Tor Mr.. Savllle, OF Ruford Abbey, in Nottingham
Jhlre, Kaiser is the best known TO the racing
public. This horse is now the favorite for the City
ana SUBURBAN, to be run for at EPSON shortly. He
Is a remarkably well made, strong built horse, with
grand action and undenIabe speed though not
quite so good as horse called Cremorne that won
the DERBY in 1872, and was only defeated by neck
by the great Prince Charlie for the Two Thousand
Guineas Kaiser is expected to occupy one OF the
leading positions for the City and Suburban. and
my own opinion Is, from what have seen or him,
he will be beaten far. Earl OF Dartrey, another
colt trained by Mr. GILBERT, Is q bay, with four
white ieet by the Earl out OF Rigolboche, and
consequently half brother in blood to Uremorne,
and, though not built such large scale, is a
very neat one and very game. and, as well, par
ticularly sound, which Is great consideration.

very sure to take a conspicuous part
In the Two Thousand Guineas, as many others in

stride, as was shown In Q gal!op or about q mile
this morning. Within the last lew days under
stand that he has been eased in his work; still
do not apprehend that he Will be prevented from
competing in all the races he is entered Tor. as he
Is such strong built one and possessed OF so
much speed that his chances OF being winner
are very great, Notwithstanding the doubtful
state OF his wnd, which have heard spoken Of I;
but as he dashed by me on the hillside ne seemed
10 be breathing as freely as any OF those who ac-
compan,ed him In the galop. Camoauo has
had 4 good winter and is altogether an
improved colt. From all 1 can learn his
defeat In the whtElebury Stakes last year
by Ecossais and Seymour arose more from want
or condition than any falling, ana his chance Tor
the Two Thousand Guineas 10 good; but for the
Derby think ne viii have q better chance, for by
that time ne will be thoroughly t 10 run and there
rs no particular reason why he should not stand

attention his trainer mas bestowed on him. He Is
engaged IN the International Handicap, and as he
