Huntsman. Harry, Willoughby, Thomastown, Xenthus,
O'Connell, The Tattler, Auntie, Romeo, BunAndua, The ..
Poet, and Bridegroom last. After having cantered, Lord
Sefton, on his charger, marshalled them is Indian file past
the stand, sod at a quarter of an hour after the appointed
time the fag fell to an uneven start. Xi' ultatos, Bridegroom,
and Willoughby went off with the lead, but had not
ions over the pees of ploughed land before Harry joined
the trio, the four keeping close order. The Poet refused at
the first fence, and was not persuaded to go over until the
leaders bad nearly reached the tail of Beeebet,e Brook. At
the post and rail fence Thoseastown refused, and would not
be got over, when he was turned round and walked home.
At the next hoes The Tattler rained, and was
out. Hayman, on pang round the extreme flag,
went to the fore, hat did not displace Bride-
=QOM, who still held command, with Willtlilsh7. Harry,
Xanthus, Romeo, and flueitmeP well tip, seri,i, lath some
lengths in the rear. Olr entering the course Bridegroom
still led, Xanthns, Barry, and Romeo being the three next.
On charging the flight of bindles' !layman cannoned against
Willoughby, and the two came down • burster, in their fall
bringing down O'Connell, who was seriously, if not fatally
injured, his rider being carried off the course insensible.
On rounding the Canal Bridge turn for home there
appeared to be only four in the race—Bridegroom,
Romeo, Huntaman, and Harry. At the last fence
Romeo refused, and the race was then left between
Huntsman acid Bridegroom, when the former won at the
finish easily by four lengths. Romeo was persertorad with,
and finished a bed third ; Xanthos fourth, Bucephalus
fifth. Harry and Anatis walked in the two next. The
others, by fall or refusal, did not pan the port.
