Baron M. do Rothschild's b c Sardanapole, by PrestigeGoinma ... 1 La Farina, by Sans Souci II —Malatesta 3 Durbar 11., by Rabelais—Armenia 3

In an interesting finish. Sardanapole won by * nock from La Farina, with Durbar 11. four lengths away in third place. Time, 3ra 5s (a record).

Sardanapole won tho French Derby a fortnight back, on which occasion the English. Derby winner Durbar II formed one of the field. The fact of tho latter having been also worsted in the decision of tho Grand l'r:x ■'« Paris, would go to support the view that Durbar 11. was fortunate in not encountering Baron Rothschild's colt in the big race at Ep sora. Sardanapole is not engaged in the English. Si Lcgor so that ho will not have the opportunity of winning classic honours on tho English turf.
