de l'Enclos, 15 to 1 each agst Affidavit and Arcturus, 25 to
1 agst any other.
The lot got away well in a line, but by the time they hag
gone over the quarter of a mile which separates the starting
post from the stands, had settled down into places. Bou-
oicaut at this moment led, with Bayard coming next, .the.7l
and Boat 7,
Ninon, Comme-ca, Arcturus, Bois Roussel,
the order named, the last three being Poudriere, Torticoll%
and Civility. After passing the booths Bayard mastered;
his jockey and rushing to the front took a lead of sin or
eight lengths, which he maintained for a short time, and
then suddenly shut up, and went to the rear. Along
the road before the villas the only incident was the gradual
workin u of Civility and Pondriere, who had hitherto
g p
been running at the tail. After passing the stables the
four leading horses formed a line abreast across the course,
with Bois Roussel running coupleati of lengths behind. The
quartette were, howeveera,cbheeadetnhen ascending the hill, and
by the time they
had
drwho h corner were no longer in
the race. Roussel,had been running steadily
33.`" foud
biding his time, now himself almost alone in front,
the only horses near him. being Affidavit, Ninon, and Bea-
trix. Along the straight the pace which had before been.
good, slackened, and the position then remained the same up
to within 200 yards of the stand, Affidavit was then seen
to make an effort, and in a moment was alongside of Bois
Roussel. For a moment M. Lunel's colt showed in front,
but Flatman, with an application of the whip, again
brought the favourite up to the mark ; the lead was re-
covered, and Bois Roussel increasing his advance up to the
post paksoLl a winner by a length and a half. Civility and
P ()wirier° passed Ninon and Beatrix at the stands, and came
in third and fourtb, Mr. Carter's filly finishing a couple of
lengths in the Affidavit, and Poudriere a length behind
Civility. Beatrix and Ninon were fitth and sixth, and the
rest scattered over the course anywhere. Value of the
stakes 52,000 fr„ deducting 2,000 fr. for the second.
