ance OF Felfs colts here and IN England,
no horse can boast Of better or more
progeny. They will be, IN my
opinion, rerg distinguished on the turf
and under The saddle--yes, every where. |
The colts Of the imported horses are win
ming all our stakes in the best possible
AWE and manner. Out of 10 races IN
which the imported horses colts have
started, they have won races; and bul
for the uukind running oil colt, wonio
have won the other race. There were ~
or 80 subscribers 10 the large Petersburg
s,akes-of these there were or by our
horscs-,he rest go or upwards) by
American Stations. The colts by our
horses run Isl, I'd, Sd and Alb, 10 The race
won at heats, track oery heavy, ana
time good each heat II is allowed by
all parties to be the best race ever made
over the course. There were II subscri-
beers TO the other stake al New Markets
| by our horses. and by natives, won al
| . heats by Major Ridley's colt, [by an
Imported horse, in I'm. 53s and I'm. 52s
uery easily The colts by imported hor
ses, run 10 the large stakes al Lawrence
Vile, $500 entrance, were placed Isl, 10,
and Sd in the race--there were as many
or more natives than colts by imported
horses. AT pelfield they won 8 stakes IN
FIRST rate time and style-repeating in 2
| of them in I'm. and 52s, and imported
colts contending for Q Of the races 10
one of these stakes there were suhscrI
bers, and only one colt by our horses
! qualified 10 start. Now you bave IN
