latter, closely attended by Helen, made play till passing
the stand, when Mr. Barber's mare forcing the pace took
up the running with a clear lead of Arkansas, half a dozen
lengths from whom came the favourite and Conundrum,
East Lynn lying off. As they approached the three-guar-
merry Hart was pulled back to the rear,
ters of a mile post,
East Lynn at the same time, drawing up on the inside,
headed Arkansas, who was also passed by Conundrum, the
latter taking second place as they rounded the bend ; but
when fairly in the straight the lot took close order, Helen
having a slight lead of Conundrum, East Lynn, and tho
favourite, who ran through the horses immediately Kenyon
called upon him. Before reaching the distance, Conlin& am
gave way, the favourite waiting on Helen and East Lynn,
till within a hundred and fifty yards of the chair, when ho
shot to the front, and although challenged resolutely by
East Lynn, he shook him off at the commencement of the
