Further particulars of this day's races :
The Plate.—Luminary and Alumnus jumped off in front with
so strong a lead that the other three were not fairly up with them
till they had gone nearly 200 yards ; Valiant then took up the
running, and carried it on until within a distance of ending, when
he was headed by Alumnus, who continued a-head to the finish,
and won cleverly by a length.
Column Stakes.—Saltator and Manille cut out the work at start-
ing, but, bad as the paco was, could not long retain it • at the
bushes the horses laid nearly breast, Mr. Osbaldeston's colt on the
outside, Zenana close to the ropes inside, and Babel in the centre ;
at the commencement of the cords Babel and Zenana were at work,
but the favourite, waiting till within twenty or thirty yards of the
chair, came out, and won cleverly by a length ; 14anille and Ermine
were the only two beaten off; the closing odds agst Mr. Osbaldes-
ton's colt were only 5 to 4.
