The Aga Khan has sold Blenheim because he has had the horse for six years and he is satisfied with the amount of progeny which he has or quired, among them being Mahmoud, the winner of this year's Derby.

Blenhlem is now at the Aga Khan's stud in France, standing at a fee of £500. The sale of Blenheim has, however, produced a protest from Mr. Gerald Deane, the racing man- ager of Lord Astor's stud. Mr. Dranc has written to the Morning Post enforcing his protest. In the course of his letter he states:
