I'ap was- won'comfoVlably by Flowing Bowl, who ran a good eeeoiid to OliincAvairua on tho first day. .Formaline slfllt ■ cut from bunch, in the straight, but ■the winner held him ouite : safe.- : The Borough Handicap resolved itself from tho'start into a race between Lightning, end Bellacity, the latter (retting the verdict by a head. Queen Abbey did not get «way with her usual eniartiic.-e. The ■ Ponui Hurdles was won by Golden Graf- . ton, who fell on tho first :day. Tho favourite, Notability, lead for the greater 0 part of tho distance. ' Golden Graflou put in her challenge about half a mile 'from homo and her superior pace made it evident that Ghe had only to Maml up ' to win. Once over the last hurdle she. 'caifte away and wen very decisively. The ■ 'Alison Cup furnished an exciting finish. Tinopai, the favourite, went to the front, but soon eased up a little. When j the field settled down to serious business )All Talk moved into second place and Tinopai -moved ui> once mere. Half a ' .milo from home. Form Up began to make •'his effort. Entering tho straight/Tinoi'pai had a clear le;ul, with All Talk sec- , ond and Form Up coining -through rajiidly. .When well Into.tho straight All Talk found tho pace too severe and- had !to give way Ip Form Up, who just.failed to catch Tinopai. Tho favourite was, however, still going strong. Athene. II flnjl Tobasco lost their rid<-rs. : The Cain.bria Handicap-.was won comfortably by 'Mistress Biddy, who occupied, a (tooil portion.from.start to finish. Caballero ■and Independence-shot out together in ;the A r (inxhall .Jlaiidican and kept company till tho turn for homo when Hine- . amaru moved .up and soon took coni- , , mand. • Independenco faded away -nnd , Step succeeded in beating G'aballoro for ' 6econd place. Loyal Arch, Otter, Thrace, ■ and Tenacious were the only starters in the Tiri Hurdles.' Otter made the running for about a. hiile.--.T.lren Tenacious and Loyal Arch took command. Thrace now moved up at a great pace and enttins, down the other' two won a good rade■.with .something to spare.'".'..Loyal Arch's jujiiDin? was not up to expectations. Bedford, Downham, Koreone.Stilts, nnd Kinpr Aljbpy were all well hacked in. the .Cheltenham Handicap. Downham was favourite. "When tho field settled down King Abbey was the first to chow out. Downham was handy, and Bedford was last. • .Nearinsj the straightStilts moved, ut) imdyßedford, began" to eo through the field.' Goiiig on confidentBedford scored a decisive win from Stilts.'
