 ceived 50 ft in a Match against the Duke of Bedford's 

 Eothen, 7st. 7lb., T.Y.C., 500, 300 ft ; thus closing his sea- 

 son of 1846 without defeat. 



But victory deserted him for the first time at Epsom in 

 1847, where Van Tromp ran third for the Derby Stakes, 

 won by Mr Pedley's Cossack, Mr Bouverie's War Eagle 

 second ; twenty-nine others not placed. 



At Newcastle-upon-Tyne, he was once more successful, 

 winning by a length the North Derby Stakes of 25 sovs. 

 each, with 100 added, beating Lord Zetland's Helias second, 

 Mr Taylor's George Hudson third, and Mr Conway's Chris- 

 topher fourth. 



At the same Meeting he carried off, by four lengths, the 

 Gateshead or Lottery Stakes of 10 sovs. each, with 50 

 added, beating Mr J. Scott's Tim Whiffler. 



Victory again crowned him at Liverpool, where he won 

 easily by half a length the St Leger Stakes of 25 scvs, each, 

 with 100 added, beating Mr Mostyn's The Swallow second, 

 and Mr L. Fox's Executor third. 



But at Goodwood Van Tromp was beaten by half a 

 length, being amiss at the time, by Mr Mostyn's Planet, for 

 the Racing Stakes of 50 sovs. each ; Duke of Richmond's 

 Red Hart third. 



Doncaster again placed the laurels on his brow : the St 

 Leger Stakes, one hundred and forty^ve subs., brought the 

 following diminished field of eight to the post.
