As' they came' down Choke Jade the field did not spread so'"much as usual, and Up Guards. carried on the running until reaching- the- gap, whea ho wa3 jomed by Survivor and Asterie.

Vladimir lost their and on the top of the hill.Flying Fox took second place, with Galopin Lassie Lady Ogle, and Chloris 11. in nearest ..pursuit. As they descenSed the hill the field completely broke up, , and with Flying' Fox gradually re-" ducing the command of Caiman, not more than a neck divided them in the Abingddn Mils Bottom, and tot a few strides we could look forward apparently to an exciting struggle. Another fifty yards, however, settled the question, as when the severity of the hill began to tell a tale Caiman steadily left Flyins Fox behind and won by a length and * half. At an interval of six lengths Galopin Lassie twa • third, with. Laity , Ojgle fourth, Ciiloris 11. fifth,- Vladimir sixth, Mansers seventh, and Boniface last.
