The london Post of the I4ths inst. af
ter having given the names of the horse
entered for the above named races, give
the following account Of the cxeitins
scenes incident to them.
- Mr.-Fen Broeck, Prieress= has
length shown herself equal to the task o
heating the English horses on their ow,,
turf. 1t has been the opinion of ou,
Isportsman,Tt that Mr.. Ten Broeck's horses
have the capacity to match the Englisf
horses which have been beating them, bu,
that in consequence of their -being-unac:
customed TO running upon the turf they
were not able to. make their full speed
This last race looks like there was. some
thing in the belief, and it will encoura ore
the owner of the American horses to keen
them ne m good training for future races.
The subjoined is from the Post: -.
