Whimsey ; and Mr Watt's b. f. by Belshazzar, out of Fanchon, sister to Lapdog, also 



started, but were not placed. 



Betting: 6 to 4 on Crucifix, 3 to 1 agst Sister to Cara, 9 to 1 agst Darkness, 12 t'- 



agst Iris, and 15 to 1 ag'st any other. 



After an amazing nnmber of false starts, all got away 

 except Merle, who ran against the post, and was left behind; 

 notwithstanding the flag was up, they went right through, 

 and made a good race of it, Iris winning by half a length ; 

 Crucifix was second ; having by her immense stride made 

 up for a very bad start. This, unfortunately for that justly 

 popular no])leman, Lord Albemarle, was pronounced to be 

 " no race," and all, except Merle, who was sent away, ran 

 it over again after several more false starts. The odds 

 now were 2 to 1 agst Crucifix, and 5 to 2 agst Iris. The 

 running in this heat was made by Crucifix, as far as the 

 hill, where Iris took it up, and enabled John Day to ease 

 his mare (Crucifix) in the race up it; on reaching level 

 ground he resumed his lead, and won in a canter, by two 

 Wngths ; Iris second, and Margaret colt, third. 



This race began to make people suspect that Lord George 

 at last had found a flyer; an opinion which received addi- 

 tional strength at Goodwood, when with odds betted in her 

 favour, she cantered oflT with the Lavant Stakes of 50 >-ovs.
