of the Messrs. Ward's Antaeus (by Spectator) went to 

 America and stood there (at Jacksonborough, South 

 Carolina) in 1771, but has not become famous as a

Mr. WARREN, who won a Jockey Club Plate in 

 1761 with Sportsman (by Cade), is to be identified 

 with John Borlase Warren, Esq., of Stapleford, 

 Notts, whose second Christian name is traceable to 

 Sir John Borlase, of Cornwall. Mr. Warren was 

 plainly related (whether as father, uncle, cousin, or what 

 not) to the celebrated Admiral John Borlase Warren 

 (died 1822), who came in for the Stapleford property, 

 and whose name and profession (whether there be 

 any lineal descent or not) are combined in the person 

 of the present gallant Captain J. B. Warren, of H.M.S. 

 Rodney. The Mr. Warren of the Jockey Club was 

 one of the great guns of the Turf ; he bred not only 

 Sportsman (sire of the celebrated Sportsmistress, 

 dam of the great PotSos), but Careless (by Eegulus), 

 Fearnought (sent to America in 1764, by Eegulus), 

 and a colt by Cade (sent to America in 1762 and 

 there called Cade), all from the same mare, Silvertail 

 (by Mr. Heneage's Whitenose), also bred by him. 

 From the ' horsey ' point of view, at any rate, he was 

 a credit to the Turf, to the Jockey Club, and to his 

 horse-breeding county of Nottingham.
