The cue to the Derby mystery will be cleared up
to-morrow, when it will be seen whether BAladrurn
is the roarer that his opponents have persistently
stated. When The Wizard won the Two Thou-
sand he was driven back to 25 to 1, and an old
coach horse in the same stable, named Tom Bow-
line, was made first favourite at 6 to 4 and 2 to 1
But The Wizard won in a walk, and poor Tom sas
nowhere. The same result took place i❑ Diophau-
tub's year, when Itnaus was made first favourite
at 2 to 1, and the former ran away with the race,
although at the long price of 25 to 1, cmpeiling
the early backers of the h ra3 to wiu their money
a, dust their will. The Hermit is another instat.ce
where the plungers got the worst of it, as he
actually started for the Derby friendless at 66 to 1,
and so did Queen Bertha for the Oaks at 50 to 1,
as well as Blink Bonny for the Derby at 25 to 1,
and St. Albans and Lord Clifdeu, who both won
the St. Leger iu their respective years, gave the
" foxers" and " plungers" such a dressing that a
great many of them have not shown themselves on
the racecourse since then, having got leave of ab-
sence at head-quarters upon " urgent private
affairs." With these facts staring me in the fie?,
1 cannot but think that BELLADRUM cannot
lose the Two Thousand, if there is any re-
liance to be placed ou training information,
and bearing iu mind his defeating all the be form
that opposed him last year. The next best, in my
esd.natioa, being PUETv:NDEIt and DUKE OF Bcau-
Four. The llermioue colt will credit Baron Roths-
child with the Three Year Old Sweepstakes, and
Blue Gown and Night-jar are certainties for their
respective races. The Two Year Old Plate will be
won by Florian ur Roquefort. There will not be a
large field for the One Thousand Guineas, the best
of the probable starters being Scottish Queen,
Martinique, and Brigantine, and 1 think they will
finish in the order named. The other events to be
decided are of very little importance, and previous
running will be a guide to spot the winners.
