CHELTENHAM GRAND ANNUAL STEEPLE-
CHASES.
THURSDAY, March 28.
This aristocratic gathering commenced to-day under
most favourable auspices, the weather being extremely
fine and the attendance numerous. Although the card
contained but four items, the large fields rendered the sport
amply interesting, the Prince of Wales's Steeplechase in
particular partaking of the proportions and excellence of a
" Grand National." The finish for this race and the Marie
Hill Plate was productive of an immense amount of excite-
ment, and the talented jockeys who rode the winners have
seldom displayed their skill more conspicuously. Tho
ample details appended render further comment unne-
cessary :

Betting-6 to 4 agst The Miller, sto 1 each agst High
Pressure and Fireaway. The favourite was first off, fol-
lowed by High Pressure, but after clearing the second
fence Coltswold took second place, he and The Miller al-
ternately leading until within half a mile of home when
the favourite took a decided lead, and won after a little
rousing, by six lengths: Fireaway was a bad third. Mr.
Reeve's mare and Irish Kato refused the first time round
on the far side, High Pressure fell at the post and rails the
second time round, and Ace of Spades, after closing up
with the leaders, died away to nothing a mile from home,
and walked back to the Enclosure.

first off, but after passing the stand The Guide took up the
running ; refusing, however, two fences on, Carnbroe again
held the lead, John Taff lying second. At the next fence
Orontes, overjumping himself, came down, his fall baulk-
ing Osterley and Pretender, but Rickaby quickly re-
mounted and went on in pursuit. The race three-quarters
of a mile from home was reduced to a match between the
favourite and John Taff, the former winning easily by a
length ; The Guide was a bad third ; Orontes fourth ; and
Osterley fifth. Pretender pulled up on the far side. The
winner was bought in for 66 guineas. Mr. Ellison claimed

Garus, and 12 to 1 each agst Tiger, Sea King and Knave
of Trumps. Tally Ho jumped off in advance of Prince,
but the latter, after going fifty yards, took .a clear lead,
followed by Tally Ho, Dispatch, Bon Espoir, Tiger, and
Knave of Trumps, the last named running into second
place on the far side, where the rear division comprised
Pearl Diver, Pensioner, Alcibiade, and Tally Ho. Prince
increased his lead down the hill, the others continually
varying in their positions. Passing the Stand in the
second time Prince began to give way, L. S. D. improving
the pace, taking up the running as they rounded' the
bond, Dispatch going, on second, Tiger, Marble Hill,
Prince, and Garus following in a cluster. At the fence
succeeding the post rails, Marble Hill fell, and with the
exception of L. S. D., Dispatch, Bon Espoir, and Tiger,
nothing else was left in the race. After getting upon heavy
ground, Dispatch and L._ S. D. raced side by side, and
when firmly in the straight for home, Mr. Studd's horse
assumed the lead, and won cleverly by a short length.
The French representative, Bon Espoir, was a bad third,
Tiger 4th, Pearl Diver sth, Tally-ho 6th, Knave of Trumps
and Gams next. Alcibiade walked in with the crowd.
Darkness fell at the fence before the stand, the remainder
being pulled up when pursuit was hopeless. Garus ran
under protest, there being a dispute about the validity of
his sale at Hereford in October last.

Betting-6 to 4on Fortunatua, 4to 1 agst Nuneaton.
Harrington jumped off with the lead, taking the first
flight of hurdles in advance of Maria Louise, Fortunatns,
Tumult, Nuneaton, and Little Ellen, and in this order
they passed the stand. At the turn Harrington overpowered
his rider and bolted out of the course, but was soon again
in the track of his horses. Tumult, however, took up
the running, but refusing the next flight of hurdles For-
tunatus was left in command. In the heavy ground on
the, far side Harrington was again on terms with his
hOrses,sandlas they came up the straight he was again in
front, F(irtimitus lying second and .Nupeatoti third, the
others sloSe up. At the turn Harrington again bolted,
and taking the steeplechase course cleared several of the
fences' before he was pulled up. On the far side, the last
time round, Tumult assumed the lead, but blundering on
the heavy ground fell, leaving the favourite in frOnt, and
although challenged by Nuneaton at the distance, Fortu-
tunatus, now pulling doable, won by two lengths. Little
Ellen was a bad third, Maria Louise trotting in many
lengths in rear.
