THE RACE AND THE RESULT.

No delay occurred in the weighing stand; the jockeys
were soon out and mounted, and Mr. M'George lost no time
in getting them off. After Godding's horses had made a
demonstration by galloping up and down the course to-
gether, the 16 starters walked quietly to the post, and the
lot got away at the first attempt. The first on his legs was
Sawcutter, who held a pretty good lead, Mr. Ten Broeck's
two, Satellite and Optimist, and The Brewer being next,
Herne a long way in the rear. They had not travelled far,
however, before Man-at-Arms rushed to the front, and he
led past the stand, his immediate pursuers being The Brewer,
Optician, Bridegroom, Satellite, and Chere Arnie. Man-at-
Arms increased his lead on entering the Dee side of the
course, but The Brewer soon drew up to him, and the lot,
with the exception of Herne, who was a long way behind,
took pretty close order. Satellite then showed prominently
in the race, but as the horses passed the stand a second
time Wallace went a .head, and he was followed by
The Brewer and First Lord. On going round the
Dee side Ben Webster took the leading business, and
the first and second finished the race between
them, Ben Webster winning by two lengths. The second
was 10 lengths off the third, and the fourth finished just
a-head behind him. Satellite was a bad fifth, Optimist
sixth, Flirtation seventh, Wallace and Weatherbound lead-
ing the next lot. The meeting was completely successful.

post, when Quiver and Count 8010 passed him, and lei up
to the entrance into the straight, where they were beaten,

places. At the distance the favourite was slightly in ad-

second and third ; Creeper was fourth, the others beaten a
long way, Quiver coming in last.
