Tho Caulfield Cup, which is one of ihc biggest, handicaps associated with Ihe Australian turf, is set down for decision to-day. The race is generally considered a hard one to win. and Solution, with the big impost of 'lst 5II). appears to have a severe task before her. However, the mare is in such great form, and i-he may be equal to the task of disposing of her opponents as easily as she has been doing in her other engagements late ly. It must be remembered, however, that no horse has carried over ijsl to victory in this event since Paris won in 1594. Posiedon, I consider, t > be the most difficult horso to beat i-i the field of 30 that is engaged, and to select three from which the winner may come, I will name Poseidon, Czarovitch or Solution. The result of the Caulfield Cup will he posted at the News Office immediately it is received. Intelligence is not eligble to start in the Trial Plate to-day at the Wellington meeting.
