Burnish'.;was. responsible for -a fine performance jrvwinning the Flying-Handicap She did not begin well, and had to make up a good deal of ground to be in a handy position at the turn.

The Cup 'was a fast-run race, and Fersen won like agood one. He was last early, but moved up going down the back and tackled the pacemaker, Red Mantled, just before reaching the straight, ile was m charge a furlong from home, and held off Hazoor and Cherry King to score by half a length. Hazoor was always handy, and came home solidly; the lace should approve him. Cherry King was a little unlucky He was nicely placed most ot the way, but became pocketed at the three furlongs, and could not get clear until well , nt o the straight. Red Manired f acted as pacemaker, but was done as SOO?£ S Fersen collared him. Aga Khanand i*omp were never dangerous. Tahurangi was out of his class. INGENUITY ALL THE WAY.
