SPORTING. (PER PRESS AGENCY.)
' ' CHRlsterfußCH, Bth May. "Sinbad" in the Weekly Press has the following notes : — i "Mr. Lance's handicap for the Grand Natimal 19, L think, a very successful one. The Victorian Loan Hand heads the list with 13it 71 b, and though, from. his performance, I should consider him decidedly a stone better horse than The Agent, I can scarcely see how, in justice to tho other horses engaged, Mr. Lance could have put less than 12st 71b on Mr. Butler's horse. Oa the whole £ think The Agent, Grey <Mlbus, I van hoe, and Fakir best. In reference to tbe above, I would remind owners" that sweepstakes and acceptances are due on Saturday, tbe 17th instant, while the i unedin entrances must be in the hands of Mr. Sydney James before 8 p in. on the same day."
