FO BERT'S LOT

consists of Lord Egliuton's trio—Claverhouse, Pelopi-
das, eud Lucio.

CLAvEniaousE, a b c by Birdcatcher, out of Blue
Bonnet, is at present somewhat out of favour, on account
of being shin sore, and otherwise out of order, though up
to last week a great favourite. His performances have
been considerably above mediocrity; in fact, I may
almost say, first class. He made his debit at New-
market by running second to Hobbie Noble for the July
Stakes, beating Livermere and two others easily. He
next appeared at Goodwood, where he won the Ham
Stakes, beating Harbinger and seven others easily by
two lengths; he also ran fourth (being knocked up at
the time) to Filius for a 200 Sovs. Stakes, and finished
by walking over for the two years old Produce, and
winning the Municipal Stakes at Doncaster. He is one
of the best proportioned horses to be found in the Derby
entry, and more completely a Derby horse than any
other. If ho trains on satisfactorily, of which I enter-
tain serious doubts, he will be first or second for the
Two Thousand Guineas, and stand kfirst-rate chance

for the great event now in consideration.
PELOPIDAII, a ch c by Birdcatcher out of Bellona, has
run respectably twice out of three times, and will be
heard of in some of the great handicaps, but not advan-
tageously in the Derby market.
Lucto, by Faugh-a-Ballagh out of Fantastic, is a
black colt of the deepest dye. He has run once at
Northallerton, where he was second to Bird-on-the-
wing for alO SEWS. stake. The remarks that I applied
to Pelopidas I may affix to this horse.
PECK'S LOT

is centred in a couple, Lnamely, Womersley and Young
Hammond, the former enjoying the principal attention.
Major Yarborough's be YOUNGHAMMOND, by Ithuriel
out of Easter, has never appeared in public, though he
is to be seen daily at exercise at Malton, where ocular
demonstration may be had of his being no Derby horse,
yet is a tidy animal.
Mr. S. Liawk6'd b C WOIIERSLEY, by Irish Bird-
catcher out of Cinizelli, is as dark as his stable compa-
nion, but withal a much finer animal. He has engaged
the attention of the betting world considerably lately,
and will do so much more ero long
tion atlMalton is to be credited. More of him anon.
I am, Sir, yours. &c.,if his private reputa.
