she romped home in front of her 11 opponents. With only a trio of opponents to oppose Collarit in the Caulfield Guineas, the three-year-old race was summed up to bo at the J mercy of the New South Wales colt, on whose ability to win odds were laid. The unexpected, however, happened. When the barrier went up Collarit failed to jump off properly, with the result that the field was 3 ten lengths in front of him before he -com- , menced to gallop. The favourite never sue- f oeeded in getting, up, and a surprise victory ' went down to the Grafton colt Bccran. Tho • stewards held an • inquiry after the- race in ' order to ascertain how Collarit failed to j jump off. It was clearly shown tht.t the colt jumped back as the tapes flew up. arid that the jockey, Barden, was b!rm-.k>ss for what ] occurred. > , Maximise, who distinguished herself in the Spsom Handicap at Bandwick last mon'h,' ! v;as sent our. favourite for the.
