proclaimed the defeat OF Grimston who, up TO TINS
time going so well, but who now stopped as N he
had been shot, just inside the distance The Palmer
at once took his place and the race became match
between him aud Knight OF the Garter. II has al
ways been argued by the opponents OF Sir Josephs
horse that he cannot stay but far from this being
the case, II was now perfectly evident that he was
wearing his opponent out BY this very quality. As
they got front OF the stand he gained on him inch
by inch, and amid loud cheers passed the
post half o length In front OF Captain
Machell's horse. Tribune finished length behind

Paul Jones was nth, q neck In advance OF Lady

Value OF the stake 81, OBS. The performance OF The
Palmer was remarkably good one, considering his
heavy weight and the fact that ut the post he was
kicked SO severely by Grimston and trembled so
violently afterward that his jockey had serious
thoughts Of not allowing him to take part In the
race. Knight OF the Garter had the misfortune 10
occupy the place he held in this very last year
ceedingy well with such weight. II Is the opinion
OF many that II Tribune had not been unfortunate
IN being shut out 50 long he would have won, az he
ran WIN great gamcness and finished In excellent
style, but In my opinion the pace was too much for
MN throughout. 0rimston evidently cannot stay,
and the performance OF Paul Jones proved
what 1 nave always believed, that he IL an
overrated morse. The result was Of course great
blow to the ring, for the winner has been a ire
