GRAND STEEPLECHASE.w take place
A steeplechase for a prize of 7,500 f. will
on the 7th of April, at the Hares du Pin, near Nonant
(Orne), for which several English horses of high repu-
tation will contend. This prize has been offered by the
French Government, in the hopes of attracting horses
of this class from England, in order that, by claiming
such as they think fit—whether successful or not
in the race, at a fair and liberal price, they may
continue to maintain the efficiency of their National
Hares. For this purpose, therefore, it will be seen that
the race is confined exclusively to stallions, which will
account for the smallness of the entry,when compared
with the steeplechases that took place a few seasons
back at the Croix do Berny, which were open to horses
of every description. Considering the great expense
attending so long a journey from England, however, the
present entry must be considered a very good one, and we
have no doubt but that the race will attract a large at-
tendance at the Hares du Pit), where is to be seen one
of the finest breeding establishments in the world. The
following are the conditions and entries:—
"A prize of 7,500 f., given by the Administration des
Hares, for stallions not exceeding twelve years old, of
every breed, and from any country (except winners of
steeplechases in France in 1850, and every horse which
shall have been rejected by the Administration des Hams),
added to a sweepstakes of 125 f. each, to go to the second
horse. French ' gentlemen( never having ridden
