SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
LIVERPOOL RACES.
CUP RACE.—FURTHER PARTICULARS.
At the first signal My Mary, Mongrel, and Cranebrook got
off in a line, and with the Highwayman, the Conjuror, and
As-you-like-it in their wake, cut out the work alternately to
the top of the course. My Mary then obtained a clear lead,
bit was deprived of it by her two companions at the road,
and followed them to the Bridge turn, the Conjuror and
highwayman still lying very forward. Here Div Mary re-
covered the lead, and, sustaining a pace that had been good
from the first, held it to the straight running, where Crane-
brook and Mongrel once more showed ahead. Their chances,
however, were out at the distance, and Plaudit took the
lead, attended closely by Lightning and Yardley, every other
horse having cried " enough." This trio ran together to the
Stand, where Lightning drew upon the mare, headed her about
a dozen strides from home, and won cleverly by a length,
Plaudit beating Yardley by a head, Mongrel fourth, the Con-
juror fifth, and My Mary sixth. Run in 3 min. 33 sec.
