136 LONDON SHOW, 1892. 



Class 1. — Mares, four years old, — 13 entries. 



The premium winners were five good mares, two or 

 three of which ouglit to make very valuable hunters, and 

 are good enough to win in any show-yard. 

 Class 2. — Mares, three years old, — 14 entries. 



This Class contained some beautiful fillies ; three or 

 four of the best are by premium sires, and the youngsters 

 certainly do them credit. 

 Class 3. — Mares, two years old, — 23 entries. 



Amongst them were several blood-like galloping fillies, 

 and to five of these we awarded the premiums and fancy 

 that when they are ridden to hounds they will be able to 

 hold their own in good company. 

 Class 4. — Yearling Fillies, — 25 entries. 



Twenty-three appeared before us : they made a good 

 Class ; the winners were far ahead of the others and 

 ought to grow into nice mares. 

 Class 5. — Geldings, three years old, — 9 entries. 



This was not a strong Class, and with two or three 

 exceptions they were only of ordinary merit. 

 Class 6. — Geldings, two years old, — 10 entries. 



In this Class there were two or three nice horses, but 

 nothing very striking ; as a rule, the geldings were not as 

 good as the fillies. 

 Class 7. — Yearling Colts or Geldings, — 12 entries. 



This was not a strong Class : some of the five premium- 

 takers looked fairly well bred, and will most likely grow 

 into nice horses. ^_ ^^ Hutchinson. 



John Cooper. 

 The foregoing report shows that the mares and fillies 

 exhibited were superior to the geldings and colts, and this 

 can be easily understood when it is remembered that the 

 latter appeared for the first time in the Society's prize- 

 list ; and the same improvement in quality and numbers that 

 has taken place in the mares and fillies may be looked for 

 among the colts at future Shows.
