64 THE DERBY, 1833. 



Kevenge first, nobody knew why ; the Muley colt because 

 when amiss he had beaten Belshazzar, and a field of five ; 

 Forester, because he won the July Stakes, beating Jason, 

 and a large field cleverly ; and Glaucus, on account of his 

 having beaten Dangerous so cleverly at Warwick. 



The opening of the year 1833, brought Bravo and Prince 

 Llewellyn into the market ; then Glaucus took the situation 

 of first favourite, and Muley Moloch went out of the 

 market, and finally, upon " the Day," the odds were only 

 3 to 1 agst Glaucus, Forester standing second to him at 8 

 to 1. For who in their " seven senses" could expect Dan- 

 gerous to defeat Glaucus at Epsom, after the trimming 

 Glaucus had prescribed to Dangerous at Stockbridge. At 

 length the following horses came to the post :

The false starts were fewer than usual. At the first 

 one, the horses got as far as the call-back post — the others 

 were stopped nearer home. Forester got a capital start 

 both times, particularly the first one ; indeed we understand 

 Wright's orders were to keep in front, while the rider of 

 Catalonian was told to take the lead and keep it, and thus
