Lord Monck gave 2200 guineas for a brown colt by Cameronian, the; Two Thousand Guineas and Derby winner, out of Sword Play, from the same consignment. AGA KHAN AS VENDER. Nineteen yearlings submitted by H.H. Aga Khan occasioned keen competition. The great size to which his stud has grown is shown by the fact that he is now a vender on a bigsscale.

Butters, acting on behalf of Lord Portal, for 4000 guineas. He is a big bay with tremendous quarters, plenty of quality, and is an ideal type of Cup horse in the making. The same trainer acquired another Foxlaw colt out of Celandine for Lord Portal at 3300 guineas from the batch submitted by Lord St. Davids. From the same consignment T. L.
