Betting 1.-; ti~ I an Bessy: The Viscount colt, rode by
Nelson, went off at the woad of command at strong run-
ning, with the filly close at his hat:metes; and so they con-
tinued to the rails, Tommy Lye having hard wok to keep
Bessy behind ; here, however, he gave her a little latitude,
and slit Went boldly ep to the horse, challenged, got the
lead, mending and slatkeniug her pace ad libitum, so as
just to keep enough front to yid, which she aid by half a
length, without whip or spur being ttsed, leaving off as
iresh e she began, and quite full of running. Lye was
pulling bard at tier a, treat Ott of the distance, to keep her
at moderate running, as she lit 4 to run in another race.

Betting-5 to 2 agst Netherby, 4to 1 agst Stotfortb,
6 to 1 agst the winner, 6 to 1 agst Sir E. Dodsworth's,
and 5 to 1 agst Lord Milton's f.
After many tedious false starts, not unusual to 2-yr,oldl,
Stotforth came of in front, all the others close at his heels,
with the exception of the winner, who, through restive-
ness, was behind them all, however she soon recovered her-
self, and got next to Stotforth, with Sir E. Dodsworth's
and Netherby next to her, the others pretty well plated, to
within 100 yards of the rails, where of them gave
way altogether ; these four then made Alf teresting race,
the filly getting a-head at the rams, thecolt watching her
with the intention of taking up the running in case she
failed, or the others endangered her lead; as it was clear
he was held in, and could have won if required. The filly,
however, won cleverly by three quarters of a length. Sir
E. Dodsworth's and Netherby made a desperate but ineffec-
tual attempt to get up. The winner was rode by T.
Shepherd, Stotforth by Templevnan, Sir E. Dodsworth's
by Johnson, Netherby by Scott, Wanton c. by James Ro-
binson, Marcella by Lye, Dora by Edwards, Mr. Cromp-
ton's by Goodison, and Zingara by Nelson.

Colonel King's Bessy Bedlam
Mr. Bower's b. dv Vane by Reveller
Lady

Lord Milton's ch. Slut, by Tramp 3
Lord Scarborough's b. by Reveller, Byram's dam
4tol on Bessy, and 10 to 1 against any other. Lady
Vane led off at good sound running, Bessy behind, Slut
third, and Lord Scarborough's last, and so they ran till
near to the ropes. Bessy then challenged, and a sharp race
ensued, but at the grand stand it was evident that she had
this race as completely in hand as the first, and she won it
easy by two or three lengths. Lord Scarborough's was
beat early, and Lord Milton's when within the rails. We
are quite satisfied that Bessy Bedlam was not any thing
near the top of her speed in either of her races; in fact,
she scarcely went faster than a good watering gallop. She
was rode by Garbut, Lady Vane by Johnson, Slut by Lye,
and Lord Scarborough's by Nelson.
