TO-DAY'S RACING
J
AT THE VALLEY.
(By Rapier.)
HE second day of the Easter
Race Meeting at the Valley to-day will be
featured by the meeting of Trentbridge, the Derby winner, and Diana. Bay, Mr. Dun- bar's crack, in the Easter Stakes over a mile.
Mr. V. V. Needa, the former Shanghai jockey who rode Trent- bridge to victory over Jack in the Derby, is conâdent of winning to-day's race. And I think he will. Mr. Frost will be up on Diana Buy, but he will find it dißcult to stave off Mr. Necda's challenge in the last quarter, the Bay being a one- puced pony.
