THE RACE.

The lot were at the post punctually at 3 o'clock, but half
an hour elapsed before a start could be effected, owing
to the fractiousness of Catch'em Alive and Magnum
Bosom. The former galloped into an adjoining field before
he could be stopped, while the latter broke sway frequently,
at last completely overpowering young Woodhouse, and an
shipping him, fortunately without injury. Umpire, who
was ridden in blinkers, and was expected to show'
some " temper," was perfectly quiet. Mr. M'George!
at last got the 1M off on capital terms, but
for some time it was impossible to discern which had • de-
cided advantage, but before half-amile had been traversed
several had been tailed off. On the lot coming into sight
through the Ditch gap Hartington was apparently outpaced,
and Grlmshaw had even to whip his hone to keep up with
the others, while Helium had a clear lead, followed by
Agag, Attaman, Wingrave, &malls, and Bathilde,
Myrtle in the cents, with Balder and Umpire.
going on next, and at the head of the ruck.
were Catch'em Alive and Asteroid, the remainder,
following in straggling order. Approaching the bombes
Agag, on the far side, with Bethilde, Catch-'emAlive,
Anonym, Myrtle, Bilkstooe, and Umpire took a clear lead,
the favourite pulling double, and looking allover a winner.
On fairly reaching the bushel Agag was berates, and Myrtle
and Hartington in the centre came to the front, closely
attended by Asteroid and Umpire. Half way up
the hill Hartington and Asteroid appeared to have
the race to themselves ;• Fordham, nevertheless, urged
his horse on with the " persuaders," which the Yankee
answered somewhat spitefully. Hartington aed Myrtle
from this moment had the race between them, although
Asteroid looked formidable just previously, and little
Grimehaw waited with Hartinetoo until within a few strides'
of home, when he called on his horse, and won easily by
a length; two lengths between second and third. Umpire
was fourth, six lengths off ; Anonyms fifth, Stradella
sixth, Chore Arnie seventh, and Balham eighth. Balder
and Silkstone headed the next lot, and in the extreme rear
were Audrey and Magnum Botum. Ebony broke down,
and was dismounted before reaching the poet.
