STEEPLE CHASE AT CHELTENHAM.
Last Wednesday one of the grandest and most numerously
attended trials of equestrian skill and bottom ever witnessed
came off--eleven started ; the distance was four miles. At
twelve o'clock Lord Seagrave, as umpire, arrived and went
over the ground, which was of a trying character. The
Speaker took the lead first well—Fugleman went away
gallantly, and made running with the Speaker at a splitting
pace, i3ubadil and the others in the rear. After passing the
barn and cottage the Speaker took the lower line, and the Fe-
gleman abreast of him in the upper. Very little variation in
position of the others at that period. After crossing the road
leading to Andoversford, Fugleman and the Speaker showed
still a head round the barn, and closely followed by Cali*
Bobadil, and b. g. by Spectre; the Speaker took tlie double
fence into the road at one jump. All the others made a
touch-ant'-go jump of it. On passing the ian, Fugleman
sAected a line to the left, fel!na-', ny Conrad, by which they
avoided two good v. and it is supposed this was the nearest
and Tweet cirect road to the winning post. Bobadil went to
the right, abreast of Caliph, the others closely following.
Bobadil jumped the highe,t wall leading into the turnip piece
without touching a stone. The race now became desperate
between Caliph and Bobadil, the latter horse leading over the
last wall. Fugleman, who went over the wall at the upper
end of the field, still looked like winning, having the advan-
tage of a descent to the winning post, while Bobadil, Caliph.
Shade, &c., had to run up the bank. Fugleman had a du.
aided advantage at this part of the race, and would have won,
but his rider mistook the flogs and went outside, instead of be-
tween them. Bobadil and Caliph contended the race abreast
until reaching the winning-post, where Bobadil shot a-head
and won gallantly by half a neck. Over the first wall a
charge made by three horses at the same moment, all of thorn
clearing it—is said to have been one of the most beautiful siglita
in the race. The chase (which was for a sweepstakes of
10 says. each, h. ft. with 25 sous. added, for horses carrying,
12 stone each, the last horse to pay the second horse's stakta
about four miles, 22 subscribers) was performed in fourteen
minutes and twenty-eight-seconds, Mr. Pitt's b. g. Bobadil
(rode by Mr. G. Patrick) winning.
