DUNEDIN J.C. AUTUMN MEETING. (PRESS association.) Dunedin, February 22. Notwithstanding the lugubrious prognostications of the weather prophets ih® Dunedin Jockey Club were favoured with beautiful weather for the first day of their Autumn Meeting. Tbe attendance was not up to the best record, but it was very large, and ladies mustered largely to display their Cup dresses. Representatives were present from nearly every pare of the Colony, while many were from Australia. "Mr S. Powell officiate! as starter with his usual efficiency, and Mr W. Miller was judge. The Cup race was a • boll over;' it was in most respects a repetition of Occident’s victory lant year, as Tempest made her own running all the way. and was never really headed. Thame might have had more to say but for the accidental breaking away of a stirrup leather when entering the straight. Ic is understood that Mr Stephenson did not have a penny on his mare except in a double with Huguenot. Mr Hazlett, his partner, had LI, and the trainer LI. In the Selling Two-year-old, Buddicombe, who rode Viscount the winner, tailed to draw the weight, and a protest was entered, which will be considered to-night. The amount put through the machine was LB9IB, as against L10,95S on the same day last year. Results
