THE DERBY, 1835. 10? 



upon the list, at 3 to 1. It may be worthy of note, that in 

 this race two Ibrahims were started, both by Sultan, one 

 out of Pera, and the other out of Sister to Cobweb ; but 

 this difference in pedigree was not a sufficient distinction to 

 prevent much confusion arising from the adoption of the 

 same name by two individuals in the same year. 



On Thursday, the 4th of June, 1835, for the Derby 

 Stakes, the following fourteen horses, out of one hundred 

 and twenty-eight entries, came to the post : 



Mr Bowes's ch. c. Mundig", by Catton, out of Emma. — Scott 

 Lord Orford's b. c. Ascot, by Reveller, out of Ang-elica. — Nat 

 Lord Jersey's br. c. Ibrahim, by Sultan, out of Sister to Cobweb. — Robinson 

 Lord Jersey's ch. c. Silenus, by Reveller, out of Trampoline. — C Edwards 

 Duke of Richmond's c. by Camel, out of Leopoldine. — Boyce 

 Duke of Cleveland's c. by Memnoa, out of Pucelle. — Chifney 

 Mr Ridsdale's ch. c. Coriolanus, by Emilius, out of Linda. — Conolly 

 Mr Pettit's Ibrahim, by Sultan, out of Pera. — Wrig-ht 



Sir G. Heathcote's ch. c. Valeutissimo, by Velocipede, out of Jane. — Buckle 

 Mr J. Robinson's b. c. Stockport, by Lang'ar, out of Olympia. — Darling-

 Mr Ridsdale's g-r. c. Luck's-all, by Tramp, out of Flora. — G. Edwards 

 Duke of Rutland's c. by Catton, out of Darioletta. — Wheatley. 



The betting ring on the hill had been pretty quiet, com- 

 pared at least to what we have seen it on some former occa- 

 sions, and the following may be stated as the closing odds 

 at the breaking up of it : — 



7 to 4 ag-st Ibrahim, 3 to 1 ag-st Ascot, 6 to 1 ag-st Mundig-, 10 to 1 ag-st Coriolanus, 

 11 to 1 ag-st Leopoldine, 18 to 1 ag-st Pucelle, 50 to 1 ag-st Trim, 50 to 1 ag-st Valentis-

 of making running, one for Ibrahim, the other for Corio-
