THE OAKS.

The Oaks Stakes of 50 sovs. each, h. ft., for fillies, Bst.
41b. Mile and half. All the other conditions the same
as for the Derby. (97 subscribers.)
Sir M. Wood's Vespa
Duke of Grafton's Octave
Mr. Batson's Revelry
The following also started, but were not placed :—Mr.
Barrow's f. by Whisker (Conelly), Mr. Rawlinson's
Funny (Mann), Sir G. Heathcote's Carnation (Buckle),
Duke of Richmond's Ba!ein' (Boyce), Lord Egremont's
sister to Gayhurst (Armin), Lord Chesterfield's Dirce
(Scott), Lord Chesterfield's Weeper (Nat), Mr. Stone-
hewer's Chantilly (Robinson), Mr. Chifney's b. f. by Emi-
lius (Chifney), Mr. Gratewick's sister to Frederick (Nor-
man), General Grosvenor's Falernia (G. Edwards), Col.
Peel's Malibran (Pavis) Lord Exeter's Agina (Darling),
Mr. Cooke's Tarantella (Wright), Mr. Cosby's Diversity
(C. Day), Mr. Grant's f. by Etnilius (Macdonald). H.
Edwards weighed for Mr. Chifney's Deception, but she
did not start. There were repeated fluctuations in the
course of the morning, the prices on the breaking up of
the ring averaging as under :-2 to 1 agst Tarantella
(taken); 7to 1 agst. Shoveler ; 9 to 1 agst. Alecto
(taken); 9 to 1 aget. Revelry (taken); 14 to 1 agst.
Octave; 16 to 1 agst. Funny ; 20 to 1 aget. Malibran ;

20 to 1 agst. Baleine. The winner was not even men •
tioned in the ring, and the only bet we heard out of it was
one hundred pounds to two against her. Weeper was
hacked in the town at 14 to 1, was subsequently declared
to be amiss, and disappeared from the betting. At
ten minutes past three o'clock, the horses started,
Weeper taking the lead, at an indifferent pace—
Alecto and Baleine about a neck behind her ; the rest
in a crowd, all well up ; Tarantella, sister to
Frederick, Revelry, Amina, and Shovel, r being forward.
In the first quarter of a mile Dirce was beaten clean off,
and before they reached Tattenham-corner the favourite,
Tarantella, and Funny, were fain to cut it ; Weeper was

in fr nt till she had completed the turn for straight run-
ning, and then fell back ; sister to Frederick took up the
work, Alecto, Diversity, Raleine, Octave, Revelry, and
Amina all at her quarters, and Vespa handy, ready to come
whenever called upon. At the distance the pace became
pretty good, yet was still a long way off being first-rate.
Alecto gave up here, Diversity tired at the same place,
and Amina (Ed not last many strides farther. Vespa now
catne up with Octave, joined sister to Frederick, and the
three ran together till within fifty or sixty yards of the
Chair, where sister to Frederick was added to the list of
beaten horses, falling behind Revelry (who ran on the
upper side of the Course), and just having the call on
Amina for fourth. The remaining ground was contested
with much severity by Vespa and Octave, the former win-
ning in the last stride by a neck. Revelry was be iten
about a length from the second. Behind her came sister to
Frederick, Ansina, Shoveler, Carnation, and Diversity.
Falernia, Chantilly, Weeper, and two or three others came
in in the tail of the race, but before Tarantella, Fanny,and
Diree. The pace was wretched. Thus was the favourite
beaten in the same palpable manner as was Glaucus on the
Thursday by an outsider, and by the same jockey that rode
the winner of the Derby. The winner ran for the 1,000
Guineas Stakes at Newmarket Second Spring Meeting,
and was beaten in a hand canter by Tarantella. Since
then the latter has been amiss, and Vespa has had her
throat blistered. The same remark applies to this race
that was made on the Derby—all the horses were bad.
We have no reason to believe that Sir M. Wood won any
considers' 1e stake ; he did back her some time back, but
the inferiority of her running naturally deterred him from
going on, and kept her out of the market. Chapple rode
her with admirable patience, and is the only jockey that
has won Darby and Oaks since the year Robinson rode
Cedric and Cobweb. The stakes amount to 2,9001., sub-
ject to the usual deductions. The settling for this and the
Derby is expected to be very harmless.
