A CHAMPION'S EXIT.
. Prince F.opte has probably ended his racing career. When competing -. at Randwick it was; clearly observed that something -was amiss with the horse, and though his trainer took him over to with the hope of being able to get him m good fix for hisbig engagements, some people \ who saw him run m the Randwick Plate never gave him much hope of ever regaining liis old form. Last month, after doing a gallop at Flemington, he was observed to be bleeding from the nose, and a subsequent" veterinary examination resulted m liis owner being advised to 'scratch him from his vengageynerits, though m ail probability the trainer /"would also have :[ acted. ' similarly. Prince Foote was one , of the best horses that eyer raced m Australia, and he' must haye won for his owner m bets and stakes an enormous sum of money. ; • ■_
