to 1 agst the Miss Sellon colt, and 100 to 4 agst any other.
A delay of fully twenty minutes, caused by the fractious-
ness of the horses, preceded the start, which was at length
effected on equitable terms. Amadou was the quickest on
her legs, and for about half a dozen strides had a slight
advantage, when Lelia on the left, and Hilda on the sight
of the French filly, got level with her, Lelia in a few strides
taking a slight lead in the centre of the course. La Rose
and the-Guile colt were prominent, The Rajah on the ex-
treme right, with Miss Bagot and Woodbine, being in
front of the others. The first to give way was La Rose,
and her place was taken by the Guile colt, who was now
almost level with Lelia, Amadeu, and Hilda, the first named
having only a very slight lead. They ran in this order to
the distance, when Hilda and Amadeu quitted their oppo-
nents, and the first named being immediately afterwards
in difficulties, Sir Chas. Ruhout's filly won very easily by
three lengths ; Lelia was third, beaten a similar distance
from the French filly; the Rajah fourth, the Guile colt
fifth, Miss Bagot sixth, La Rose seventh, Musk eighth,
Masquer ninth, Workman tenth. Many lengths behind
came Woodbine and the Miss Sellon colt, the latter being
beaten off. _ _ _ _
