$ ■ ROYAL SCOTCH’S .VICTORY. United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph. —Copyright. Melbourne, October 1-1. The victory of Royal Scotch, piloted by the New Zealand jockey, A. Oliver, shares with the failure of Lady Medallist, the principal comment on Saturday’s racing. On the previous Saturday, Royal Scotch was only eighth among twelve runners. He started for'the Caulfield Stakes friendless, the race being regarded as a match between Lady Medallist and the imported End or us. Lady Medallist was most disappointing. She dropped back beaten after a clear run, finishing sixth. Royal Scotch has evidently vastly improved, and promises to he well'for the Oup, though previous New Zealand Caulfield Stakes successes were followed by Cup failures —notably Pink ’Un, eighth in the Oup, and Artillerie sjxth. •Sydney, October 15.
