Soonafter Prism was beaten, and Isobar and Barberine had had enough, leaving Caltha, Eastern Emperor, Bendigo, and St. Gatien in pursuit of the leader. The last-named, howeverl was never approached,'and won very easily by a couple of lengths, while a fine race ensued for second place, which Bendigo gained by a neck from, Eastern Emperor ; Caltha was fourth, the same distance behind the latter, and a head in 'front of St. Gatien, who was clear of- 'Clochette, sixth, Thebais seventh, Prism eighth, 1 !
