and led at a good pace, Beverley laying at his quarters till
turning the Mansfield-road turn, where the favourite took
second place, and made his effort to reach the leader ; but,
failing to do so, he was slightly eased at the half distance,
and Beverley passed him, and was only beaten by Wynnstay
on the post by a head ; Malta was a good third, only beaten

mark, 9 to 2 agst Heiress, 5 to I agst Bradfield, 6 to 1 agst
Rosamond, and Bto 1 agst Prologue. A good start was
effected, Prince of Denmark instantly going to the front,
having Bradfield, Calpe, Rosamond, Prologue, and Heiress
in Indian file in the order given. On coming along in front
of the Stand the first time the same order was maintained,
the Prince leading at least four lengths. This distance was
lessened on coming round the back, where Calpe and Brad-
field took closer order with' the leader; Heiress, apparently
disliking the pace, was tailed off. On going along the deep
sand up to the Mansfield-road turn, the three leaders were
well ahead of the others, but rounding the turn, Bradfield
fell back, and Prologue passed him and was third; in the
straight, half-way down which the race was confined to the
two leading horses (Prince of Denmark and Calpe), they
raced on in close order to the half distance, where Calpe ap-
peared to tire, and the Prince, running the gamest, won
cleverly by half a length. Rosamond passed Prologue be-
tween the distance post and the chair, and finished five
lengths from Calpe ; Prologue was fourth ; Bradfield pulled
up beaten, and was placed fifth; Heiress, who was last
throughout, did not pass the post.

Betting-7 to 4 agst Hambleton Lass, 3to 1 agst

several false starts, caused by the breaking away of Breech-
loader, Sloth, and Hambleton Lass, the lot got off and
Breechloader was left slightly behind. Sloth took the lead
at first, but soon had to give way to the favourite, who
won easily at the finish by a length ; a neck between second
and third ; Buttercup was a good fourth, Evangeline fifth,
with Breechloader, beaten off, last. The winner was after-

Betting—Even on King of Hearts, 5 to 2 agst Keane,
and 9to 2 agst Antares. The favourite took a slight lead
to the turn, where Antares and Keane separated them-
selves from the ruck, and came on in close order with the
favourite. At the distance Keane had to fall back into the
rear, and Antares got in close order with the King, the two
coming on by themselves, King of Hearts having a slight
advance. A most magnificent finish then took place with
the two, when the favourite won by a neck ; Keane was a
bad third ; the rest were placed in the order above, but
were all widely scattered.
