-Harry Miller, on the Orphan, took the lead at starting, at a
merry rate, all keeping so close that a sheet would have cover-
ed them : at the distance-post, Streatham, rode by Bill Amull,
came up, and a most severe slashing race ensued till ending, all
coming in so very close that the Judge could only place two—
won by half a neck. The Brownie was rode by R. Boyce;
Merirnia. by Macdonald; and Phantasma, by a promising, lad
named Winnyatt. The beauty of the race was owing entirely
to the sound judgment and impartiality with which the horses
were handicaped by Mr. Ramsbottom.
