SPORTING.
THE PINAL TIP. [By the Cranky Tout.] So Morton you have got the stand. It’s not a thing to quiz ; But you and I for once should have a little drop of fiz. I mean to give you all the tips, *0 straight as I’m a sinner, But time is short, and I must start, and make a good beginner. The Free Handicap starts off the game; I guess that I can pick it, For though the field is large and good, I’m Bare that 1 can nick it, The mare Farewell who, fed on beans, well crushed by one Treleaven, ’Tis said she did her final spin in just 1.47. The Welcome Stakes comes next. The field a right good horse, It always is in speedy sprints over a six furlong course. Now Hereford's pair, gay Nonsense and tho beautiful Siesta, Are bad to beat, but Nonsense will I feel be sure to best her. But here’s my tip, and though in truth there’s few would ever think it, Tho first to catch the judge’s eye will be Patsey’s blooming Trinket. But, what about tho Derby ? Of course you want to know Where the horses will be found in this interesting race; And who the three will surely be to run into a place. Now, if you want to make a pile, and keep
yourself from harm, Go, back the golden chesnut, the speedy sou
of Charm. The Dauphin, though his lineage’s good, and ho a first-class goer, Will meet his fate half up the straight, and bo liokod by Hinemoa. The O.J.C. is easy work, and now a certain tip! The horse that swings his legs about, the well-tried constant Grip. Of his more immediate followers, I think it quite absurd To tip anything but Libeller, and Lady Emma third.
