This was the best race of the daYlr Ad the last
'heat in particular was so admirably dontested, that it
would not have disgraced the far-famed plikas of
Newmarket- Weaver made an excellent, push ant
the post, but it was too late to win. Mr. Ladbroke's
colt, by Eagle, won the Woodcote Stakes'easily.--
Mr. Ladbroke was Steward, and owing to his. udi.
cious management Jul& polite attention, every thing
went off with propriety, and no accident whatever
occurred.
In such request are post chaise*, barouches add
carriages of all kinds for Epsoth Races to-day, that
ten guineal were given for a chaise and four. The great
attraction was Wizard against the field.
But the rage for four lades is s 6 universal, that •no
man of the least fashion can make a call at his next
door with a pair. A man may get along the road,
indeed, with two horses, but he must have a pair of
leaders to raise the dust.
