THE EGHAM CASE.
The Jockey Club decided this morning that Pilgrim is four
years old instead of three, as represented by Mr. Theobald ; that
he is to be considered distanced in all the races he has run, and
stakes that he has won given to the owners of the horses that ran
second to him ; the bets will also go to the second horses, except
in the case of the Surrey and Middlesex Stakes at Egham, where it
was agreed by the betting men the bets shou'd stand as the horses
came in. By this decision the stakes won by Pilgrim at St. Albans
go to Mr. Gardnor, as owner of King William ,• the Egham cup to
Mr. Day's Liston, and the Surrey and Middlesex stakes to the
Duke of Richmond's Conciliation. The history of the case is
shortly as follows :—ln 1829, Mr. John Scott, the trainer, sold a
black colt, by Waverley, out of Vaultress, to a Mr. Drage of
Northampton, for 25/., the colt then rising two years old, and
standing in the Hougoumount Stakes for two yr olds, at Ponte-
fract, 1829, in Lord llawke's name. Mr. I)rage then transferred
him to Messer (Mr. Theobald's trainer) who is stated to have
locked him up in the stable for several months, brought big/ out
with a rough coat, with breaking tackle on and then repro.
sented him as a yearling got by I)on Cossack; subsequently he
ran as a two year old, being thm a ye-a; older, and this year as a
three year old, of course carrying weight accordingly, and run-
ning at a great advantage. Mr. John Scott gave evidence before
the Club that the horse was foaled in 1827, and that his sire is
Waverley, not Doti Cossack, who had " no blood mares sent to
him that year." It is clear that Mr. Drage had a perfect know-
ledge that the horse was running under false colours, but it is
not proved that Mr. Theobald participated in the decepron. At
is curious, that in all the races won by Pilgrim, Pavis rode the
second horse.
