Tho usual delay afc the post was exhibited, but on this occasion it was principally occasioned by tho restiveness of Countryman, who repeatedly broke away, and resolutely refused to join his horses. At last Mr. M'Georgo was ablo to lower his signal, but to an indifferent start, by which Tibthorpo (an indifferent beginner) was most affected. AVhen fairly settled in their placos, tho running was taken up by Cymbal in the centro of tho course, his colours being clearly seen in tho van as they carno streaming over the brow of tho hill, having Countryman on his left, the pair being followed by Ladas, Morna, and Heather Bell on the far side, !

At tho diatance Cymbal's lead gradually decreased and as they neared the inclosure he was headed by the Count's colt and Tabernacle who singled themselves out, and ran acloso and exciting race homo, Typhous who ran the longeât just winning at last by a neck ; Cymbal and Plaudit' who finished with a. dead heat for third houours, were' two lengths in their rear ; Countryman was fifth Cerdagne sixth, Moorland seventh, Tibthorpo eight' Old Sam ninth, and Calypso next.

They ran thus for some fifty or sixty yards, when Fordham, having sot thom going, took a pull at his horse and allowed Indian Ocean to tnko Iiis place at tho quarters of tho leader, tho pair being followed by John Davis, Capitaliste going on next with Chivalry, Paganini, and Cinderella lying up, next to whom were soon tho colours of Miss Sheppard, ltoundiug the turn of the course, tho leaders got closer together, and as they wont past the clump of trees at the milo post, John Davis and Indian Ocean wero seen racing togethor for the second place ; but on reappearing in sight ho had given way, and the two leaders, as they ascended tho hill, were a couple of lengths in advance of tho aged horse, close up with whom came Capitaliste, Cinderella, Paganini, Nightjar, and Miss Sheppard, with Sweet Sound gradually drawing towards the leaders. Half, way up the hill, Nightjar suddenly quitted hor rearward position and ran past her horses, and took a olear load at the T.Y.Ü. post; but when fairly round the turn for home she ''cracked," and as suddenly disappeared from her proud position, Ionia at the same time following suit, leaving Indian Ocean with the lead of John Davis. On reaching tho dip tho latter was beaten, and for a stride or two tho French representative became tho attendant of the leader; but he gradually gave way under the weight, and was passed by Paganini on the right and Miss Sheppard on tho left, the pair running together to tho distance, whore Capitaliste was done with. Sweet Sound afc this point ran up to the leaders, but as Kuddonly stopped, leaving tho issue with the three. Half-way up, Fordham, who had patiently waited with the heavy-weighted Paganini, now brought him to the quartors of Indian Ocean, and, getting the best of him in front of the stand, won a fine race by three-parts of a length ; Indian Ocean finishing half a length in advance of Miss Sheppard. Sweet Sound was fourth, Capitaliste fifth, Nightjar sixth, Rattlepate seventh, and John Davis, who pulled up lame next, Ionia, Cinderella, and Chivalry were tho last three tailed off.

Mr. "W. Nelson's Chowbacon, 3 yrs, "st 3)b(Jeffery)

Betting : Even on Sabinus, 2 to 1 agsfc Siderolite, 9 to 1 ngsfc Pate, and 20 to 1 agst Champion. Morna jumped away with n clear load for thc purpose of making a paco for her stable companion, who followed some dozen lengths in her track, closely attended by Pate, Champion, Ohawbacon, and Sabinus in the order we have given them for a quarter of a mile, when tho favourite drew into third place, in whioh position they ran down tho hill and round the ' clump." Hero Ohawbacon suddenly dropped into tho extreme rear, and on tho horses reappearing in sight. Morna was lu's solo companion, having relinquished her lead to Siderolite, who came up the hill clear of Sabinus, with Pate and Champion side by side, lying Tip to within half a milo from home. Hero Hibberd was seen hard upon the favourite who immediately afterwards lost his placo, and his defeat was at once hailed from the stand and enclosure with loud and prolonged cheers. Champion, at tho same time, having disposed of Pate, ran up to Siderolite, and when fairly in the bottom obtained ft slight load, which he retained, amidst tho greatest excitement, to the centre of the stand, where Wells made his effort, and, getting up in tho last stride, won ono of tho finest races over witnessed by a head only i Pate finished a bad third. Sabinus trotted in fourth, Morna was fifth, and Ohawbacon, who broko down,

last.
