Sir Joseph Hawley declared to win with Pero Gomez.
Belting--11 to Bon Pero Gomez, 4to 1 agst Wild Oats,
5 to 1 agst Heather Bell, and 100 to 8 agst Ryshworth,
For a few staides the lot ran in a line, but Fordham,
forcing the pace with Elthus, soon showed in advance of
Heather Bell and the favourite, who were head and head
on his whip-hand, whilst on the higher ground Wild
Oats lay well up, Ryshworth following at his
quarters. When they had fairly settled down
to their work, both Monkshood and King Cop-
hetua were outpaced. Elthus maintained his lead
until they arrived at the crest of the hill, when he
gave way, and Pero Gomez, at the commencement
of the rails, took half a length lead, but in a few strides
further Wild Oats shot up to him, the pair quitting
Heather Bell and the remainder of their competitors as if
they had been standing still. About 100 yards from home
Wild Oats, although running as if in trouble—with
his mouth open and his tongue hanging out—got
the best of the struggle, and oFtained an advantage of
nearly a neck. Within a dozen strides of the chair, how-
ever, Adams, by most determined riding, and Pero Gomez
by undoubted pluck, got on equal terms with the Duke of
Hamilton's colt, and after a magnificent display of horse-
manship on hoth sides, one of the finest and Most exciting
races ever witnessed ended inns dead heat: Ethus was
nest; beaten four lengths from the pair, whilst Heather
Bell'finished about a head iii the rear of Mr. Padwick's
colt; Ryshworth was fifth, anti King Cophetua next ;
Monkshood trotted in several lengths behind Sir Joseph
Hawley's second string. Pero Gomez afterwards walked
over and divided the stakes with Wild Oats. /lett value
of the stakes, £1,300.
