STARTING PRICES. 



The horses had taken their canter ; some had 

 gone down to the post, and were en route for it, 

 when the whole were recalled to parade in front of 

 the stand. This ceremony having been duly 

 executed during a slight snowstorm, the troop 

 retraced their steps to the starting field and at two 

 minutes past four the tiag fell to a pretty start at 

 the first attempt. 



At the second fence Abd el Kader came to grief, 

 and galloped away riderless ; Joe Graham also 

 blundered and nearly came down.
