' SECOND DAY. CADONIA WINS THE SYDNEY CUP. BHRAGOON BEATEN AGAIN. TWO "NEW ZEALAND VICTORIES. By Telesraph—Prcaa Association—Copyright - -'{Ee6. Marih 24,' 7.30 p.m.) Sydney, March 24. , There was splendid weatiier.lor the second day of the Australian Jockey Club's autumn meeting, and Eandwick was peopled by an cnorr.ious crowd. New sealand .opened tho i>roceedings by annexing theTiyirijj Handicap by tho agency of Mr. G. D. Greenwood's Valido. The winner,' who "started third favourite :got away with tho leaders, and raii the distance out .well. .lie had started .twice previously, running fairly-well on each occasion. The Runtlwick. trainer, J. Burton, prepared.Mr..G'.ree;nvood's horse. .

Now Zealand was again to tho fore in the Champagne' Stakes./ In this race -Bcraybon. was ex.pected to roverso positions with Radnor (winner of " the 1 Sires' Produce. Stakes), :.Qis the'.latter-had to carry. a penalty, while the former was reckoned tj ha.vai been improved by Saturday's race. Mr. J3: ,J. ,\\'atfs Athenic, however, began quickly as usual, and led throughout. Bq ragoon was. again slow to get away, -anc!:- recovered 'his • lost ground. Ho finished—with Dakai and Maibrook-rcloso; behind Radnor. Athenio has" proved a.better stayer than was anticipated earlier in the season'. Two withdrawals left twenty-seven horses to •so to j;he post for tho Sydney Cup. .Hallowmas vas a strong favourite. A. surprise) -was in store, however, for Cadonia, who h&s recently 'been running moro geiusrously. for J. S. Macdonald than for otlier riders, chose to show his staying powers, and won all out'by a.length. Cagou's axond. was also a surprise, alter his beatiiig by.Barios on. Saturday, in the Leger. The favourite was never prominent, and, finished in the ruck after ,i bad •passage.. • l.'osinatus ran an unexpectedly good race, leading all the way to the distance. ' ■ Sir Lethe ,'was favourite; in the Steeplechase/ but could only : fill second place. The Miser,'; although penalised 101b. for his victory in' tho hurdles on Saturday', still had a substantial advantage over the' New-Zealand horse, and'this enabled him to come' away on enterihg tliQ straight and win easilj. Andelosia, wSo. was third in the Sires' Produce Stakes on Saturday, repeated the good gallop hie showed on that occasion, beating, ten other youngsters to whom ho was conceding, from twclvo pounds -upwards.,;' •' Tho istarters ip tho Tocal Handicap included Seatondale, who ran well, finishing close up fourth. The winner, N.S.W., was near, the front .throughout. " An: interesting fact connectetl with tho Doncaster Hajwlicap" and Sydney Cup double is that Jolly Beggar and Cadonia, tho winners, ran second recently in the Newmarket Handicap and Australian Cup •respectively at tho V.R.C. meeting.
