Knight orthe garter, 4 yrs, 9st 81b (inc. 121 b extra) was
weighed for by Custance, and the number was hoisted
simultaneously at the Cesarewitch Stand And the betting
ring.

The betting opened at 6 to 4 on Knight of the Garter
300 to 250 and 6 to 5 being laid agst Lady Coventry, but in
a minute 6to 5 was laid on " The Knight." After being
pp some five minutes the number of Captain Machell's
horse was taken down, some "arrangement" having been
come to between Mr. M. Dawson and the captain. Then
as much as 15 to 1 was WI on Lady Coventry. Imme-
diat,,,ly the number of "The Knight" was taken down the
hardship which the withdrawal imposed on the book-
makers who had laid against Lady Coventry was repre-
sented to the Duke of Newcastle, Lord Wrestntorlan•l, Mr.
Savile, and Admiral Rous by Mr. Steel and others, who
stated that the proceeding was unfair. Mr. Steel requested
Mr. Savile to withdraw his representative, and on that
gentleman stating that he would be fined £2O if he did so,
Mr. Steel offered to pay the fine. Mr. Savile consented to
withdraw Sister to Maid Marian, and Jemmy Grimshaw,
who was present on his. hack, was despatched to tell
Hammond Ant, to run. The pair wore started, however,
before Jemmy got half way, and though he called on the
riders they did not stop. Lady Coventry waited on Sister
to Maid Marian till rising the Bushes Hill, where she
came away, winning easily by a length and a half.
