Later.
The Governor arrived about 12.30. The weather is beautiful. Twice as many people and vehicles on the ground as yesterday. Mclvor, who fell, was stunned, and is not seriously injured. The Latest. The Ctn? was a wonderfully good race, a hot pace being kept up from start to finish, Lara jumping away with a lead after several false starts, and keeping it throughout, though very hard pushed by Trump Card and Olupai. Tremendous excitement when the horses entered the straight, deafening cries of " Lara " being raised. Eight started, Lara won by about a length, Trump Card 2, Otupai 3; but with so little difference between them there was much uncertainty aa to place. Time —3 minutes 44 seconds and onetenth.
