VISION. RELIGION. TINcE AND SIR DIXON. JR..
REWARD THEIR FOLLOWERS.
Racing at Brighton consists mainly OF a continual
series Of peculiar condolences which keen ito ma
irons guessing. officials, owners trainers ,ockevs
and horses appear to be under the mal,gn influence
OF the hypnotism Of uncertainty and the svenea,,s
that make Trilbys out Of the poor owners" The
nettors have become hardened and do not mind a
little thing like complete reversal OF form
welknown bettor said friend yesterday:

when excuses are SO plentiful that several bales
are kept in cold storage?'
Vision won the first race yesterday at odds OF
8 10 on by four lengths from Lancer who was

the conditions of 1914 seconds for the halfmie. AS
she carried III pounds. 1t might be to the ad-
vantage of bettors to remember Religions race OF
yesterday when she meets some OF the champions
that are swathed in cotton at Saratoga.
In the fifth race there much foul riding on
the backstretch which caused the stewards to In
vestigate and to place the blame where 1t properly
belonged. The result was that Welsh who rode
