NAPIER PARK MEETING BON REVE WINS PARK STEEPLECHASE, 'By Telegraph-Special Correspondent.) _. ~ . _ , Napior, Juno 22. The Napier Park -Steeiilritluise Meeting oonoluded to-day, in delightful and tpriiiirhko weather. There was u very lar"e attendance, tho totalisator handling £23,389. maltinj a total for tho meeting of i<ll '189 compared with £27,314 last, year. Backers would have nothing but Ibex in tne llecaneo Handicap, mid he touched a very short price. Namur and Enjari also carried a lot of money. The start wae u shocking one, Ibex on tin r-aiU getting all the best of it, but at the end of two furlongs Sylvasro was in front, and lie was first to turn for l\omt, with Happy Valley handy. To tli.s mtvprhc of ail Sylvnsco finished on strong, and just lasted long cnniigh to teat {lie fast-tin-ishiii'.' I'.oyal l'ark by a neck. ]!ngari was third, and the favourite next. l.onl Ainslio was first choice with backers in tho Waiohiki. Hurdles, and lying In behind tho leaders till well in the straight he came on and won by a length from an outsider in Janitor. But, for being last away in a wretched start Kahumangu would havo won comfortably. Torneo. ran a fair race, and finished just behind the placed, horses, Gold Shot and Carlyeiaa fell.

Aetrophel carried most money in thn Winter Oats, but several others were wall supported. Tavistock was first out, lint booh pave way to Whiro, the latter leading into the straight from Tavitstock, Lady Louisa, and Astronhel. In tho run home Gray, on Lady Louisa, soon settled all arguments, and won easily from llydrua, with King Chiara and Tavi stock next. The favourite had every chance to win! Bon Eeve mado lib first public appearance as a. st-coplcchascr in tho Park Btceple•ohaso, and though carrying a good load the opposition wuu very weak. The dual Derby winner, and also the Great Northern Hnrdlcs winner, eimply play«d with tho field, and. wou with something in reserve from Diavolo and Merry Jack. IToue of tho others ever had a winning chance. Yellow and Black, who won on the i rst day, had a Tory poor lot, to beat in the Hunt Olnb Steopleahaie. Deci-ey took him to the front at the start, and remained there throughout, • winning very easily. The All Black geldincr is the best or the hunters seen out this -season.

Kauri King waß the best backed of t,ho oeven runnors in the Poraitc Hnrdles. Oaetalia was early iu the lead, hut she did not get far away, and three tiirlonirn from home Kauri King co.ug.hl her. The favourite t-hen drew nway, and though Art sent out a strong challenge Kauri King won well by a noclc. Banian broke a fetlock aftor going two furlongs, and Almo, who was sore, was a long way haclt. The meeting clesed with, tho Newetead ITaek Handicap, which proved a, great betting race, and nuded iu a, flniah, Wapping just getting up in time to beat Retard, who \va.» only a. head in front of TJthvai and Cross Words. Retard and ITaßtip carried tho moßt money, but while Retard ran well ]J-astie waa never dangerous.
