The flag fell at the second attempt, Downpatrick 

 at once going to the front closely followed by 

 Victoria, the two being just clear of Woodbrook, 

 Shifnal, Wild Monarch, and Jupiter Tonans. 

 Sleight of Hand and Gunlock havino- refused the 

 first fence, St. George followed their example at 

 the next, whilst Regal came down. 



No change took place until nearing Valentine's 

 Brook, when Jupiter Tonans drew out with a long- 

 lead, which he maintained to the race-course, where 

 he gave way to Downpatrick.
