to divide the Stakes, and Brother to Lusher 

 walked over. 



Two questions were submitted to the stewards 

 of the Jockey Club, who decided first, that the 

 bets should be put together and divided in the 

 same proportion that had been agreed upon in re- 

 spect of the stakes; secondly, that Brother to 

 Lusher must carry extra weight on future occa- 

 sions as the winner of this race. 



Kemark: Achilles was equally liable to carry 

 extra weight as Brother to Lusher in any subse- 

 quent race where such penalty was imposed on the 

 winner of a sweepstakes. The act of walking 

 over makes no distinction where the parties divide 

 equally. 



12. A Set Lost not allowed to be Paid to a Third 

 Party. 



A admitted that he had lost 100?. to B ; but de- 

 clined paying it because he intended paying it to 

 C,-who had a claim on B for 100?. 



The stewards decided that A must pay the 100Z. 

 to B forthwith, as no transfer could take place 

 without the consent of both parties.
