Madame du Bany. Mr. Perkins bought her in 

 Ireland of Mr. Geo. Bryan, and got her very 

 cheap for 700 guineas. She was not long in 

 getting her purchase money back, and won him 

 between three and four thousand pounds in stakes 

 within three months. 



Chislehurst was a very lucky horse for Mr. 

 I'Anson. He bought him of Mr. Smallwood of 

 York, for 500 guineas when a yearling, and sold 

 him to Mr. Perkins for £1,500 when a two-year- 

 old. As a two and three-year-old he ran exceed- 

 ingly well, but lost all his form as a four-year-old, 

 and as Mr. Perkins tired of him, his former 

 owner bought him back again. He continued to 

 run badly till the end of the season, and was 

 unplaced both in the Cambridgeshire and the 

 Manchester Autumn Handicap. In the folio wing- 

 year his form returned, and he commenced 

 auspiciously by winning the Liverpool Spring 

 Cup and the Great Northern Handicap, both of 

 which he won with a bit in hand, and followed 

 up these victories by winning the Queen's Guineas 

 in a canter from a good field at Bath, and 

 then again at Salisbury, where he beat the 

 Duke of Hamilton's Cosmos. Altogether he 

 won Mr. I'Anson above £2,000 in stakes during 

 the year. In 1886 he ran once at Catterick, 

 and was sent to the Stud in 1887. Early in the 

 present year he was sold for a good price to go 

 abroad.
