An objection was made against Maid of Hertford, 

 that she only carried 81bs. extra instead of 51bs., 

 she having won a plate at Norwich, and the Hert-

 being on the terms of private races ; and secondly, 

 that the Herefordshire Stakes being a handicap, 

 he conceived that handicaps and matches were 

 always excused.
