the secoud attonipt they got away. Sir Colin rushed to
the front, followed by Skirmisher second, Codrington
third, Adarnas fourth, Tame Deer fifth, and Somerset
sirb, Bracken and St. Giles heading the next lot. On
passing the Grand Stand Codrington drew into the second
place, and on rounding the top turn took the lead, Sir
Colin going on second, Skirmisher third, Adamas fourth, 1
Assayer fifth, Tame Deer sixth, Atrial seventh, Somerset
eighth, St. Giles ninth, Bracken, Borderer, and Porto

went up to Skirmisher and ran with him side by side,
Tame Deer and Assayer being fourth and fifth, Sir Colin
gradually dropping back into the ruck. On ascending
the hill at the far turn St. Giles began to draw for-
ward, and shawed in the fifth place ; and on making for
the siraight Codrington, Skirmisher, and Adamas were
close together, Tame Deer being about two lengths be-
hind them, fourth. These positions were held until they
entered the straight, when Codrington dropped.back and
left Skirmisher with the lead. In a few strides further
Adamas also gave way, and the race was reduced to a
match between St. Giles and Skirmisher, who ran nearly
bead and head to hall-way up the dietance, where Si..
Giles obtained the lead and won very cleverly by a neck;
eight lengths between the second and thirdl; the Elcot's
