After one or two attempts they were got off. When 

 Vanish took up the running, followed by Princess Alice, 

 Fantastic, Osprey, and Fair Helen, the others in a ruck at 

 their heels. At Tattenham Corner the pace was increased, 

 and soon told on the " weeds," who were glad to resign the 

 contest; Laundry Maid, the Emilia filly, and Osprey now 

 took the lead, with Mendicant well up : in this order they 

 ran to the distance, when Sam Day gave Mendicant her 

 head, and cantered in a winner by two lengths, Laundry 

 Maid the sa«e distance in advance of the Emilia filly, and 

 Osprey a bad fourth. Value of the stakes £3,850. Sam 

 Day was the fortunate rider of both the Derby and Oaks 

 winners. 



In the Liverpool Meeting fortune deserted her, being 

 among those without places in the Liverpool Cup, for which 

 she carried 7.t., won by Mr Meiklam's Lightning, 5 yrs 

 old, 8st. 61b., Lord Eglinton's Plaudit, 4 yrs old, 6st. 61b., 

 second, and Lord Warwick's Yardley, 6 yrs old, 7st. 101b., 



third. 



After this race Mendicant went amiss, and paid forfeit for 



all her engagements in 1846. 



In 1847, at the Newmarket Craven Meeting she was 

 again successful, beating Lord Glasgow's Conspiracy, 8st., 

 Mendicant, 8st. 71b., in a Match for 300 sovs., h. ft, D.M.
