As soon as the lot were in sight Fanny went to the
front; with Heidelberg, The Martyr, and Kyatky Baschick
next to her; Capsicum and Havelock in the rear. On
corning to the fence rounding the turn for the straight,
both Captain Cooper's two refused (Jack Hinton and
Cockatoo) and may from this point be said to be out
of the race. All got safely over the water jump, and
proceeded up the hill, where the following five only ap-
peared to be in the race, viz., Fanny, with a lead of half-
dozen lengths, The Martyr, Kyatky Baschick, Miss Maude,
and Heidelberg; Redwing heading the next lot, which were
whipped in by Cockatoo. On again coming in sight,
Fanny, with The Martyr and Kyatky Baschick, were lead-
ing twenty lengths, and as the trio came to the turn for
home, where the grey was beaten, the other two came
over the last flight of hurdles side by side; Fanny run-
ning the strongest won easy by six lengths. Kyatky Bas.
chick was a bad third, Smoke fourth, Heidelberg and
Miss Maude fifth and sixth ; Capsicum waked in next,
Havelock coming in riderless, having disposed of his rider
at the last fence but two.

Betting— 2 to 1 agst Lincoln, 4 to 1 agst The Squire, 6 to
1 agst Sledgehammer, 10 to 1 each agst Waverley and First
,Flight, 100 to 8 agst Cockatoo (off).

On coming into view First Flight was leading a couple
of lengths, having Sledgehammer, Cockatoo, Waverley,
and Charles the Twelfth gelding next, all in a ruck, Jack
Hinton and No Mistake heading the next lot, the rear
being brought up by Full Cry and The Squire. In this
order they came on for the water jump, which Sledge-
hammer was the first to charge, followed by First Flight,
Cockatoo, Waverley, Charles the Twelfth, Lincoln, Jack
Hinton, Elvira, Full Cry, No Mistake, and The Squire a
long way in the rear. No change occurred until charging
the fence on the top of the hill, where Jack Hinton, No
Mistake, and the Charles the Twelfth gelding fell and re-
turned by a short cut hone. After this the lot disappeared
from view behind the hill, and, on coming in sight, sledge-
hammer was leading several lengths, First Flight and
Cockatoo side by side second and third, Waverley, Elvira,
and Lincoln in Indian fifv, fourth, fifth, and sixth, Full
Cry and the Squiro many lengths behind. On rounding
the turn opposite the two.year-old post, Lincoln got on
better terms with the leaders, having passed Elvira and
taken fourth place. Soon after this Sledgehammer and
First Flight held out signals of distress and at once re-
tired into the rear. The race was then confined to the
leading trio, viz., Cockatoo, Waverley, and Lincoln. At
the last fight of hurdles the favourite got up to the side of
Waverley, and raced in after Cockatoo, but was never able
to reach Captain Cooper's horse, who won easy by three
lengths, Lincoln beating Waverley by the same ; Sledge-
hammer was fourth, Elvira, fifth, First Flight a dozen
lengths behind next, the Squire walked in seventh ; Full
Cry fell at the last fence but one from home, and, like
Jack Hinton, No Mistake, and the grey gelding, did not
pass the post.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER—FRIDAY.
For the Northamptonshire Stakes Prince Plausible retains
his place. Some money was invested on Rapparee without
altering his position, as 100 to 8, although taken, was after-
wards offered. Finlande and Dusk had friends, but, a slight
advance was not wanted. Agag appears rather shaky for
this event, and he was not very firm for the Chester Cup,
but towards the finish 200 to 10 was booked about him.
The highest offer on the field for the City and Suburban
was 10 to 1, and the highest offer against Camarino was 100
to 6. There was no change on the Derby or Two Thousand
Guineas. Closing prices :--
