28. — One Horse Jostling, and the others Jockey 

 Striking him. 



[The Duke of Grafton and Lord Grosvenor's 

 decision on the match between Tuscan and Dilet- 

 tanti.] — It appeared in evidence that the rider of 

 Tuscan, who came in first, jostled and crossed 

 Dilettanti, whose rider struck him.

 Claremont would have been entitled to the match 

 if his rider had not lost all claim to it by striking- 

 Mr. Walker's rider before he passed the ending- 

 post. We therefore think that both sides having 

 forfeited, the match ought to be void." — October, 

 1778.
