BLOOD SALES AT TATTERSALLS

Late as is the period of the year, the sale list of the
Messrs. Tattersall at Albert Gate on Monday contained no
fewer than one hundred and fifteen lots, nearly all of
which found buyers. Among the horses sold were several
thoroughbreds, the property of Mr. T. V. Morgan and Mr.
Mound, the former of whom was announced as giving up
racing. Though advertised a considerable time, the sale
of these studs failed to attract many buyers, but, neverthe-
less, among the company assembled were several good
judges, and pretty fair prices were consequently realised.
Mr. T. V. Morgan's stud was first "put up," The Plover
being put to the fore in the hope of bringing intending
buyers to Albert Gate in time for the opening of the sale ;
and this arrangement had the desired effect, for by the time
the sale came on the yard was pretty well filled, the princi-
pal notabilities present being the Earl of Falmouth, the Earl
of Cardigan, Lord Vivian, Baron Schatzler, Col. Bathurst,
Col. Gambier, Capt. Watt (Bishop Burton), Capt. Machell,
Mr. A. Heathcote, Mr. Mound, Mr. R. Ten Broeck, Mr.
Alexander, Mr. Coventry, Mr. Blenkiron, Mr. Studd, Mr.
Gorton, &c. Plover, who looked nothing the worse of
all his labours this year, was put in at 200g5., but he
soon doubled that figure, and was at last knocked down
to the owner of Dalby very cheap for 410 gs. Vindicator
came next, but although he ran a game race the other day
with Comberton at Worcester for the Froe Handicap
Steeplechase, the bidding for him was very spiritless, and
Mr. Crook got him a bargain for 125 gs. Lucrene, a very
thick, strong, useful filly, by Knight of Kars, who will in a
year or two be well up to 13st, was taken by Baron Schatz-
ler cheap enough for 80gs. Contraband, who lately dis-
tinguished himself as a hurdle jumper at Cheltenham and
Hereford by winning at both places, caused some lively
competition, and Mr. G. Rice got him for 190 gs. Lord of
Eltham, another Marsyas, " hung fire" for some time, but
though put in at the low price of 30 he made 110 gs, at
which figure he was taken by a Mr. Smith. Tho next, a
largo clever-shaped three year old colt by Neville out of
Annie, by Archy, was very tardily bid for, though the
making of a fine horse. lie opened at 40gs, and did not
reach much more than double the figure when Mr. Ly-
wood got him. Rustic Beauty had but few admirers, and
Mr. Gibbs got her cheap for 65gs. Spes, a rather small
but pretty filly, by Stockwell out of Hope's dam, notwith-
standing her high breeding, went to Mr. Blenkiron at
the low figure of 65gs; and Columbine, a neat racing-
like filly, by Wild Dayrell out of Actress, would
have returned to her box unsold, had not Mr. A. Heath-
cote, with the intention of starting her bid a " pony " for
her, a figure all Mr. Edward Tatt3rsall's eloquence failed
to increase. Gipsy King came next, and this good-looking
son of Marsyas and Gipsy Queen was greatly admired.
His engagements, amounting to £195, wore no little draw-
back to his sale, but he nevertheless caused some lively
competition, and was eventually knocked down to Mr. A.
Heathcote for 320 guineas—a very cheap horse if his tem-
per is but right, of which we have some suspicion, as he
was rather fractious when led out, and also in returning to
his box. Feemy, a thick, useful filly, brought her value
when the hammer fell to Mr. Clayton's bid of 155 guineas.
The yearlings, eight in number, were now introduced, and
the first four were so indifferent they made in the aggregate
but 88 guineas. The fifth was the colt byNewminster out of
The Jealous One, bought by Mr. Morgan at the Middle Park
sale last August. The colt, who was returned in the list as
unbroke, has grown considerably, is very lengthy and
good-looking, but somewhat light of bone, and with rather
small feet. He was put in at 100 gs., and Mr. Beadsman
got him far from dear at 165 gs. Circe—another of the
Middle Park yearlings—ono of the largest and most fur-
nished fillies we have ever seen, was greatly admired, but
she nevertheless failed to bring anything like her value
when the hammer fell to Mr. Watson's bid of 320 gs. Li-
quidator, by Dundee out of Exact, who brought 420 gs. at
the Middle Park sale, has improved so much since then
that he more than made up the loss on Circe, as he realised
750g5., Capt. Machell being his buyer. The colt by Man-
dricardo out of Merry Wing, who fetched 90gs., and re-
turns to Richmond, having been bought by Mr. Watson
for one of his employers, concluded the sale of Mr. T. V.
Morgan's stud, which altogether realised 3,073g5.
Tho sale of Mr. Maund's stud followed that of Mr. Mor-
gan's, but beyond Mother of Pearl, who was bought by
Mr. Gorton for 300g5., they made poor prices, Maid of Usk
going to Mr. Brown for 62, and Marquis of Worcester for
85gs. Maesgwatha, Man of Ross, and Monmouthshire
cess of their
t
Lass returned to their boxes unsold, the engagements of
the two latter being considerably
fa
far
