Blink Bonny, Loyola, and Saunterer are the only three in anything like request of late for the Derby; beyond these and Sydney the enquiries have been by no means pressing. The latter at one time threatened to be a great favourite, but the feeling just at present is at best but a qualified one. The wagering of the North has of course been over the Newmarket Handicaps.

"There he sat, and, as I thought, expounding the law and the prophets, until on drawing a little nearer, I found he was only expatiating on the merits of a brown horse."-BRACEBRIDGE HALL. Fog was "the lord of all," when we affixed the imprimatur to our proof sheet last month, and then, with strange perversity, a day as beautiful as summer shone out on to Newmarket on the Thursday. The Glasgow Stakes once more showed us Nat first past Mr. Clarke in the colours of Colonel Peel on Messenger; and Bel Esperanza either has very little form, or was badly handled by Holmes, in the dead heat with South Western. Lord Zetland had not a horse at the meeting, and therefore the 100-sov. Handicap, which he had farmed for two years, made up No. 25 of Fisherman's winnings. Mincepie committed suicide by her ambitious effort to cut everything down from the post, and we may well ask where is the Artillery of Doncaster? Messrs. Bell and Morris took, it is said, such strong exception to Basham's riding of him in the St. Leger, that "Bob" did not ride for them this meeting, and Aldcroft sported the "orange" in his room. Such cavilling seems absurd to a degree, as certainly the Doncaster Stakes' running of Bonnie Scotland proved that Artillery had done well to finish level with him in the St. Leger, and the merest tyro could draw no inference in reason from Artillery's running in the Cup, where the pace was one of the most paltry things on record. In fact, the latter race shows that Artillery must be anything but the fast horse they thought him over a mile course, when he could not beat Fandango in a race which was only run in earnest from the Red House. John Osborne was, as usual, there or thereabouts in the Nursery. Madame Clicquot "went a clicker" successfully for her loved half-mile, and Malacca in the Brighton Handicap quiet failed to give Katherine Logie 26 lbs. This son of Ratan is a lengthy, strong, and plain horse, and was bred by a Mr. Sutton, of Colney, in Bucks. His childhood was a feeble one, as at fifteen weeks, while grazing in an orchard, he suddenly dropped, and could only be recovered by being carried bodily into a barn. When he did get up, he was totally unable to put one hind foot to the ground for many a day, and from that time his hind quarters seemed to waste. However, he recovered with care, and was sold with his dam for £200 with a moiety of his winnings in 1855-56, and in due course reached Hambleton. His maiden race was at Doncaster in autumn 1855, when he was fourth for the Revival, and he then ran second for an Optional Selling Stakes. Since that point his history becomes involved in mystery. He was condemned at Hambleton, and his breeder had the offer of him and his dam back at the same price, but declined it, and then some say that a purchaser was found at that price, and others, |
