ANALYSIS OF THE SEVENTY-THIRD DERBY.
(Continued from Note No. CLXIII.)

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—In the last note I gave ray opinion of Scott's,
Cooper's, and Sam:glees Derby Lots ; I shall now pro-
ceed in my dissection of the merits of those animals in
the other leading stables that are engaged in this great
stake. Before I do so, however, I must correct a mis-

take that got, somehow or other, into my remarks on
Cooper's lot. I stated that the Chief Baron Nicholson
and Kingston ran a dead heat for the Triennial Stakes
at Stockbridge, and that that performance stamped them
as much on a par; of the two I was inclined to give the
preference to Kingston for the Derby Course; it should
have been the Csief Baron that I gave the preference
to, as Kingston, in my judgment, at present, is but a mile
horse, no matter what ho may eventually turn out to be
in his fourth or fifth year. The lot in importance next
to those I have already mentioned is
JOHN DAY'S,
which consists of seven animals of every description,
good, bad, and indifferent; five of them have already ap-
peared in the market, and at various times been stiffly
supported by the public more than by the partisans of
the stable. Of these Filius, Vortex, and Little Harry,
have had the greatest amount of the circulating medium
lavished upon their chances. The great gun, however,
seems to be Mr. Stirling Davidson's nomination,
VORTEX, abr c by Voltaire, out of Martha Lynn; he
is, as will be seen, full brother to Voltigeur, and has
lately been shifted from the care of J. Dawson, of Mid-
dleham Moor, to the great stable of the south. He has
appeared in public but twice, running in anything bat a
satisfactory manner either time. At Doncaster was not
placed for the Champagne Stakes, won by Augur, Daniel
O'Rourke (second), and Bay Rosalind (third). Bird-on-
the-wing and Homebre wed were also before Vortex. In his
second essay, two days after, for a T.Y.C.Sweepstakes,
he was beaten by Alfred the Great and Lady Harriet.
This running of his must not be taken as any criterion
of what the horse can do, as he was by no manner of
means in the best form imaginable on either of those
occasions; moreover, he is to my eye much more highly
gifted with staying powers than with those of speed;
notwithstanding I am convinced that he is no Voltigeur,
and in my opinion stands but a moderate chance. He is
in good form, and under the superior training of John
Day will be as near the mark on the day as it will be
possible to make him. Sir Robert Pigot has a couple,
both in the hetting, in Filius and Father Themes, the
latter gaining the most support at the hands of the
Ring. Emus, a b c by Venison, out of Birth-
day, at Goodwood, accomplished his best per-
formance, winning a 200 Boys. Stakes, beating
Houlakin, Herschel, and Claverhouse, the last named be
it remembered having been run off his legs in his pre-
vious race at this meeting. Filius afterwards ran fourth
to Maidstone for the Prendergast Stakes. At an out-
side figure throughout the winter this horse has been
backed for large sums, but all of which, if I err not, is
gone into the sinking fund.
Sir R. Pigot's other nag, FATHER THAMES, a ch c by
Faugh-a-Ballagh, dam by Bran, out of Active, was not
placed at Goodwood for the Ham Stakes, won by Cla-
verhouse; and in the Newmarket Second October Meet-
ing was not good enough to beat Scarecrow for a 200
Soya. Stakes, consequently his chance may be set down
as perfectly hopeless, he having of late given but few
signs of improvement. Sir R. Pip! will not sweep the
Derby of 1852.
Mr. Josiah ArCOla'S LITTLE HARRY, a b c by Epirus,
out of Fraudulent, ran third to Adine for the Weston
Stakes at Bath, and at Newmarket was a moderate se-
cond to Ravenswing for a 50 Sovs. Plate, finishing his two
years old performances by winning most unexpectedly
the Bedford Stakes, beating Ambrose and Frantic.
This latter performance at once elevated him into the
position he holds in the betting; like numerous others,
however, he has got but little chance of carrying offthis stake for his owner.
Lord Palmerston's nomination, a b c BUCKTHORN, by
Venison out of Zeila, at Epsom, ran third to Elcot for
the Woodcote Stakes; at Ascot was beaten by Hobbie
Noble, and 'at Winchester was unable to beat the Little
Savage. He, so far as the Derby concerns him, may be
sent to the rightabout at once.
Mr. Howard's b o GELEON, by lon out of Jenny
Jumps, half-brother to the Grecian, not yet appeared to
public view, is a showy-looking horse, something like his
half-brother, but is not destined to accomplish any great
feats as a three-years old.
Mr. B. Way's b C STAPLETON, by Slane out of Cha-
mois, is as yet dark; he is reported to be a tidy animal,
but is of no earthly use for the Derby.
HARLOCK'S LOT
consists of four of Lord Exeter's animals—to wit,
Stockwell, Lens, Ambrose, and Ilex. The first named
has been considered the pick of the stable. I, however,
give the preference to AMBROSE, a bl o by Touchstone
out of a brunette by Priam. He has been running more
than any other two-year old during the last season,
carrying all weights, and going pretty nearly all dis-
tances, but very indifferent success; the consequence is,
that he will be more or less stale at the commencement
of the ensuing season. His best performance was run-
ning second to Red Hind for the Criterion Stakes. It is
singular that, out of twelve starts, he was placed second
or third in every instance but one. He is an useful
animal for small stakes, another Midas, uncommonly
game, but of no use on the downs of Epsom.
STOCXWELL, a ch c by the Baron, out of Pocahontas,
has met with a great deal of support, which his only
couple of performances (at Newmarket) do not seem to
warrant, having only accomplished the feats of running
second to Maidstone for the Prendergast, and fourth to
Red Hind for the Criterion. I will venture to predict
that Stockwell is not one of the names shouted from the
top of the Grand Stand on the Derby day.
LENS, a ch c by St. Martin, out of Camera Obscure,
and ILEX, a ch c by Beiram, out of Dahira, are of no
account whatever.
