With the first of the Spring handicaps successfully run off, race fans are concentrating their atten- tion in trying to discover the probable winner of the blue riband of the British turf-the Derby-is rather freely and naturally made ? which will be run off on the Epsom track on June 3.
Trainers throughout the country have been severely handicapped since the commencement of the flat racing season by the hard state of the gallops, the result of a very severe winter. Many trainers sur- mounted this difficulty by sending several of their animals to the sea ahore, where
they were ad- vantageously galloped on the sands and their limbs strengthened in the Leneficial ses, waters.
