Ire stated this race Incorrectly in our paper of Saturday. It wee ran
thus

Lord Exeter's f. by Worni—Pant'ng ...... .......... I
His Royal ilighue, the Duke of Tbrk's c. by Wofol, dam by Ruben. 2
The betting opened at 6 to 4 on the Duke's, at which odds a great deal
was done; It then retrogaded to IS to 4, then to even, and finally settled
lu favour of Lord Exeter.

This was a waiting race till they had passed the bush.., when Robinson
let go the Marquis's mare, who proved, In a few *tildes, her superiority
over the Duke's, and won In a ranter. Goodison rode the loser.
On leaving the Heath a serious accident had very nearly befallen Lord
Veralam, whose horse fell, and maid over with him, but without any in-
jury beyond the shock.
• Our express arrived too late on (Friday night to enable us to offer any
thing like a review of the week's running, so as to arrive at the conclusion
of who is likely to win the Derby. The et wen Stakes led us to believe
that the Doke of Grafton's stables anti Mr. Wyndhanes could not fly,
Addy Ithe favourite) and Bolero not being placed. The next was a han-
dicap : Scandal won with some diniculty, and we think we may venture to
predict the second horse (Wadham Wyndlam's) winner of the Derby.
Scandal, last October, beat everything In a common canter (Camel, fur
instance, the present winner of the l'ort), and was never run so close
when in form before. To make this running correct, Muleteer, who In
this handicap was beat off easy, boat a field of horses on Wednesday In a
subscription plate, Pigmy being second, just as they ran in October twelve-
month ; and on Friday, still (slither to confirm the running, Rigmarole,
who was third In the handicap un Monday, and beat easily at 141 b, beats
/tandem in a canter !the latter the favourite), and afterwards, in a sub-
scription plate :the winner to be sold for Mai, was jest beat by a head by
Pigmy, who was beat easily by Muleteer. We therefore assert that Mr.
Wadham Wyndham's horse ix one of the best tried public horses In the
world. There ran be no doubt about the piece of Scandal and Muleteer.
The Itiddiesworth has left The Moslem second favourite fur the Derby, be-
cause he beats a horse ;who gives him Mb, as slow as a man injackbussts :
there la nothing in this race to confirm the pace that Is good or bad. Now
for Advance: it he could lie made to run straight he would decidedly have
a goad chance, having destroyed Rowena Norman) ala Scandsu ; but
alas ! poor Yorick, where be your jibes now I he stuck his knife In the
wall when whining in a canter with Dervise. A word to the wise;—who.
ever ride-, him at Epsom may as well make his will and settle his affairs
before starting. Bolivar .;the Duke of Rutland's; was also beat very
easy by Parapluie and Rachael ; his (Bolivar's chance, therefore, cannot
be very good. Parapluje will, from this running, be very near the Oaks.
Monarch, the first favourite, did all there was for him to do ; he beat a bad
mare but the rare neither tells for not against him. He appears a very tine
horse, with a particularly good temper, and would make a tare with a don-
key nothing in this to show the pace. The IVaterman and Rowena race
glm, Advance to have the first-rate speed. A word or two un Panic :
Hotiduca was beat very easy by Rigmarole, and Pastime, as they vulgarly
say, " wan dished to —" in the Claret. These, we presume, came as
trial nags ; but if Panic is not in better form than this, we do nut hesitate
to say that he will belong to the firm of Miss Jig, Helenas, Pastime, and
Co.--that this Panic will create almost as much consternation as a late one,
and will occasion a pretty considerabie run un the banks. Has Swiss
Guide any pretensions to a good horse I If be has, Mr. Hush's Carthago
will be one of the tirst three for the Derby. Battertly, the first favourite
for the Oaks, beat a thing that could not gallop ; and as Henries ran so
well fur the Riddleswarth, and Ariel for the handicap, where he Was beat
easy by 111 r.Wailham Wyndham's, perhaps this Butterfly Is no flyer after alt.
Should Paul Jones's running In October prove correct, his Majesty's
ought to be first favourite among the fillies.
