commenced early. Forest Queen, who was leading, fell at

" persusion" could get him over ; Little Charley also re-
fused ; Stafford bolted on leaving the course the second
time round, and fell over the ropes ; Bourton dropped
off, after jumping the road•fence out of the low pasture,
the second time round—up to that point he had kept
close company with the leading hoises ; he pulled up
quite lame. Wanderer's performance was a practical
burlesque on his Liverpool form—from start to finish he
was out of the race.
