At the bridge Sinbad got abreast of Pineapple and towards the hill obtained a lead of a length. At the rook, how- ever, Pineapple overlook Sinbad and they led into the straight, followed by Surprise and Blue Fire, Sinful being last, and in this order they passed the grand stand for the first time. At the bridge the ponies got closer together and later Pineapple drew out and got a lead of a length from Sinbad, who got abreast of Mr. Peel's pony at the rock, but at the village the latter drew away again. In the straight Blue Fire came up with a fine spurt, but it was too late, as Surprise was splendidly ridden and Pineapple was passed, Mr. Baxey's pony getting home by three lengths. The race for second honours was a very close one. Time-3mins. 53 Bees.

There was not much delay at the post and a fairly good start was made, Competitor being the first to get away, Foeman and White Rose being the next pair, with Heatherbell fourth, and the other two close up. Entering the straight White Rose got to the front, being followed by Foeman and Competitor, and on passing the grand stand for the first time White Rose was first, Heatherbell second, Competitor third, and Foeman and Boomerang next,. This was the order until within easy distance of the rock, when Heatherbell went abreast of White Rose and Boomerang ran neck and neck with Competitor. Before enter ing the straight Boomerang got into a grand stride and passed Competitor, but White Rose and Foeman kept a fine pace and a magnificent finish was witnessed between these three, White Rose getting home by only a head and Foeman and Boomerang running a dead heat for second honours.

Mr. Burey's Surprise, 10st. 12lbs. (Mr. Jones); 0. Naturally there was considerable excitement over this race for the championship and the speculation was exceptionally keen, the favourites being Red Fish, Roitelet, and among a few, Aspirant, who was looked upon as dangerous, providing he could stay the distance. There were two false starts and the ponies were very straggling when the flag fell. Going. up the hill Provost Marshall took a command- ing lead and made the running for Sinbad. The field, however, decided to hold back, trusting to the leader not being able to sustain his effort. Coming into the straight Provost Marshall increased his lead and Aspirant, who had up to now been pulled hard back, still remained second. Passing the grand stand for the first time Aspirant was second and Sinbad was going comfortably. The pace materially increased at the bridge and Aspirant now fell back, while Provost Marshall, doubtless contrary to expectations, still held the lead, but at the rock the field were rapidly over- hauling him. Red Fish, Roitelet, and Sinbad were the most prominent entering the straight and a short distance from home. Roitelet came to the front rapidly and won ....... amidst loud cheers by a length: a head between i second and third, Time-3 mins. 18) secs. (Mr. Jones)
