The Flemington training tracks are very heavy, precluding time tests, never* theleas Antasus beat Manton in a sterling gallop of a mile and a half in 2min 54secs. The latter is an unlikely starter. Richelieu did good sound work, and his owner ia extremely confident he will run well. For the Derby Rudolph haß the advantage of Dreadnought and may effect a surprise. LoyaJstone did a very bad gallop, perhaps for weighty reasons, Wycombe, Arsenal, and Meloa did some good sound pacing. Lonadale is being i quietly supported. Twenty four are left in the Cup, Melon, Carbine. Cardigan, Bravo, Lonadale, Oaklelgh, Pakeha, Chicago, Chaldean, Benzon, Chetwynd, Rudolph, Richelieu, Knight
