Rose Hall, who has been on the sick list for a long time, dis tinguished himself by running away with the handicap event for "B Class contenders. Närá Stag proved his superiority over the rest of the field by beating such good per formers as Fifty Fifty, Tarmacadam and O'Moon, who were, until re; cently, at the bottom of our “A
performers. Tarmacadam secured third place, two lengths in rear of the second pony.

The Champion Stakes over a distanco of 1 miles provided the tit bit of the meeting and resulted in a very popular win for. Mrs. L. Dunbar's Sitting Bull.
An enormous crowd of sportsmen and their ladies gathered at the gate lending from the saddling enclosure to congratulate one of the most popular and sporting lady owners in the Colony, who in two seasons of racing has succeeded in winning both the Derby and Champions with her beautiful and breedy looking candidate Sitting Bull.
THE GOVERNOR'S CUP.
The Governor's Cup, which bad been won by Elliot Bay on the first day, was handed to Mr. L Dunbar by His Excellency the Governor (Sir Cecil Clementi, E.C.M.G.) who expressed the great pleasure it afforded him to make the presentation to such a keen fallower of the turf as Mr. Dunbar had proved himself.
!!
Then Mr. C. G. S. Gordon Mackie, the Clerk of the Course, introduced Mr. A, J. P. Heard to Miss Jean Mackie who thereupon -handed Mr. Mackie a purse of sovereigns, which had been subscrib
ed by the ladies of the Colony, and congratulated Mr. Heard for his meritorious win on Christmas Chimes.
Mr. Heard suitably replied, and presented Miss Mackie with a bouquet of flowers tied with the Club's colours, called for three cheers for the ladies of the Colony and then escorted Miss Mackie to tiffin
One of our young Chinese novice riders Ead a most unpleasant experience when his mount Charleston" bolted, smashed through the rails of the course and threw his rider into the ditch which separates the two courses.
Mr. Ip Kui Ying was very fortunate as his position was most precarious owing to the fact that his foot was caught in the stirrup. He freed himself. however, and as his mount returned to the stable He did not take part in the race.
¿
An objection was lodged by one of the Shanghai riders against Mr. A. F. Clark for crossing and after an enquiry the objection was upheld and Jamaica, Mr. Clark's mount, was disqualified and the race was awarded to the second pony.
THE RACING
The Foochow Cup, a two-mile event, which was the first, race of the dar, was rather a tame affair owing to the superiority of two of the en. trants who, as soon as the race com- menced, shot off and left the rest of the fold far behind. Coos Bay the heavily backed favourite succeeded in winning as he liked and Town Hall had no difficulty in filling second berth. The two last ponies were just coming into the straight when the winner was passing the judge's box.
The Sun who was ridden by Mr. Hill, the: Shanghni' “cruck" rider, disappointed and his failure must be attributed to his dislike of the sloppy going.
The American Cup.. The Dynasty stable's contender, King's Courier, ridden by Mr. Victor Haimovitch in excellent fashion, broke the owner's sequence. of seconds by winning easily in a field of six. The win was the fourth for the stable and was most po pular.
The Consolation Stakes, Misty Eve, who was a very hot. favourite for this event, won with three-quarters of a length to spare from City Hall, who kept Peck away in third place by a further two lengths. One Third. disappointed and was out of the race, from the start. The rest of the runners were badly outclassed.

The N Desperandum Siaken. Flying Stag upset the pot by beat- ing Ficcy, the fancied candidate, in the last race. Cream Cracker who was backed like a certainty found strong support but could only fill third place. This event was held up for a long time owing to the capers of Charleston, who had dislodged his rider and continued to sprint up and down amongst the starters until he was finally hunted
from the course.
The winner paid the handsome dividend of $38 for a win and $11.60 for a place.
