26 THE CAMBRIDGE DRAG AND 



such a head that when we reached the first 

 check at the end of the Two Pot House 

 Drag, they flashed straight on up wind and 

 made for the place where they were usually 

 started for the other drag. It was too 

 severe for the numerous field, and I never 

 tried it again. There were some nine that 

 finished, and it was won by Mr. F. R. 

 Meuricoffre, of Naples, who has since proved 

 himself a good rider over many a steeple- 

 chase course in his native Italy. Here are 

 the last entries I made, at the close of my 

 undergraduate career, in 1879.
