BIG STABLES AND THEIR HOPES.

For two season past, says the Sunday Times, the Whatcombe stable has won the Derby, but its chances of bringing off what is known as the hat trick in that race appear to be remote. Al though the Aga Khan, the chief patron of the establishment, loft nothing to chance when he entered eleven colta for the Epsom event, it so happens that the best of his two-year-olda, so judge by their public performan- cek, is a filly.

Is there a chance that Beck- hampton will score again this een- son. The stable shelters one of the best of his age in Lemnarchus, but there are doubts as to the stay- ing powers of this, son of Friar Marcus, and it is generally-expect ell that he will be scen to more advantage in the Two Thousand than over the longer journey at Epsom..
