Whimper did > not jump well on the previous day, but scored a comfortable win to-day from Eiya. Serenity, the first day's winner, just beaten, out of a Slace. Whimper is now owned by xho nils'owner-trainer W. Homosi who also won the Telephone Hack-Handicap with Eminent. The latter had little to spare from Alecto. Lady Moutoa was expected to win the big race. She got out well and ran prominently, but the light-weighted-Matlow practically led throughout. Manawakaha, runner-up in the Cup, just bent Lady Moutoa for second. . • The Wairarapa-owned Operation—runner:up to Portraiture in the Maiden—was beaten in the Scurry by Artificial; a grey gelding by The Artist, ridden by. M. Hehir, who used to race Hinlitangi. Three of the later events were won by horses unplaced earlier in tho ' day. Vladinoy (Vladimir—Noyeau) scored in tho Carnarvon Hack Welter. The Blen-heim-bwned Ruapara (ridden by M'Cnrten) 'scored a comfortable win in the January Hack Handicap. There was heavy, speculation in the Moutoa Welter, which went to Muleteer.
