Kendal, on the rails, and Timpanetto ran side by side from Lord Lumley to the bend, when Timpanetto dropped away. Before reaching the distance Lord Lumley was beaten, and although Mischief came from the rear opposite the stand, the favourite shook her off, and won by two lengths ; half as far again between second and third. THE GKEAT EBOlt HANDICAP PLATE, Of 1000 s>ovs, by subscription ot 20 bovt. each. One mile and a-half. Lord Cadogan's eh Ii Mate, by Blandforrt— Gretna, ti yi-b, 8s(, 111b [car Bsfc 1211J] ...

At the third or fourth attempt Mat? jumped off in clear command of Clochette, Wavelet, and Bonaparte, of whom Wavelet, as soon as they had settled down, carried her colours to the fore from Bonaparte, Londonderry, and Clochetle. These were followed by Swillington and Master Sam, with Mate next and Cavalier last, to the mile-post. Here Wavelet had established a gap of three or four lengths from Bonaparte, Londonderry, and Master Sam, which trio wont on in a cluster from Clochette until half the journey had been accomplished, when Swillington broke a blood-vessel, and was quickly pulled up. xYs they approached the Middlcthorpe turn Wavelet began to compound, and Bonaparte having taken up the running, he was closely attended by Londonderry, the pair going on well ahead of Master Sam and Wavelet, with Clochette and Mate gradually creeping up. Before reachiiTg the bend Londonderry had shot his bolt, and for a few strides Master Sam headed Bonaparte, with Mate and Clochette now third and fourth. At the distance Bonaparte recovered possession from Master Sam, but he was himself running in trouble, as Mate had drawn up on his whip-hand full of go, and drawing away the moment he was allowed to do so, he won easily by two lengths from Bonaparte, who in turn saved second money by a neck from Clochette. > Time, 2 mm. 36 3-5 sec.

Rattlewings, on the inside, cut out the work from Grey Friars, and they thus ran clear of Gay Hermit to the bend, when he drew up on their whip hand. He then waited at their girths to the distance, when ho seemed to bo tiring under the weight, but he answered readily to Archer's call opposite the stand, and won a good race from Grey Friars by a neck ; a head between second and third. The Dovil to Pay, who lay in the heels of Rattlewings, was last all the way.

Armida made play from Cipollina and Goldsmith for a quarter of a mile, when the lastmentioned pair changed places, with King Monmouth bringing up the rear. Although the lot had stretched out with clear intervals immediately after passing Dinghouse, they took close order again along the woodside, where Goldsmith was pulliug double in attendance ( upon Armida, Londonderry having taken third place. They ran without further change until half a mile from, homo, when Goldsmith deprived Armida, of the opnnnand, but his bolt ■was soon shot, and Cip'ollina coming to the

front from the outside she took the rails berth and came round the bend in advance of Armida. At this poiut King Monmouth was handy to the pair, and going up to Cipollina iiiftide tho distance instantly settled her pretensions, and won easily by a length ; a bad third. Time, 3 mm. 13 2-5 sec.
