I refor to the Prince of Wales Handicap, in which ho is weighted ab Bat 21b, and is asked to give 51b to a well-performed mare like Ida, who on their last meeting pave him] lib and beat him by half a length. At the same meeting eho won four races in succession. Tbis iR eaeo enouijh without eoing further. How does he come to tho conclusion ? Ingorina's former ownor had tho samo cause for complaint last eoasoa, although ho waa raced out consistently. Id ia scant) encouragement) to me on my accession to the turf, and the 11103b probable outcome will be my disposal of the horso, giving Mr Evett tho first offer.—l am, etc., Stuart Lyeli..
