where he was passed by both Chirper and Lancaster, Dart-
moor and Convivialist lying fourth and fifth. On rounding
the turn into the straight Dartmoor passed Sycophant, and
joined Chirper and Lancaster. At the distance Chirper was.
beaten. Lancaster and Dartmoor then came on side by side
40 the half•distance, where Dartmoor showed the white
feather, and would have cut it had not Johnny Daley forced
him along. Lancaster, however, won very easily by six
lengths; Chirper was a bad third, Sycophant next. Con-
vivialist cantered in and did not pass tho post. The winner
was not claimed.

An excellent start took place, but they had scarcely
settled into their places when Sherborne rushed to the
front and carried on the running at a good pace, having
British Prince and Pixie close in this wake. On coming to
the road British Prince fell back, and Crater, Rockley,
Vinegar Hill, and Flitch closed up with Sherborne and
the light weight. Opposite the Old Stand, Crater ap-
peared to be beaten, and Grimshaw had his work to do to
make the favourite keep his position, whilst Amsterdam
had been gradually improving his place, and at the half
distance was in the front lot. 11 hen within about a hun-
dred yards of the chair Adams gave Crater a shake, and
landed him a clever winner by half a length ; three lengths
between the second and third; the favourite was fourth,
Flitch was fifth, Pixie sixth, Rockley next—Volition and
British Prince, the last two, beaten off. Entwistle was,
after the race, fined £2 for cantering down the course be-

close at his heels, Lord of the Tees lying off. In coming
round the turn into the straight the three were abreast,
and they passed the distance locked together. They then
set to, and the finest finish of the day was seen; Redpole
