The pace^being moderate, Unseen was thi'ea or four lengths clear at the members' g*te, Cortegar going ou second again from Stewarton and Galtee More, with Peroe Neige next, and The Restored still acting as whipper-in. Th*y had enter-ad the straight before Unseen was challenged, aud the first to joiu issue was Galtee More, who carried his colouirf to the fore at the entrance to the rails, with 'Cortegar in the. m-ianwhile closing up. Below tbe distance Galtee More had cleared Unseen, andj allhoujh inclined perhaps to run "lazy," he won with plenty to spare by three lengths from Cjrtesar, who passed Unseen ia the last hlmdred yards and secured second place by a length and a-half.
