post, where they split, the running being taken up by
St. Angela, closely attended by Speculum, Cheltenham,
Gloiro do Dijon, Choral, Sister to Vedette, and Easby to
the " Bushes hill." Here the two latter were in difficul-
ties, and half-way down the hill were hopelessly beaten,
When fairly in the bottom the issue was loft with the three
placed, who drew away from their followers as they en-
tered the rails and finished an exciting race home, St. An-
gola being first by a neck. Speculum and Cheltenham
finished with a dead heat for second. On returning to the
scale Morris made an objection to the winner on the ground
of a jostle, which was subsequently investigated by the
stewards, who disqualified her, and, in consequence of the
next two finishing with a dead heat, they were ordered to
run tho race off.
Deciding Heat—Betting-6 to 5 on on Speculum. They
lay together to half-way in the cords, where the race com-
menced h 4 earnest, Cheltenham, who always appeared to
have a trifle the best of it, winning a splendid race by a

thisounty was $8,500,377, coin—in currency, $10,890,050 ;
