BRITON

would be the lot upon which our selection would fall, and in
the order named.

" The Stable Mouse," of the Era, says :—Do you know
that I have been watching Golden Pippin all this year I'
and what wretched performances hers have been, haven't
they ? But what are performances when there is a Cesare-
witch in view ? The money is the thing, and see how they
have been heaping the money on. There is, I think, little
mistake in it. Now for my pick. I must take two—in a
race like the Cesarewitch I ought to be allowed two—l must
be allowed two, and I will have two, and they are
GOLDEN PIPPIN, or BEN WEBSTER ;
and you'll find that I'm near the mark.

The writer in the Sunday Times concludes his letter as
follows :—Taking certain " moves" into consideration—for
public performances go for nothing in the Cesarewitch—we
shall stand upon

GOLDEN PIPPIN,
and the next two in our fancy are NEWCASTLE and
OPTIMIST.

" Nemo," of the Horning Advertiser, says :—The win-
ner is likely to emanate from the following half-dozen :
Yrs st lb Yrs st lb
Comforter 4 8 6 Dulcibella 3 6 11
Cape Flyaway .... 3 8 1 Golden Pippin 3 6 4
Ben Webster 3 7 9 Plumper

" Augur," of the Sporting Life, concludes by saying " To
attempt to unravel the Cesarewitch problem is no easy
task, but in selecting

BARABBAS AND KILLIGREW,

some guide may be given to those who are endeavouring
to discover the royal road to fortune. Golden Pippin's pre-
tensions I most decidedly repudiate, and shall even ex-
pect to see horses like Sandy McPherson finish before her.
Should either of my champions be vanquished, Moorcock
will most likely accomplish their overthrow.

" Olympus," of the Sporting Telegraph, writes :—" Upon
public form (always the best criterion) Bevis is the only
animal that W. Day possesses capable of winning, and as
that is all I have to found my opinion upon I must stick to
Bevis, despite the appearance of the market, which is dead
against me. In making my final choice let me stand on
BEVIS and KILLIGREW to win, and failing, the
GOLDEN PIPPIN.

•
" Observer," of the Field, says :—" In conclusion, when
compelled to record one's impressions so long prior to the
day, some allowance should be made for a change in the
market and casualties, and therefore I prefer taking a lot to
standing upon one singly. Mine, therefore, shall be
GOLDEN PIPPIN, DULCIBELLA, COMFORTER, MOORCOCEZ,
ANCIENT BRITON, and BARABBAS, and I trust the tele-
graphic return will confirm its correctness."
