The Shanghai Champions is the cighth race on the card to-day. Wheatcroft is considered a likely candidate but although the animal has done well in the past, he will be extremely lucky if he should manage to win against Bright Lnd and Busy Bee. The Inst named was beaten by Wheatcroft on Monday over a slow 1 miles but bas re- deemed himself by his record- breaking performance yesterday. Bright Lad, however, looks to be the thing to follow. He apparently did not race yesterday nor did Wheatcroft Banquet.

LONDON, May 6. Being the first classic race of the senson, and on ace at of its im portant bearing on the Derby, millions are eagerly awaiting the result of the Two Thousand Guineas

таке.

"Old racegoers call it the Junior Derby," a sort of try-out for the big event at Epsom on June Many good judges of horses, and those who are very shrewd at the betting game, frequently pick the Deyby winner from to-morrow's fold. They note especially the co- dition of the horses in the paddock, besides, of course, any incidents in running likely to bear on the Derby itself.

There is however a good deal of difference between the two races. Even should the identical field run at Epson, the placings might be easily reversed, owing to the differ eat nature of the two tracks, and the distance in the Derby being four furlongs longer. A good sprin- ter which can just stay out a mile, and allowing for good racing trim, could win to-morrow's event, but it takes a stayer and what the jockeys eall a handy" animal to win at Epsom
