On a reputed good gallop, Swimmin Belt (Captain Webb—Chatelaine) was made the medium of a plunge by a section of the public, but after running well for aboutjfour furlongs, she dropped back, and Seaman coming with a fast run led the field home by a couple of lengths* Swimming Belt should win a race soon over a shorter course. In the Flying Handicap Delamere got left at tho post and took no part in the race to the disgust of a large number of backers. Full Bate shot out of the barrier and soon had four or five i lead of his field. This ho maintained for half a mile, when Isolt gave a glimpse of her powers as a sprinter, but the effort and weight was too much for Multiform s daughter, and Full Bate passed tho post a winner by a length despite a final effort on McGombo’s part on Isolt. Full Kate is by The Officer, out cf Kimmer.
