took the lead it a fine pace, the rest well laid in ; after
unning about half the distance Refugee took up the play,

Mr. Wreford's b. c. Washington, by Smolensko
Mr. Shard's b. c. Caleb, by Waterloo
Mr. Farquharson's b. c. by Reveller, d. by Waterloo a
Caleb made all the play he cou:d from the beginning,
followed by the Reveller colt, and Washington laying be-
hind as unconcerned as if he was cantering over alone ;
thus they continued till within a short distance of the win-
ning post, when Sam Day, in a st) le seldom equalled,
brought out his horse like an arrow, completely astoma l-
ing the yokels, and won a pretty race easy by a neck.
Washington has since been sold to Colonel Udney for
1,600 guineas, he is a very promising colt, as our Ascot
friends must have considered him ; he was bred by Mr.
Wreford, a gentleman residing near Exeter, who very
judiciously confided him to that skilful trainer, Mr. Dilly,
(trainer of Priam, Cetus, &r.) who never fails to produce
winners from his stable, and to bring them to the post in
the highest possible condition.
