Betting-5 to 2on Flatcatcher, and 7to 2 agst Canezou.
Miss Harrison was the first to make play, but after leading
at a miserable pace, for about half a mile, was passed by Flat-
catcher, who went on with a lead of three or four lengths at a
capital pace, to the bottom of the course, where Besborough
and Canezou, who had been lying in the centre, took the
second and third positions, and the interval between them
and their leader rapidly diminished. Besborough was
beaten at the Gravel road, and Canezou went on in waiting
on the favourite, whom she caught and headed half way up
the distance, and won in a very clever style by a length,
Distaflina a very bad third. Run in 4 min. 6 sees.
After the race the winner was backed at 4 and 5 to 1 for
the St. Leger, and 8 to 1 offered against Flatcatcher.

an unfavourable turn after the first race, and did not clear up
until after the St. Leger was decided. The course was heavy,
and the company much smaller than might have been ex.
pected.
