agst brother to Tarrare; 4 to 1 apt The Saddirr ; 6 to 1
sgst Bradley ; 7to 1 aget Victoire. Brother to Tarrare
took the lead at a slashing pace, followerl.by Bradley, The
Saddler, and Victoire, Lady Elizabeth lying close in their
haunches, the Trulla filly being also well up : so they re-
mained till after the Middlethorp turn, when The Saddler
passed Bradley and challenged Brother to Tarrare, Lady
Elizabeth joining them. A hard run rice took pliee to
the stand, where Nicholson called on his horse, and, with-
out lifting his hand, won cleverly by nearly a length.
Nicholson, who has remarkably short legs, spurred The
Saddler on the left aide above the bock ; Brother to
Tarrare, by Nelson; Lady Elizabeth, by Edwards;
Victoire, by W. Scott; Bradley, by Darling; Truih, by
Templeman ; And Thimbleman, by T. Lye. The owner
of The Saddler had a liberal offer for his horse previous to
the race from Mr. Gully, who would not have allowed
him to start if his terms bad been accepted. The horse
was decidedly amiss, wrs frequently heard couching
during the day, had a cracked heel, and has done little or
no work for the last month. Had he been well, there is
no doubt he would have been backed against the field.
Under these circumstances, Mr. Skipseys conduct •in
starting him is highly praised.
