He ran a gallant race.

The first sensation, which brought the enormous crowd gasping to its foot, was when Golden Miller, one- time hot favourite and a former

winner

of the Grand National, repeated his last year's debacle and fell at the! first fence. His Jockey pluckily re mounted and rode furiously, but Golden Miller refused a couple of fences later.

Then Avenger, who was installed the favourite by astonishing last- minuto backing, sorting at 100 to| 3, fell soon after Golden Miller in the first round, when lying third, und broke his neck. He had to be destroyed.

The final disaster came to the young! former
