The latter soon pressed on the leaders and collared them before reaching the Straight, when a tiglit race Sombrero maintained the lead until nearly home, but condition soon told ite tale, and the favorites were to the fore Dearing the Stand, Temptation made. » somewhat irregular course, Mr Toots stick
