SECOND DAT.
Tuesday was the second day of the Race Meeting, but unfortunately the weather was dull and rainy, militating not only against the attendance but against the performances of the ponies, who found the difficulties of the course increased. Notwithstanding these adverse conditions, the gathering was decidedly successful and another good day's sport was witnessed.. As was expected, the Derby attracted considerable interest, and the win by Triumph Rose seemed to be a popular one. Appended are the results of the days' racing. :— THE JOCKEY CUP.-Value $250.
