THE GREAT ST LEGER.
The paramount importance of this Stakes will be our
excuse for taking it before the Two-yr-old Stakes, and for
going more into detail than usual. On reference to the
history of the St. Leger from its commencement in 1776,
we do net find any race which has. brought out so many
first Tate horses, or which, from the excellence of their
public running, has approached so Nearly to a certainty of
being carried off by one of the principal favourites. As
for the Derby, the sporting world has long been convinced
that the prize was for one of three or four, and thus has
speculation been less extensive than would otherwise have
been the case, for there has been as much timidity evinced
in backing outsiders as in laying against the cracks. The
performances of Velocipede, the Colonel, and Bessy Bed-
lam, have been remarkably good, each having done so
much as to give them every claim to support, at the same
time that it rendered it more difficult to form a decisive
opinion of their comparative merits. Velocipede and Bessy
have won oftener than the Colonel ; but it has all along
been notorious that Velocipede was to be feared in his legs,
and which have only been kept in trim by the unusually
wet season. The Colonel has on all occasions run a very
superior horse, and we consider that although defeated,
his running for the Derby was as much deserving of praise,
as the most decisive victory of either of the other fa-
tourites. Moreover, he is of a stout and lasting breed,
having in this respect a decided call of Velocipede, for the
Blacklock horses generally are speedy, but not strong; and
in this respect we should say that Bessy Bedlam is also
before him. The doubt expressed about the Colonel was,
that he was deficient in speed. Ballad Singer's running
has been rather contradictory than otherwise, having per-
formed indifferently last year, and very well this. With
the exception of Cambridge, none of the others have done
any thing to entitle them to a classification with the fa-
vourites. The betting has from the beginning been con •
fined to three or four, the greatest party being those who
supported Velocipede, who is in the same stable as the Co-
lonel, and of whose respective merits they were of course,
enabled to form a pretty correct opinion : this party was
composed of most of the great legs, who having Veloci-
pede and the Colonel, had nothing to fear but Bessy Bed-
lam ; at least we have understood they thought of no other•.
The backers of Bessy Bedlam were to be found amongst
the nobility, who stood upon her to a very large amount,
and certainly with great show of reason.
These remarks were made on a review of the perform-
ances of the favourites, and before the event : nor does
such event in any degree controvert them.
The new betting rooms were last night crowded to suf-
focation, and business to a large amount was transacted,
the odds varying repeatedly, the Colonel at last having
the call. This morning business was resumed, and conti-
nued till just before the start, when the odds were settled
thus •

3 to 1 agat Mr. Petre's Colonel
7 to 2 agst Mr. Armitage's Velocipede
4 to 1 agst Lord Milton's Ballad Singer
10 to 1 agst Colonel King's Bessy Bedlam
14 to 1 agst Mr. Theakaton's Jour des Noces
16 to 1 agat Lord Scarborough's Cambridge
35 to 1 agst Major Yarburgh's Belinda
High odds agst any other.
At the time appointed for the start, the horses and
jockies were all at the post, every thing being conducted
with an attention to precision that cannot be too highly
praised. The start was free from those perplexities which
were the cause of so much complaint last year. The race
was thus :
The Great St.-Leger Stakes of 25 soya. each, fur tbree-
yr.old oohs, Bst. 61b. fillies, Bst. Sib. St. Leger Coarse.

At starting, the pet, Bessy Bedlam, went in front, with
Jour de Noces, Velocipede, and Mr. Gascoigne's colt next

her, and the others well in at their heels ; they spun along
at a rattling pace without any change of importance till
they got near to the Red House, and there poor Bessy gave
evident symptoms of being tired, the ground being heavy.
At the Red House, Velocipede went a-head of her ; the
Colonel, Belinda, and Cambridge, at the same time got in
front of the others, and in an instant were at the haunches
of Velocipede ; the struggle then became very severe ; hnt
when they were about one hundred yards of home, it was
evident that the Colonel was to he winner, for at this
point he went right a-head, maintained his lead in grand
style, and won the St. Leger easily by two very honest
lengths Velocipede was next to Belinda; and Cambridge
fourth, but the Judge placed only the winner and Belinda.
The decision was received with acclamations by one of
the most numerous and brilliant assemblages ever seen on
a race-course. Mr. Petre also won the St. Leger last
year, and has a very promising stable for the next ; he nets
by the stakes the sum of 1900/. after deducting 1001. for
Lis own lot. The result of the race, whilst itproves the
great superiority of the Colonel, must be looked upon as a
very fortunate occurrence for his rider, Scott, independent
of all pecuniary advantage ; for opinions have been expres-
sed respecting his manner of riding the same horse for the
Derby, which have militated against his reputation as a
skilful rider ; for our own parts, we think it is but a bare
act of justice to state that no horse was ever better jockied
than the Colonel was this day by him, at the same time we
are satisfied he did his best for him at Epsom. It is
worthy of remark that Belinda was beat at Pontefract, the
week before last, by Cambridge, who now runs fourth.
Excepting the horses specified no others had a chance.
The horses were rode thus :—The Colonel, by Scott ;
Belinda, by Nicholson ; Velocipede, by Wheatley ; Cam-
bridge, by Nelson; .lour de Noces, by Robinson; Louisa.
