Plant's b f Queen of tho Earth. by Flying Fox — Lor.e.y, '9st . . 2 Sir J. Miller's b f Amitie, by Chaleureux . — La Sagesse.: 9st .... 3 (Cherry Lass was a fair performer as a two-year-old, though she was some distance behind the best of her age. : j.his season, however, she haa clearly established her right to be regarded as the best of the three-year-old fillies, as in addition to her Oaks victory she won the One Thousand Guineas a month ago. Neither Queen of the Eanh nor Amitie was in. the first flight among last season's two-year-olds.)
