THE OAKS.
[Per Press Association.] LONDON, June 4. At the Epsom Summer Meeting to-day the Oaks resulted as follows :— THE OAKS STAKES, of 4500 soys; the second horse 400 sove, and the third horso 200 soys from the stake ; for thrte-year-old fillies. One mile and a half. Mr T. Jennings's eh f Limasol, by Poulet — Queen of Cyprus, 9st 1 Lord Eosebery's b f Chelandry, by Goldfinch— llluminata, 9st 2 Lord lillesmere's b f Fortalice, by Fitzsimon— Zareba, Ost S [Chelandry probably started an extremely strong favourite, while Limasol, who ran three times as a two-year-old without winning a race, was, in all probability, quite an outsider. The winner is a half-sister to Cypria, who finished a dead heat with Red Eyes for the Cesarewitch of 1893.]
