MALTON. 55 



privately by him to Mr. I'Anson at Doncaster. 

 He is a beautifully moulded colt, with fine quality 

 and capital limbs, and it seems as if Mr. Young's 

 game old horse is likely to make a great name as 

 a sire if his offspring fulfil their early promise. 



Dick Webster, by Silurian out of Miss Webster, 

 was bought privately after having passed through 

 the sale ring. 



He is about the biggest and most powerful 

 yearling we saw, and is likely enough to make a 

 steeple-chaser should he prove to be too slow 

 for the flat. He is built for carrying weight, and 

 should he be a galloper, and there is no reason 

 why he should not, he looks as if a penalty or 

 tAVo would not much inconvenience him. 



Mr. Ramsden bought a filly by Beaudesert out 

 of Leapfrog cheap at 2.50 guineas, for she is 

 smart, and like being quick out of the slips. 



The home-bred yearlings are very forward, 

 and are as good looking as we may expect to see 

 descended from such famous ancestors. Purse- 

 bearer's two fillies from Bonnie Marden and 

 XJmbria, are full of quality, move with great 

 liberty, and are very full of promise ; especially 

 the latter, Avhich took our attention very much. 



A colt by Claremont out of Virole looks like 

 galloping. Two fillies by Robert the Devil from 

 Dolly Hogg'' (sister in blood to Beauclerc) and 



'^ Dolly Hogg, by The Palmer out of Bonny Bell by Voltlgeur. 

 Beauclerc, by Rosicrucian out of Bonny Bell by Voltigeur.
