Opinion of High Caste. “I do not think High Caste is the horse he was. One would have expected him to win a race like the Clarendon Stakes more easily than he did,” stated Trainer J. T. Jamieson (formerly of Masterton) to a representative of the Sydney Sunday Telegraph at Rosehill. High Caste won by half a length from Buzalong. Many considered High Caste was allowed to take it easily when E. Bartie judged he had the race won. High Caste is second favourite to Beaulivre for the Epsom Handicap, which is to be run at Randwick on Saturday, ahead of Mildura. Reading, Rex Felt and Katanga. For the Metropolitan Handicap, run next Monday, Beau Vite leads the market from Reading, Gundadai and Landlaw. RACING FIXTURES Oct. 3, s—Hawke’s Bay. Oct. 10, 12—Dunedin. Oct. 12—Otaki Maori.
