39. — Loutlierhourgli Case, 



After the Groodwood Stakes, 1838, the owner of 

 St. Luke, the second horse, objected to Louther- 

 bourgh, as having been improperly entered, and 

 described as a colt by Mameluke, his dam, foaled 

 in 1828, by Smolensko, out of Miss Chance, by 

 Trinidad, under which description he had run 

 for a plate at Goodwood in the proceeding year. 

 It appeared that this colt had been described and 

 entered in three two year old stakes as by Camel, 

 out of Fanny, by Phantom, dam by Skim ; and 

 secondly as Fanny, sister to Fashion, and had been 

 disqualified from winning, owing to the misrepre- 

 sentation. It appeared in evidence that he was 

 properly described in the Goodwood Plate ; and 

 that if no objection was made to his age, the 

 seventeenth rule could not be applied to the case, 

 as the horse had started before. 



The two year old stake won by Fanny was 

 given up to the Duke of Kichmond's Conciliation 

 upwards of seven years after the event transpired, 

 owing to the proof of Fanny being improperly 

 named.
