Mavourneen cut out the work, followed by Desmond,
Rosedale, and Newcastle to the top turn, where Mavour-
neen ran out, leaving Desmond with the lead, which he
held but a brief period, Cliff's mare again going to the
fore. On reaching the hovel the quartett closed up and
ran together to the distance, where the favourite, followed
by Newcastle, drew away and ran a close race home, Rose•
dale winning cleverly at last by two lengths; blavourneen
a bad third ; Desmond last, beaten a long way.

Betting-5 to 2 agst The Dane, 3to 1 agst Doubtful, 4

Medora made play, closely followed by Wee Nell, Doubt-
ful, The Dane, Tumbler and Cockatoo, Longford and Long-
range lying off. On reaching the first obstruction, a stiff
post and rails, the leading horses got safely over. The
favourite was not so fortunate, as he struck the top bar
heavily and fell, giving Walter White a severe shaking.
With this exception, the lot got safely ever, and went
streaming along the adjoining meadow, in the order we have
given them. On rounding the turn into the straight
Medora increased her lead, Doubtful lying 'second, Wee
Nell third, and Cockatoo next; the others, headed by Long-
ford, being close up. Little or no alteration occurred in the
order of running until they entered the race-course, where
Cockatoo and Longford gave way to The Tumbler, who
shortly afterwards joined the two leaders. The three ran a
good race hoine, Medora winning easily by a length and a
half, three lengths between the second and third ; Long-
ford finished fourth ; Cockatoo next ; the others walked in.
Longrange came to grief at the fence beyond the post and
rails, where The Dane fell.

OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE EIGHT-OARED
RACE.

The dreary period of long rows and tedious practising by
each of the University crews in their respective homes has
at length terminated, and will be succeeded by a cheerful
week on the Putney waters, where they will be visited by
troops of friends, and their doings over the course will be
watched with interest both by friends and foes. Oxford,
who was to have rowed over the course on Saturday, March
16, will, as usual, put up at Mr. Kirby's, White Lion, and
the Cambridge crew, which was to arrive the same evening
will keep at the Star and Garter, as before, and will make
their first exhibition in public on the afternoon of Monday.
Both crews will probably row up on Monday and Tuesday
with the flood, and on Wednesday Cambridge will race from
Mortlake against a crew of picked Waterman in the early
morning, while on Tuesday or Thursday a choice eight of
the London Roviing Club have kindly offered to give them
a start or two, which we conclude to mean a hardish race
for some considerable distance, much to the pumping of the
out-of-training side. The race, as most people are now
aware, will take place on Saturday, March 23, starting
from Putney at about 11.30 a.m. The usual number of
steamboats will accompany the race, and among the
names of those who have chartered for the speculation will
