HANDICAP HURDLES. Zulu went away with the lead and cleared the first hurdles several lengths of Mountain Deer, Oribbage .keeping in the rear. At the second hurdle Mountain Deer ran off, and Cribbage then went for Znlu, the pace being very slow, both horses jumped very well, and on passing the judge, Zulu was leading by about six lengths, Power thou waited for Cribbage to come to the front, but Winteriughara knew too muoh to allow his horse to lead, feeling, muoh safer to follow. The pair kept well together for the seoond round, and as they cleared the second hurdle from home, simultaneously loud ories of " Cribbage wins" wore heard on all sides. The jumping of Mountain Deer was grand never once touching his hurdles, and had he not baulked at the seoond hurdle, must have won. At the last jump Zulu bored on to Cribbage, and drove bim nearly off the course, This being done so near the hurdle, it caused Cribbage to fall, and Zulu won easily, with Mountain Deer second.

A protest was entered by tho owner of Cribbage against Zulu for jostling, and Mr Sheath, owner of Zulu, said his impression was that Power was unnecessarily interfering with Cribbage, and when he taxed Power with it he said he was only running wide to get a place. Power was fined five pounds, and Mountain Deer declared the winner. The Stewards and others thought that the owner of Zulu had acted so fairly that he ought not to be a loser, and mado a collection amounting to .£l4.
