Dick immediately rushed to the front and made play for the
first 200 yards, when he was passed by :the favourite, who
came on with a commanding lead of upwards of a dozen
lengths into the bottom, where Little Dick gave way to
Clementi and Church Militant, who came on in hopeless
pursuit of the leader, who won, hands down, by two
lengths, Church Militant finished a bad third, Little Dick
was fourth, Cowboy fifth, Quicksilver, sixth, the others
beaten off, Twilight being last.
