THE DERBY LOTS AT NEWMARKET.
In continuation of my review of the Derby horses 56
Newmarket, I shall next examine

C. FISHER'S
lot, which consist of three of General Anson's, and one
of the Marquis of Westminster's. The General's trui°'
ch c by Don John out of Potentia ; br c ,
Don John out of Lollypop ; and br f MAYFAIR, by BaY
Middleton out of Black Bess—are not destined to figure
in the Derby fray. The first has attempted thrice to
a deed worth naming, but has failed
most signally
each occasion. The second has never run but is
0:1;
dently a wretched specimen of horse flesh. Thillo
named is as yet also a non-starter • but, if she stands
_
training (a questionable affair), will' do something The

General's colt, by Tearaway- t having
, proved his worthlessness by running last in the only
race he started for, has been out of training. anta.
The Marquis of Westminster's b cuPofs Finesse', r
reprbe.Y
loon out:of Decoy, by Filho da Puta ou D
Peruvian ; Violante, by John Bull,
willt be the sentative of the stable for the Derby. Re has not TT_
as yet, and will make his debut, I believe, at Chester,
the race for the Dee Stakes. He was introduced into
the betting on the 3d of last May, at Tattersall's, at n
to 1 ; and has been backed occasionally at long inter-
vals at the same figure, which is about 10 points under.
the price that may be obtained about him at the present
time. His blood is undeniable. I wish .1 could sal
same of his legs. Should he train on satisfactorily'', be
will run much better than is generally imagined on the
Derby-day ; but, I cannot, at the present time, fang
him good enough for a place, much less as winner.

G. BLOSS
has a solitary Derby horse of Mr. Mare's in preparatioll;
the b c PHAROLD, by Alarm out of Lady Trampoline,
who he purchased of the nominator (Capt. Delme) why
a yearling. He has only appeared in public once, at the
Newmarket Houghton Meeting, where, carrYing„
71b, he won a sweepstake over the Ab. in a ean",',
by a length ; beating Nicotine Bst 41b (second), Glenarr
Bst 41b (good third), and Cobnut Bst 71b (a bad fours"'
and last). That this horse possesses speed must be OTi:
dent to all who saw this performance, or the vr.„o
which he generally does his work, and that he Ww___;:
do
many a good thing in the time to come ; but as to
ning the Derby I must decidedly say no, although ba
may obtain a forward place.
Mr. Mare's br c by Touchstone, dam by Discount on
&
of Blucher, has been out of training for a length of time"

H. BRADLEY
has Count Bathgany's b c STONE PLOVER ,(brother
Stilton), by Cotherstone out of Wryneck, under his nare,;
He has not exhibited up to the present time ; was doing
moderate work before the frost sot in, and in my 0131'71,-0,
is not equal to his brother, or to the task of winning
Derby, although a tolerably sure starter.
The Count's other nomination b c BniGgrvirALTlLtg;
by Beverlac out of Cecilia, he sold last year, and by (10i:1'
so acted most judiciously, as he is a very inferior anir°
and was about last in both the races he started for.

STEPHENSON, JUN.
has half-a-dozen Derby animals of Lord Clifden's in tr 9511,1;
ing, three of whom—b c MOLASSES, by St. Frances°-
of Treacle, nominated by General Anson, a winner 011
in nine starts ; b c FFRAHORZ, by lon out of it°9°°d
Cashmere, four times a starter, but never a winner ;
br c WARBLER, by Don John out of Cavantina, nri-sr;
nated by Sir J. Hawley, a runner and loser twice--°aa
not the smallest pretensions to be considered even eec°-
rates.
Lord Clifden's b cGLENGARRY, by Cotherstone outti
Glenlui, I stated on the 10th of July last year, W°
never stand training, which is the ease.
Lord Clifden's b c CONSTANTINE, by Cotherstone cut
of Crucifix, by Priam out of Octaviana, by Oar lb°
with some of the best blood in his veins to found 111 „id
kingdom, is afflicted with very doubtful legs, but 6114
he stand preparation, in my opinion will turn out to
respectable animal. Has not run as yet, and I pres,, or
will make his debz2t on Monday in the Craven wee'.
the Riddlesworth.
Lord Clifden's' br c by Cotherstone out of 3.03111,1ri11,,rd
by Priam out of oanna bSultan, nominated by 3-':10
Villiers, is another well-bred animal, and the relli,Ter,
which I apply to the preceding will, letter for le"
stand good for this horse also, ~ut of
Lord Clifden's b c CHEDDAR, by Cotherstone _tea
Clementina, by Acto3on, dam by Phantom, nonuirso.
by Lord Jersey, will, I presume, be the Derby regsg. for
tative of the stable. He has run twice, filllBl head;
the Triennial Stakes at Ascot close to the Reiver
ssily
and winning the Mottisfont Stakes at Stockbridge,edif
—beating Vaultress and seven others. He is undelluether
teg t
a good horse, but has not been doing his work al
in the most satisfactory manner. Will run forw
Epsom, TllO
