STEEPLECHASE GOES TO WHIRR. PRUDENT PRINCE SALUTES JUDGE. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) DUNEDIN, May 31. Though weather conditions were rather unfavourable for the opening day of the Dunedin winter meeting, the gate was larger than last year. It was a disastrous day for punters, as favourites failed badly. The weather was dull, and a cold wind swept the course. The track was heavy. The totalisator handled £21,105 10s, against £16,863 last years. Results: — Tahuna Hack and Hunters’ Steeplechase, about 2.1 m: 6/5 Astral Flame, 9.11 (T. J. Boyle) 1; 5/5 Panara, 9.12 (A.
