46 GAL ATA.— 1834. 



Lord Chesterfield's b. c. Glaucus, by Partisan, 4 yrs old 1 



Mr Hall's Rocking-ham, by Humphrey Clinker, 4 yrs old 2 



Sir G. Heathcote's Samarcand, by Blackloek, 4 yrs old 3 



Mr Watt's Belshazzar, by Blackloek, 4 yrs old 4 



Lord Exeter's Galata, 5 yrs old ; Mr Hunter's Morotto, 3 yrs old ; Mr J. Day's Diana, 

 G yrs old ; Mr Greville's Chantilly, 4 yrs old ; Mr Etwall's Reveng-e, 4 yrs old ; and Mr 

 Forth's Famine, 4 yrs old ; also started, but were not placed. 



Betting- : 5 to 2 ag-st Glaucus, 9 to 2 ag-st Morotto, 6 to 1 ag-st Belshazzar, 13 to 2 agst 

 Diana, and 10 to 1 ag-st any other. 



Revenge sprang off at a splitting pace, Glaucus and 

 Chantilly following him, Samarcand lying in the rear, ter- 

 ribly out of his ground, till the leading horses reached the 

 turn for the straight run in ; here he went by several of 

 them, and on completing the turn was lying up with Glau- 

 cus, Eevenge, and Chantilly ; Rockingham at this point 

 quitted the second rank and took a position next Glaucus, 

 who was now carrying on the running ; — Before they 

 reached the distance, Revenge, Morotto, and Chantilly, 

 were defeated, and Galata, Diana, and Famine, tailed off. 

 Glaucus continued in front to the finish, and won easy by 

 more than a length. Samarcand would probably have been 

 second if he had not been so far away from his horses at 

 starting, which was occasioned by a stone thrown up by one 

 of the horses in advance having struck Buckle in the eye. 

 It is not worth while to mention the places occupied by 

 those not placed, as most of them pulled up as soon as they 

 discovered the inutility of any further struggle. 



Thus was this good mare's day gone by, and from this 

 time she came no more upon the turf, where she had shone 

 so brightly ; starting for eleven stakes, and winning eight. 

 The Oaks and Ascot Cup amortgst them. 



Galata was a brown mare, with a star on the forehead, 

 and a white mark on each hind leg ; her forte was speed, 

 and, like her dam. Advance, she could kill half her horses 

 in the first hundred yards — but she had no good lasting 

 " come again" qualities, and when once collared— aliem.
