ASCOT HEATH RACES..—IVEDNESDAY.
For the second day of Ascot races the attendance was
extremely good, particularly in the Grand Stand. The
weather, also, was most charming. The Royal Hunt Cup
Produced the large field of 29, but after the Queen of
Trumps had taken her preliminary canter it was discovered
that she was lame ; consequently she did not go to the
starting-post. The race was won in a very easy manner
by the favourite Victor. In the Ascot Derby, Wells had a
narrow escape from being badly hurt. The horse he was
riding in the race, Brother to Morocco, having been crossed
by Blue Mantle, the former struck into his heels, which
caused him to fall, breaking his leathers and the bridle
owning completely off his head. We are happy to say
Wells did not receive any injury. For the Fernhill Stakes
Tomato came in first, everybody at the same time believing
it to be the Baron's other colt Hilzpolyta, as from some
stupid blunder the letter's nnniber was exhibited on the
telegraph board instead of that of Tomato. The mistake
caused an objection to be made against the winner, ,which
was subsequently gone into by the stewards, who awarded
the race to Tomato, but the subject of bets will be gone
into at Tattersall's on Monday.
