THE FICHT FOR MARABOU
Lou Robertson has lost his Melbourne Cup winner Marabou. As the outcome of the recent sale Marabou has been moved a few hundred.yards away to thestabies of J. Holt—the stables that sheltered Heroic, Eurythmic, and other Turf celebrities. Mr. Andrew Robertson, who' bred Marabou, and sold him to the former owners for 2000 guineas, made a fight to retain the horse in his brother's stable,' but when the bidding rose to 5300 guineas; after commencing at 2000 guineas; he retired beaten. An extra 200 guineas secured Marabou for Mr. C. 8.-Kellow.who thus now also owns the: horse'that threatened to be the mahvw.f.a. rival in the autumn for Hall' Mark.'
