To a holder of two Shares the odds are 20 to 1. Each member for every Share names a horse, which will be written across the duplicates kept by the Company. Those numbers having the winners on them will be put together; the first three drawn will receive the prizes as above. The same will be repeated with those having the Second written on them ; and again also those with the Third,— forming three distinct drawings, which will of course be drawn after the winners are declared. In the event (in either of the three cases) of only two members naming the placed horses, the three prizes will be divided between them ; if only one (in either of the three cases), he will receive all three prizes due to whichever he named, Ist, 2nd, or 3rd. A subscriber, say holding three shares, can name the one horse three times, or three different horses — one to each share. N.B. — Two Guineas (independent of the Sweep) will be given to the member first naming the winner.
