TYpxaJUs.—This horse, who has been a prominent
favourite for the Two Thousand Guineas and Derby, has
not, it appears, broken down. His lameness is said to have
been produced through a nail injuring the frog of his foe
while at exercise. His chance, therefore, for the Two
Thousand is considered to be a hopeless one.
