 william Stakes by Catton, but beat Cossack, Ranger, 

 and Fairville. This was one of the finest races ever 

 seen, and won with the greatest difficulty. The next 

 day he won the prince's stakes of twenty-five guineas 

 each, with twenty-five guineas added, (six subscribers) 

 beating Hocuspocus by Quiz, Molineux, by Hamble- 

 tonian, Don Carlos, by Sir Charles, and Rodrigo, by 

 Sancho ; and on the following day he won the gold 

 cup, value one hundred guineas and upwards, beating 

 Lord Fitzwilliam's Cameleopard, Mr. Blake's Sprightly, 

 and Sir W. Milner's Maraoune. 



Tramp was beat twice when three years old, which, 

 with the above, constituted the whole of his racing. 

 The noted John Jackson rode him for all these races 

 except the cup at Doncaster, when James Garbutt rode, 

 owing to the former being above weight.
