and Col. Peel's colt to the rise of the hill nut of the Ab. M.
bottom, where the latter went in front, and won easily by a
length; the last two were beaten off.
The 501. Plate.—The work was cut out a good pace by Ca-
racole, Primefit and Adrian following him to the T. Y. C. post ;
Primetit then took the lead, with Adrian in waiting, who chal-
lenged at the cords, and appeared to have the best of the race ;
he stopped, however, at the last, and was beaten by a head.
The weather was fine, the attendance full, and the sport, if
short in quantity, of a satisfactory description.
