Steamboat made-play, followed by Edgbaston and Band-
master, Wild Moor acting as whipper in, the quartette be-
ing separated at intervals of about a length. After going
a quarter of a mile Wild Moor ran into the third place,
and Edgbaston had a momentary lead, Bandmaster for a
short distance being in the rear. Passing the stand for the
second time Steamboat still was in possession of the lead,
Bandmaster now having taken second place, Edgbaston
being about a length in rear of Wild Moor. Half a mile
from home Bandmaster headed Steamboat, and went into

the dip with a slight advantage. A lthough vigourously pur-
sued by Steamboat, Bandmaster always had the best of it,
and won cleverly by a neck; a length separated the second
and third, and Edgbaston was last. Mordan, the rider of
Steamboat, lodged an objection against the winner for a
jostle, which the stewards after investigating overruled.
