. , A. Long. Start. ^
IN the report of the Trotting Matches in the Herald of Monday, the
chronicler of that .event says ,"
In the Metropolitan Handicap, ' Magic,' who was allowed 200 Fmndred yaTda
start, was permitted to get too'miicli ahead,and Mr. Orr then found some
difficulty Sri. making up the distance with ; Whisker.*"
We should think so. Eleven miles and a lialf are no joke to make
np. Seeing, however,, that tlie .whole distance.to be rim was only six
miles, "Magic" was the winnerwitli five and a half miles to spare
before ever he had started. His name is most appropriate.
