THE GREAT YEAR 



Only Quanta, the daughter of Quantock and 

 Mentha, went to Sandown, where she did no good. 

 This was one of the few selling races in which any of 

 the horses took part during the season. Skyfuse 

 came extremely near to winning the Downe Nursery 

 at Stockton, beaten a head and a neck by Adorna — 

 in receipt of 7 lb. — and Jaunting Car, March Along 

 favourite. At Birmingham Lord Glanely ran two 

 horses and both were second, Grand Fleet endeavouring 

 to give the winner of the Birmingham Handicap 38 lb., 

 and Willblend beaten a head for the Coventry Nursery. 

 The Houghton was not materially to swell the total. 

 Lady Juliet failed in the Fordham Welter, Willblend 

 just got a place in the New Nursery ; Scatwell, starting 

 at 100 to 14, and Dominion 100 to 7, were beaten in 

 the Cambridgeshire, behind Brigand, Diadem and 

 My Dear ; but Trowbridge made a minor contribu- 

 tion, for he followed the example of The Midshipmite 

 and oddly enough dead-heated with Kentish Cob for 

 the Scarbrough Stakes, Lord Glanely's colt this time 

 in receipt of weight — 8 lb.
