The style in which this race was run proved that little judgment
was exercised in the handicapping. To call it a race would be a
mockery. Hindostan had it all his own way, tailed them along in
good style, and won in a canter; rode by Pavia, Constantine by S.
Mann, Burlesque by Baker, Manola by Holloway, Maresfield by
J. Day, and Pollio by Weatherall.
Immediately after the race the winner was purchased by his
