THE GREAT YEAR 



exactly i st. in the Markeaton Plate — Scatwell had 

 8 st. 8 lb., and Corn Sack put in with 7 st. 5 lb., 

 carried 3 lb. extra in order that Weston might ride. 

 In a field of sixteen Glenhattie lost the Elvaston Castle 

 Plate by a head and a neck. Alasnam, whom Sir Abe 

 Bailey had confidently expected for the Cesarewitch 

 and then for the Cambridgeshire, carried off the Derby 

 Cup with the easy burden of 6 st. 10 lb., The Mid- 

 shipmite well up fourth with 8 st. 4 lb. 



All the horses that were fit were sent to Manchester 

 for the concluding meeting of the season, numbering 

 ten in all. Trowbridge ran behind that perplexing 

 creature Ugly Duckling for the Brackley Welter. In 

 the Rothschild Maiden Plate there was trouble. 

 Powerful won by a length and a half from Enniskeen, 

 whose trainer objected on the ground that Powerful 

 was not a maiden at the time of entry. As recorded 

 he had won a race at Newbury. The Stewards of 

 course upheld the objection, and furthermore fined the 

 trainer Barling £10. This was on the Thursday. 

 Next day Lahloo at his second attempt won the 

 Pendleton Maiden Plate by six lengths from Gripfast 

 and Sword Lily.
