The going was very holding, and a large Jiumber of the winrers .tailed to show.' their best form. Obligant won the big race in a very.stylish.manner, and that after covering more ground than anything in the race. • Supporters rf Semaphore .received a good dividend when ..the Wellington mare wonthe Hack Race. ■'.''.• ■.'.■'" Prior to tho Open Hurdles the stewards had all the tfders before them and warned them that a sharp look-out- would be kept for any non-triers. .' ','".'■ The only untoward incident of the day was the disqualification of the Open Hurdles winner for interfering with Cornelian.- . • .-■'.'• The finish of the Welter Hack Race was .the best of the meeting, tho whole field being in. a cluster. Of the five-runners in the York Stakes Crown. Pearl (A. Oliver) was accorded most support, whilo- Labour Day, who had Deeley in the saddle, was heavily Bupported. The start was a good one. Peroneal being the first to become prominent. She was soon, joined by Piriwai, and they led Crown Pearl to the straight, when Lady Volga, and Labour Day also joined'in. The whole field had a chance a furlong from homeland in a good finish Deeley got his mount home by a head froiii Lady- Volga, with Crown Pearl just j clear of Piriwai. The Dodger was the best-backed of the Hack field, but Wβ- chance was early extinguished by getting chopped out . soon after tho start. Bo ran up to. the field at tho bottom of the straiglit, but could not sustain his run, and finished out of r. place. Eocene, Kina, and Lady Louisa were the.leaders till, the straight entrance, where Sema- . phoro'came through and quickly put the issue .beyond doubt. Eocene battled it out well,-but had to give way to Suratura, who was more fortunate than on the first day. . '. '. . I Imagination and Patriotic set , a very! merry pace in the Manchester Handicap, and .tins soon found a weak spot in sov- '

era! of the runners. • At the half-mile Obligant moved up to the leaders, and Imagination dropped back. A. furlong furtner, Obiiganc nad snnKen off Patriotic. At the straight entrance Menttip and Ceylon 'appeared, but though uotn were ridden out, they could not reach trie 'JJrantham colt, who won nicely. Sir Solo, jN'gatimaru, and Patriotic were tiie next to finish, while Bonny Boy whipped in tlio. Held. ' ' .

Leolanter and Windage made the pace solid in ' the Cheltenham Hurdles, and this contributed largely to the defeat of tae favourite, Silver Uuse, wlioso correct /w-eigJit was list; Sib., and not list. 51b., as telegraphed in the acceptances, lioran, wlio had been •in a handy 'position .throughout, ran to the ironc lour'-furlongs H'oin home. At tho last fenco Cornelian jumped it just behind Koran, and the latter then came on to the fence, causing Cornelian, to slop. Tne Wave'rley horse then went on, and won easily. The crowd/took up tne case, and hooted vigorously as the horses returned.to the paddock. The stewards immediately met, and after an hour's deliberation awarded the race to Cornelian, and placed-Silver Cluse second. Chief Marshal, Timothy, and Moahau each received solid support in tho Hack Hurdles. Timothy ana Sunrose made tho running till the iive-turlong post, when il-oahau took charge, and led till they were approaching the/last fence, where Chief.Marshal collared him, and went on to win by four lengths. Elmgot was jusi clear of Rendrock, who was the outsider of the field. At the last fence Timothy camo down, but F. Meagher escaped witu a shaking. ■ ~ Tetikura'was a slightly hotter favourite than Moutca Girl in the Welter Handicap and he won after a sptenaid struggle. .Royal.Simon led with tne favourite till the bottom of the course, where Mallard, Moutoa Girl, and several others joined in. A great finish saw Tetikura prevail from Allure, with Mallard a head in front of Moutoa Girl. ' . For the Scarry Hack,another large field faced' the starter, but most of them were very moderate. Divinia, as usual, was. very unruly-at the post, and delayed the j start some time. She cleared out the opposite way, and she and Elsie were eventually left altogether, and took no part in the race. 'A good start saw Sylvia May jump out in front, with Hamurana and Awahou next, with the rest strung out. Sylvia May maintained the lead, until well into.the straight, where Awahou,.ran to the front, and, being kicked rigfit Out, won by ; three' lengths, with Sylvia May two lengths bohiad Hamurana. The last to finish were Neirene, Waitdki, and Jess. ' ■ ' ..,-.' Matlow was in strong demand for the Railway Welter. When the tapes were raleased' King Try hopped smartly out in front,, followed by Con the Shaughraun and Loch Mabin. The last-named assumed command half a mile from home, and looked all ..over a winner, when. Royal Marine slipped up on the inside and scored a long overdue win by half a length. Con the- Shaughraun was closs up third, with Matlow next. .
