Cadiz, on the lower ground, got away slightly in advance

very easily. Mr. Bryan claimed Juliet.

Sundeelah, with Camball on his whip hand, made play,
closely attended by Fantail, Tusculimun, and The Turner
to the bushes, when the latter dropped back, and when
fairly in the bottom Sundeelah gave evidence of defeat, and
on entering the cords ho was headed by Count Batthyany's
colt, who half-way up made his effort to get up, but failed,
and was beaten easily by three parts of a length ; a bad
third, Fantail was fourth, Boleno and The Turner close

Rose Cheri, with a clear lead, cut out the work at a good
pace, Trapeze going on second, with the favourite and Jura
lying up, the others who wore headed by Veracity, Black
Prince, and Mazurka, lying away several lengths. They
retained these positions until they reached the rails, when
Jura headed Wolfdog and Trapeze; but failing to reach the
leader ho was beaten cleverly by three parts of a length.
There were three lengths between the second and third ;

The limited accommodation left at tho service of the repro-
sentatives of the press, and the confusion of the race, and the
short space of time between the departure of the special
train must plead as an excuse for our somewhat brief, and,
perhaps, in some instances, imperfect account. With the
assistance, however, of the principal of those riding in tho
race, we believe our return will be found in its main fea-
tures substantially correct, and will embody the chief
phases that occurred during its progress. The ample time
Mr. Manning had at his disposal allowed him the oppor-
tunity of exhibiting the names of the three dozen riders on
the telegraph, and shortly after those saddled at the top of
the town were seen cantering down to meet those who se-
lected the Ditch stables as their location. With little or no
loss of time their toilet was completed in the presence of a
large assemblage of equestrians, who having witnessed
their preliminary breathings, cantered off to their respec-
tive position to witness the race. It is needless to state
that with so large a field an immediate start could not be
expected, and as usual, from the over anxiety of several of
the " light weights" to get away, among whom Barker, on
Heir-at-Law, was conspicuous upwards of three-quarters of
an hour was consumed at the post before M‘George was
enabled to lower his flag. This consummation so patiently
waited for was welcomed
.by loud and prolonged shouts,
and all waited the issue with breathless interest. Shortly
after the moving cavalcade was seen sweeping towards the
Turn of the Lands on the flat in an unbroken line, which,
as the declining sun ever and anon gave a clearer view of
their colours, appeared like a charge of cavalry, when the
Duke and the redoubted Gladiateur, who began indiffe-
rently, were seen two or threelengths in the rear of every-
thing, having selected their places on the upper ground.
As soon as they came past the now stand, Moldavia, in the
centre of the course, took a decided lead, closely attended
by Nu, Gardevisure, Merry Wife, Breadalbane, Master
Richard, Sister to Drake, Gratitude, and King Charming
on the right ; then came Gontran, Red Earl, Ostregor,
Helen, Out-and-Outer, Holstein, and Provisor in a body
on the lower ground, close up with whom, heading the
next division, were seen the colours of Regalia, Catch-'em-
Alive, Zephyr, and Lady Egidia. As they ran past the
Criterion post, Provisor was seen suddenly to give way, and
the Duke, who had gradually been making up his headway,
took his place on the upper ground, some half-dozen lengths
in the wake of Sister to Drake, who appeared to be
going as well as anything. At the Old Duke's Stand the
pace, which up to this point had been very fast, had told
its tale upon some of the field, which began to exhibit a
straggling appearance, when shouts arose proclaiming the
victory of Moldavia, but they were scarcely repeated before
his sombre colours were seen gradually to fade away, and
the gayer ones of Lord Poulett, mistaken by hundreds for
those of Gladiateur, were seen to take a prominent position
in the van, closely pressed by Gardevisure and Sister to
Drake and The Duke, the latter apparently running within
himself and biding his time. Half-way in the rails the
latter was observed to give way, having struck his leg, and
his chance, when most promising, was over, leaving the
issue with the three. Gardevisure, admirably ridden by
Carter, waited until a dozen strides of the chair, and then
came up full of running, add won cleverly by a neck. There
were four lengths betweenAhe second and third ; the Duke
was fourth, Moldavia fifth, Master Richard sixth, King
Charming seventh, and Zephyr next. Then came Lady
Egidia, Regalia, and Ostregor close together, a long way
in advance of a lot of pulling-up horses, among which wore
noticed Red Earl, John Davis, and Endsleigh, in the ex-
treme rear of which were Provisor and Bacchus, the former
of which broke a blood vessel.

Optional Selling Stakes of 5 soya each, with 25 added;
for 2-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 121 b; and fillies, Bst 81b. The
winner to be sold for 250 soya, with selling allowances.
