1 1/8 agst. Scatwell, 5/2 Vain Dream, 6/1 Cutaway, 7/1 King 

 Sol. Won by 2 lengths, 3 lengths second and third. 



Skyfuse, a home-bred son of Glenesky and Melton 

 Fuse, gave promise which he was not far short of 

 justifying by running second, beaten less than a length, 

 for the Princess Plate, splitting the joint favourites 

 Datine and Merry Din. The ^2000 London Cup 

 at Alexandra Park seemed to suit Royal Welsh. 

 Notwithstanding that he was far from leniently treated 

 with 8 st. 13 lb. he started favourite ; as the result 

 proved a false one. But the lapse in the career of 

 victory was brief. Lady Juliet's penalty may have 

 stopped her in the Welter Handicap at the Bibury 

 Club Meeting, but at the Newmarket Second July 

 more brackets were gained by the horses. Bright 

 Folly, 2 to 1 on, comfortably disposed of Datine and
