E. PARR,

of Upper Lambourn, Berkshire, has Mr. °tabs.ldes-
ton's ch c Provost Marshal, by Cotherstone, out of
Camp Follower, in slow work. He has run twice,
and cut up badly each time. " The Squire" must
find something better than this colt if he intends
to do aught at Epsom.

R. DREWITT,
of Lewes, has under his care a b c of Mr. W.
Smith's, Little David, by Slave out of 011 a, a run-
ner and loser once ; and Mr. W. Hale's Haco (late
Harold), by Old England, out of Dauntless, nomi-
nated by Sir J. Hawley, also a runner once, when
he was beaten off easily by Tamerlane, at Hampton.
Neither will be of any service in the race of races.
The four Derby horses in training at Epsom, are
very inferior animals ; the Libel colt being perhaps
the best.

Reeves has a couple, namely, his own b c Deer-
hound, by the Fallow Buck, out of Growl, nomi-
nated by Mr. Carew, five times a starter, but never
a winner ; and Mr. Delamere's b c by Libel, out of
My Dear, who has yet to put in his first appear-
ance.

Dockeray has Mr. Greville's br c by Alarm, out
of Alkali, nominated by Mr. E. R. Clarke, a loser
in the only race he has run ; and Wycherley is
imitating Mr. Heathcote's br c Condor, by Laner-
cost, out of Cytherea, who has not appeared in
public as yet, in the art and mystery of travelling
to victory, or somewhere else.
The following Derby horses are out of training
—Mr. Delamere's colts by Don John and Para-
gone ; Mr. Collingwood's Tweed.side ; Mr. Adams's

colt by the Merry Monarch, dam by Fmilius ; Mr.
Harris's c by the Emperor, out of Odille ; Mr.
Wright's c by Verulam, out of Makeless, nomi-
nated by Mr. Booth ; Captain Little's Magnet ;
Mr. Lumley's c by Hetman Platoff, out of Gazelle ;
Mr. Carew 's Nomination, by War Eagle, out of
Rigolette ; Mr. Holliday's Sir Richard ; Mr.
Hare's Whanghee ; Mr. Burgess's c by Valentis-
•simo, out of Chutnee ; and Mr. Sadler's Charon,
nominated by Mr. Algernon Massingberd. This
last named animal is not in England, therefore, I
have classed him with the foregoing, but I have
heard that he is, or has been, at work on the Con-
tinent.

Mr. Burgess's c by Dulcimer, out of Africa, and
Mr. G. Hobson's c by lon out of Recruit's dam,
have paid the debt of nature.
