* In consequence of a representation to the stewards that several horses prepared for 

 starting, in this race, had not gone off with the rest, the above was in the first instance 

 declared a false start, and a fresh race was run as follows : — Col. Craddock's b. c. Sir 

 Walter by Whitworth out of Esther 1; Mr. Pierce's b. c. Wrangler by Walton 2; Lord 

 Eglinton's b. c. Archibald by Stamford 3. Antonio was not started. The whole question, 

 however, was subquently referred to the Stewards of the Jockey Club, whose decision 

 was as follows ; — 



Newmarket, Tuesday, October 5, 1819. 



The Stewards of the Jockey Club having taken into consideration the case laid before 

 them by the Stewards of Doncaster Races, respecting the St. Leger Stakes, and having 

 examined Mr. Lockwood, the person appointed by the Stewards to judge and start the 

 race, are decidedly of opinion that the race should have been adjudged to Antouio, and, 

 consequently, that the stewards should not have allowed a second race. 

 Signed by order of the Stewards of the Jockey Club. 



Edward Weatherby.
