Match Extraordinary, or Horse for Horse.
Mr. Bacon's br. c. by Friday
31r. t.. Chatiton's cir. g. Galilro, let. 6lb 2
Betting-6 to 4on the winner.
The amount of the match not being set forth in the
calendar, we made inquiry, and found that it was got up
on the spur Of the momenthorse for horse ; to those who
knew particulars it created d lively interest from its novelty,
and after starting the interest became more general. At
starting, off went Friday at the top of his speed, G.:-
lileo following very close ; in this way they went the
greater part of the distance (a tulle), when Friday turned
out a complete jade, fell back, and was all but done up :
luckily, however, Galileo could not mend his pace in time
to take the advantage of his falling off, and Friday won it
by a neck. Had they gone three et four strides more,
Galileo must inevitably have won ; and if &loafer 100
yards, in a canter. George Dockery rode the winner, th'd
T. Farlow the loser.

The Surrey Stakes of 2b soya. each. Derby Course.
Captain Westenra's Conrad, 4 yrs, 7st. 91b 1

Mr. Charlton's Raymond, 4 yrs, 7st. 61b., ........ 5
One paid 15 sous., and seven the smaller forfeit of flee
sovs. each.
Betting-6 to 4 agst Logic and 2to 1 agst Fille de
Joie. They went off at a rattling pact, Fille de Joie i❑
front, Conrad a good second, and the others well in ; they
kept thlir places to the chains, where Logic, who had kept
a good look nut, got into good running, Fille de Joie giv-
ing way at the same time ; a short sharp struggle followed
between Conrad and Logic, the latter at one time looking
like a winner, but being ultimately defeated in high style
by three lengths ; the winner was rods by Pavis, Logic by
G. Dockery, Fille de Joie by F. Boyce, Forfeit by Conolly,
and Raymond by Farlow.
The Woodcot Stakes of 30 goys. each, h. ft. ; for 2-yr-old

Mr. Maberly's br. f. by Nicolo 4
Betting-3 to 1 apt Shepherdess, 3to 1 agat Dicky
Doke, and 6to 4 agst Eugene. After several false starts,
they were got together, and went off nearly abreast, Eugene
having a trifling front ; for the greater part of the ground
the race was beautiful, but towards the end, the others
giving way, Shepherdesa shot ahead of Eugene, and_ won
cleverly by two lengths, rode by S. Day, Eugene by John
Day, Dicky Dolus by young Buckle, and Mr. Maberly's by
F. Royce.

Mr. Mills's Lunacy, 4 yrs.
All the above started, but only two placed ; 2 to 1 agst
Helenus, and 3to 1 agat Lunacy. Some time Was lost in
getting the horses together; they went away at a good
pace, Lunacy taking the lead, followed by Vulcan, Jocko,
and Helenus, the others lying well up : so they went to
the hill, being in most beautiful position. At the mile
post Lunacy began to give way', and her place was imme-
diately supplied by Jocko, who kept the lead and the run-
ning to Tottenham corner : here rielenus came np to him
with Vulcan at his heels, and these three made a most inte-
resting race the remainder of the ground ; Helenus, how-
ever, went a head, when half-way within the distance, and
won by half a length in good style. A great deal of interest
was excited on this race, and the betting was heavy. The
winner was rode by Goodison ; Jocko, by Chapel ; Vulcan,
by Conolly; Tramp and Skim, by lads; Constance, byJ.
Day; the Rho f. by Baker; Lunacy, by Pavis; and
Constantine, by Farlow.
