Betting—6 to 5 agst Bribery, 2 to 1 Danebury, 3 to 1 Punga, 5 to 1 Guy, 7 to 1 Cloth of Gold and Lara. Mangle broke away several times, thus causing considerable delay at the post, and at last they got away to a moderate start, of which Danebury and Bribery had decidedly the best. When they had settled to their work, Bribery and Danebury were making play in front, with Punga and Fallacy in close attendance. To these succeeded Isaac Walton, Lara, and Cloth of Gold in the order named, Guy Fawkes and Ellin King a length behind, Tattler and Phantom bringing up the rear. After passing (fie turn Danebury fell back beaten, the running being taken up by Bribery, followed by Punga and the Cloth, ‘Fallacy, with Guy Fawkes, who had materially improved his position, next, and the rest of the field already out of the hunt. Half way up the straight Punga seemed to die away, but coming again, answered Rowland’s call most gamely, and eventually won after a close race by half a length, Bribery second, and Cloth of Gold a moderate third.
