In winning the first division of the Caulfield Cup at Flemington today, the rank outsider, St. Warden, caused the greatest surprise in the long history of the race.

St. Warden was bred in New Zealand. Results: — Caulfield Cup, one mile and a half — First Division: St. Warden, by Lord Warden—Halo, 7.3 (H. White) 1; Heart’s Desire, 7.8 (Preston) 2; Simmering, 7.5 (Unkovitch) 3. Twenty-two started. Three-quarters of a length; half head. Time, 2.30 4-5. Second Division. —Skipton, 9.2 (A. Breasley) 1; Amana, 2; Centenary', 3. Time, 2.301. (St. Warden, winner of the first division of the Caulfield Cup, was bred at the Gladstone Park Stud by the late Mr G. A. Kain and was sold as a yearling at the Trentham sales in 1938 for 325gns to Mr U. Shannon on behalf of an Australian client). At the Randwick races on Saturday the Metropolitan Handicap was won by Main Topic (last year’s A.J.C. Derby winner) with Moorland second and Eureka third.
