Boulder meeting draws to decisive stage in racing tale
The Boulder meeting progressed with only one favourite triumph, Lady Flo edging Floral to win as Durbar improves on last year’s second with Oat. An outsider, Fat BeLL0T, led early but faded. Marvolio, Melbourne Cup hero, beat Winifred by a neck as insiders claim a writ may target Clarion’s nomination dispute.

Wire-netting seizure strains New South Wales feud
The State Premier of New South Wales sent a party of mounted carts and police to seize wire-netting imported for sale to farmers. Customs had levied higher duties under the new tariff. The Collector of Customs and public clerks resisted further carting, while Premier Carruthers defends the action, triggering telegrams and strained Federation relations.
