We did intend to charge a fee of Ten Guineas all round this season, but from representations made by sonic of our friends that they were unable to pay so much for Hack meres, we havo decided to reduce the fee on the following scile, viz ; : — Ist Class Thoroughbreds, Ten Guineas. 1 Class C, Seven Guineas.
